Why would that be ideal? Ideal for me would be Sixers 1 Lakers 4 and Kings lose their pick to Chicago. I don't care how we get the top pick whether it's with our pick or Sacramento's. I don't want the Kings getting a good player so they can continue to stink until 2019 so we get their pick. And why would you want the Lakers picking 3rd? We wouldn't get their pick. I also don't think it's loaded top 2. It's loaded top 6 or 8 depending on the prospects you like. I just want to be picking in the he top 6 but would take the top pick so we can choose whoever we want.


I'm pretty sure he meant pre-lotto positions.

Even pre-lotto, nobody is passing Brooklyn for the worst spot. Ideally we land 1&4, and I don't care about next year or 2019. I want two picks in top 5 and Sac pick in 2 years is just a bonus and maybe a piece to package up down the line to get a big deal done to put us over the top in the east.

Would be nice if Durant showed up for this game against the Kings.

Kerr really knows when to go after the officials, seems to always revitalize his team.

Even if Kings lose, I think we need to expect less out of this kings pick. They are much better than what their record say

Yeah, I just view the Kings as extra ping pong balls. We will be worse than them.

Whenever it seems like Warriors are about to take the lead they turn it over or do something else stupid.

Warriors relaxing too much this game. Might be point shaving or something, Kerr's drama making them sold the act

Why can't our bigs play physical like DMC? We have a lot of bigs for them.to worry about foul trouble

With all of their recent injuries, I'm not so sure.

Warriors shot 2-17 in the fourth.

Draymond Green just committed 3 turnovers in 26 seconds.

That'll be game.

It's funny how the NBA's best teams like the Cavs and Warriors seem to inconveniently take a night off against the Kings yet they lose to bad teams like ours (without Embiid) and the Suns.

Haha, people get on such roller coasters with this stuff.

As a Tank Commander, I have to always remind folks, don't get too high or low with this stuff. The best thing working for the pick swap is not the KANGZ but rather the rest of the NBA also being weird in the 2-10 range of the Lottery.

I hate the Cavs and Warriors even more now. Can't help us with anything.

Man.. I don't know if the Warriors is earning gambling money with these upsets. These go back before they blew that 3-1 lead.
