    This was a somewhat quietly great game for Keyonte, looked confident and comfortable in his role.

    Solving For Tanking, We're smart, let's figure it out

    Yeah I don't fully hate it, probably would be more middle tier, but the dream of a Cooper Flagg or a Victor Wembanyama get me through dark tank years. If we are **** and I know our next 5 picks are like 12, 25, 15, 9, 20 then I would really struggle to soldier on and care. Obviously later draft...

    Does that Wizards loss count as two losses? Tanking minds want to know

    That was one of the silkiest 4-point plays I have ever seen by Brice. He is such an elite shooter.

    Solving For Tanking, We're smart, let's figure it out

    Haven't kept up with this thread, but thought they did a decent job of coming up with some ideas: View: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/solving-tanking/id1483267868?i=1000700968442 Ideas I think would at least help: - No more pick protections in the 4-14 range. Basically you can protect...

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    If we're ending up flipping a coin with Washington that is disaster territory, we're flipping for 5th or 6th since we tied for last and both got jumped by 4 teams. Odds would be split for the actual lottery portion and coin flips should only decide order after that. I know there's like a 25% of...

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    I know stones and glass houses and all, but this Philadelphia team is so intentionally BAD. Its only a 9 point game now at half, but they look so much worse than that at home against Washington.

    Is the NBA Draft Lottery Rigged?

    I have shared my thoughts on this before, but I just really don't see it. Its fun to **** post and I will write my insane conspiracy theories but only tongue in cheek. 1. The lottery is audited by EY, a multinational organization who operates on trust and legality, and is massively larger than...

    Following Potential 2025 Draftees

    They'll still have the most teams in the Round of 32, but definitely not a great showing overall. 14 teams was likely too many, but this was also one of the weakest bubbles I've ever seen.

    VJ's athleticism is really jumping off the screen for me. Quiet scoring game so far, but he just has so many intangibles and he gets up so high got rebounds

    Some off-season trade ideas

    Unless we win the Cooper Flagg sweepstakes I am just not worried about being bottom 8 next year, the West looks like it might be even more brutal with Spurs/Blazers joining the race. I am still just higher on Cody than most but this feels like an 80% of just giving him away for nothing

    This heavy weight matchup is perfectly balanced according to ESPN

    I think Hardy has watched enough Flagg tape to embrace the tank this year

    Following Potential 2025 Draftees

    Saw that Baylor was 19-14 and was worried they wouldn't make the field and we wouldn't get to see more VJ (haven't followed college that closely this year), but apparently they should be safely in and projected as a 9 seed? What a weak bubble this year. Already don't get Harper and Ace, and...

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    60 days until the draft lottery, and then this ma 7 different players scoring 14+ for Washington is really impressive

    Yeah I remember Atlanta got a 100k fine earlier this year for sitting Trae, though that was compounded by it being the NBA cup

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    I wonder if we have to cut shenanigans for the rest of the year, this feels like it could be the "ok now cut it out or else" statement

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    Depends on what Kyrie does with his PO, no idea what the leaning is on that, and AD's health, but pivoting to tank after that "win-now" move would be all-time hilarious
