2022 NBA Draft Lottery

The BBS has coalesced around a banger PF and a pass-first PG to complement Yao.

 

this…Patrick looks like he eats at Arby’s

 

I'm prepared for the 5th pick. I can accept it. What really worries me is the Rockets passing on Jabari if he's available.

 

Haha sometimes.

The 14 lottery teams all have a chance to get 1-4.

There's obviously a lot of random outcomes, but if say #14 moves from 14 to #2 (after Rockets at 1!) then that pushes everyone 2-13 back one. If 8 moves to 2, and no one else moved up Spurs won't be affected.

Here's a good chart of odds:

Here's the tankathon simulator.

You'll see how different teams moving up can affect the teams

Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here

 

Chet
Jabari
Paolo

In that order.

 

Does Jalen love the idea of playing with Banchero? I don't think he said anything like how KPJ was open about green.

 

I think we should be looking for any team in need of a SG moving into the top 5. Ivey has moved to the top of several boards and Sharpe is still a wild card. If teams are willing to draft them based on need, we may still be get one of our top 3 targets even if we fall to #5.

 

Can you show me the Jalen love on Banchero?

 

It's all over Jalen instagram during March Madness.



They also reciprocate their admiration for each other frequently.

 

Damn. Gonna have to have the list of teams with me so I know what the top 4 is looking like then.

 

Additionally, here is a page listing team needs.

 

Damn that's pretty sweet

 

Although... kind of funny that MIL has 3 high/severe needs and Knicks have only 1 on this list

 

I guess any page like that will be somewhat subjective, but in all honesty, the Knicks are probably getting less out of their players than they should. Thibs seems to be a pretty arrogant/stubborn SOB to the detriment of the team.

 

It'll likely to be a ATL/DAL type Luka/Trae structured trade. Pretty sure there's no Luka type players in this draft so getting another pick while getting a player on our top 3 board would be amazing. Seemingly low risk with top 3 being fairly close

 

These nerve-wracking odds just remind me how lucky we got last year…and frankly how lucky we would be to avoid the 5th pick this yr. Picking #5 would suck; you can’t pick a high school guy that hasn’t played competitive ball in over a year #5; sorry.

 

Rip we might pick him

 

The good thing about the draft lottery is it's scheduled so it's not like F4 season

 

Yep

 

Not wrong. Just the tankathon simulator is straight garbage. Every time I do it, we get the 5th pick the vast majority of the time.
