    exactly. We all need to calm down. lol

    Jalen and Sengun, the children, had great games.

    We got the 4 players from the best draft already.

    next year will be gravy.

    I know we're definitely biased, but I also think we got the short end of the officiating stick a lot during the Harden years. Even in the 0-27 game they waved off a couple of made 3s. I really love the Rookies we have now, though. They're young, talented players that also seem to have the right mental makeup for being great pros, and I hope we can draft someone who fits in really well with them (I also hope we can move on from Wood/Gordon ASAP).

    We still have the worst record in the league, so I think our tank is safe. Hopefully.

    Again…if the goal is to ruin our draft odds, then this is a great strategy. Im sure OKC and Orlando fans are incredibly jealous of our recent wins and very upset that their odds of Jabari or Chet have gone up!

    Unless there's a surefire lottery pick that everybody really wants, it's not the end of the world if Sengun/Green both gets 20+ points in a game with a dub.

    the worst record guarantees top 5, but it still possible to get the first pick at 2/3/4th worst record.

    What's irksome is that we are still playing the vets sht tons of mins.

    Schroder, kpj 30 mins each?!?!

    Silas is such a dumb ass.

    Portland plays OKC twice. They better keep this same damn energy or lack thereof that they had against us when they play them. I’m expecting to see Jackie Moon and the rest of the Flint Tropics suited up in Blazer jerseys.

    OKC, unlike Houston, actually understands the value of getting the highest draft odds possible.

    I know people are pissed about tanking, but I bet you if we intentionally tank we would probably not get a top 3 pick. It’s bad karma. We naturally tank and we’ll get a top 3 pick. I will say this, you much rather win if it means the rookies going off than win because of vets. I know this may be unpopular but tonight was a good win. We saw a glimpse of what Jalen and Sengun combo could do. Add a top 3 pick and we are golden

    Even bad teams win. Remember Orlando did something similar last month or so where they went from having to the worst record to third worst.

    What Portland is doing is pathetic. You don’t pull your healthy players to tank.

    wait…John Wall says otherwise.
