    The difference between worst record and 5th is 3.5% chance at Wemby so I'd still qualify us as in the running. In the past we wanted the worst record because it was either a 3 - 4 man draft so worst we could get was 4th. I'm not familiar enough with all of the other prospects, but initial buzz seems like some of the guys in the 3-8 range are still pretty elite prospects. Seems like being 5th worst team isn't as bad as previous 2 years. Just a guess

    If it's close, I wonder how blatant the tanking will get at the end of the season. Should be comical.

    We will win over 30 games because we have 3 things: Shooters, Size and a Defense Mentality!!!

    I might take the over on this, we've clearly improved. No guarantees either way but we'll see what happens.

    Looks like a fun core right now though.

    We likely won’t have a single average starter this season, certainly nobody who’s allstar level. How exactly will that make the 8th seed (assuming rockets are stupid enough and poorly run enough to try for that)

    Let's make a poll on who will be the Finals MVP: Jalen, Jabari, Alpi, or Tari?

    You don't think if everything goes perfectly they could have a ceiling of .500?

    I don’t think we will be the worst… but I wouldn’t be surprised if after the all star break we started tanking to be bottom 3/bottom 4.

    Yep, Momster is much cooler than DonKnock. And I am sure she won't be accused of raping anyone anytime soon.

    I enjoy watching them much more than the old dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble shoot ISO game.

    He did have a below replacement level score, so it’s technically correct.
