Right, the reach is not figuring Detroit wins out and the other two lose out, but believing that Stern would fix the lotto portion and gift Orlando the top pick.

VW to Portland :pray:

With this dumbass winning streak still alive, the Pistons will be lucky if they land Oladipo.

7th pick is still not that bad, we will probably get one of;
Noel, McLemore, Bennett, Smart, Porter, Muhammed, Oladipo
If we get worse it is between Burke and GR3.

At this point, we'd be lucky to get either Shabazz or Oladipo.

This win streak has done nothing but hurt us. The year the celtics failed to grab Oden or Durant in the draft, after trying to tank an entire season for them, they turned their pick and Big Al into KG and other pieces into Ray Allen. A shakeup like this would do wonders for the franchise. Why not put our pick, and anyone but Drummond, out there and see if we can bring a true superstar to jump start this team?

^Agreed. Losing doesn't guarantee a superstar, but generally speaking...a worse record correlates with a higher pick, barring some luck from a team with low chances getting into he top 3.

Unfortunately it looks like, with this winning streak...we could potentially end up 9th, and then have a team behind us get into the top 3 and push us to 10th or something like that. In that case...McLemore, Shabazz, Noel, Porter...you can forget about those guys, they will be gone...
