Who will get the top pick? •Lakers pick is top three protected; if it falls out, it goes to Philadelphia(via Suns/Bucks/Sixers trade) •Brooklyn sends their pick to Boston(via Kevin Garnett/Paul Pierce/Jason Terry trade) •Nuggets have the option to swap picks with the Knicks(via Carmelo Anthony trade) •Kings pick is top ten protected; if it falls out, it goes to Chicago(via Omri Casspi/first round pick for J.J. Hickson trade; via Andrew Bynum for Luol Deng trade) •Raptors get the less favorable pick of the Knicks/Nuggets(via Andrea Bargnani for Marcus Camby/Steve Novak/Quentin Richardson/2016 first round pick trade) •Wizards pick is top nine protected; if it falls out, it goes to Phoenix(via Markieff Morris for Kris Humphries/DeJuan Blair/first round pick trade)
The top of this draft class looks so damn weak. I guess Dragan Bender is the sexy pick just because he's seven feet and only 18, but do any of the other guys have superstar potential? Poor Philly. They'll never draft any great prospects.
0.7%... pretty big difference, though still possible. And, I'll go ahead and predict it. Jazz get a top 3 pick... sticking another dagger in Rockets fans hearts for the 2015/2016 season.
All I care about is......... Lakers dropping out of the top 3 and losing the pick. It will make my week.
