BPI projects 38 wins and the 9th seed for the Suns, 12th pick in the draft.

As long as they dont have a top 8 pick, i m happy with that trade

This makes me very happy. I know the trade is done and no point of looking over our shoulders, but still lol..

They are clearly better than the tanking teams and that is great. That being said we just saw the Mavs get the #1 pick so who knows. Good thing is the Wizards have first swap rights so it can't actually be pick 1 anyway.

Agreed on the motivation to root for them lol.

Kon Knueppel ROY favorite? Can't believe how good he has been. I had my doubts about him, but still liked him as a legit lottery pick, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't question the Hornets taking him 4th.

Jeremiah Fears is amazing for a guy that just turned 19 years old too. 19 points 8 steals tonight. Pelicans rookies are super fun at least. Not sure if it makes up for trading potentially two top 5 picks away, but it's something

Among young Pelicans young players, MIssi is guy i like the least. I think he got really overrated among fans last year.

Still no excuses for what they did with pick. They suck.
