    I know Doc Rivers said they'd give us the 1st rounder they owe us this year if they advanced to the playoffs, which about a week ago seemed likely. However, with the loss against Milwaukee tonight, they are out of playoff contention. But, if they made the playoffs, their pick would have most likely been about #14 or 15. Unless they get unbelievable luck in the lottery, their pick now will be just #13, even though they aren't in the playoffs. It's just one or two spots difference from what they would have had if they made it to the playoffs- does anyone know or want to speculate if we'll still get the pick?

    I would say doubtful now... but then again I would have said doubtful even if they did make the playoffs. Really sucks they lost today though .... you never know because Orlando does have that top 1-5 pick from Golden State, but I highly doubt they'll give up a lottery pick.
