Winning for no reason. Tucker being an idiot and Teletovic draining threes :noway:

Welp good morale boost I guess. Go Suns, woo... so thrilled for this win. Like I'm gonna go out and celebrate probably.

This is a "take that McD" for the whole Jay Wright thing.

what happens if we end up tied with BKN?

This **** franchise and stupid pointless wins. Does anyone in the front office understand how the draft works?

I guess I'll call it vengeance for them knocking us out of the playoffs in 94 and 95. Of all years and times though. And of course, up next, the Pelicans, setting it up perfectly for us to slide right behind Brooklyn, who, even though they don't really need to, are resting players who help win. We, of course, keep playing all of our 3 pt snipers and our main energy guy.

If we get the fifth/sixth pick McD should be fired. We cannot even tank properly :noway:

SUNS luck takes over. Brooklyn get the #1 pick because McD just had to beat Houston for no logical reason

Split odds. They basically take the # of winning combinations the 3rd and 4th worst teams get, add them together and divide by 2. They also do a coin flip to determine order if neither move up, and that coin flip also determines who gets the extra combination if combined combinations ends up an odd #.

So out of 1,000 combinations, 3rd gets 156 combinations and 4th gets 119, so add those together for 275. Coin flip winner gets 138 and higher pick if neither move up, and loser gets 137.

But at this point, I wouldn't bet we'd stay tied.

Of course, there is always the chance that we drop to 4th and still jump to 1 or 2, and 3 drops one or two spots, and we could look back and think "good thing we beat Houston" but that is about as rosy as you can make it.

Vets don't want to be supplanted by a lottery pick next year

Its because Watson's ears have been hostaged by the veterans, who wants their productivity and minutes no matter what.

Good example for the youth (hard work), but in a sense it also means some other youth are losing minutes.
And it also hurts the draft pick, which the players HAVE no incentive to care for.

McD should call it.... rest Chandler, Tele, Tucker for the rest of the season.

This was our first win in our black uniforms. Fun fact of the day.

This should have happened already. It's a little late. Hopefully none of it matters.
