    Can't believe the day is today. Anyone know the highest skyscraper to jump off of if we don't get a Top 4 pick?

    Chase Tower on Travis. You won't need it, though. We're getting a top 4 pick.

    Well, you said it :
    “I look at it as a coin flip to get a future AllStar
    I see all of Top4 as strong #1 overall prospects in most years”

    #2,3,4 are all the same to me. I keep flip flopping. Even at #4, we will receive top notch Allstar player.

    For example, let say we got #2 and after a long overthinking, we draft Jalen Suggs. We passed on Green and Mobley. This is a possible scenario.

    And after a few years, you discovered that was a big mistake, and we should drafted Green for example. As, Green became a superstar. So you regret your decision.

    On the flip side, let’s say we draft Suggs at #4. No, overthinking and no regrets. Simple.

    p.s I wouldn’t be upset if we get #2 or #3 of course.

    Just for S&G: I think the Rockets walk away with the third pick (or fourth but I’ll say third).

    A couple of years ago, the New York Knicks, were in the same situation. Worse record in the league and they sent Patrick Ewing to the Lottery. They ended up with #3.

    We deserve the number 1 pic. Our generational talent left us high and dry.

    C'mon basketball Gods....we deserve a little good fortune. Yao Ming injury, Tmac Injuries, CP3 injury, and JH demanding a trade.....

    Let’s say that you jumped off and then they discovered that there was a malfunction in the lottery machine. They redid the draft and the Rockets got #1.

    Presume we're going to lose, it will make it less bad when we do.
