Game Thread NBA Draft Lottery - May 12, 2025

[The Midnight]

That’s ok VJ is going to end up the actual star of this draft.

We ain't getting VJ.

Wonder if Dallas trades #1 for Giannis?

 

[Coach Ellis]

there is no silver lining when the system is constantly rigged against you...

The silver lining is that you simply can’t hope to tank your way out of a bad situation. You have to be proactive, not reactive. Jazz can’t be passive in building their team moving forward.

Not sure how the Jazz fix this, but I’m definitely hoping Tre Johnson ends up being a franchise caliber player.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

I'm choosing to sulk and pout

Castle might not be able to shoot. Harper might not be able to shoot.

Flagg/Wemby is insane. They didnt get that. Im trying to find a silver lining in this **** sandwich.

Yeah, but Harper feeding Wemby is like, **** me.

The NBA has been rigged for 30 years. Why is anyone upset. This is wwf with a bouncy ball

Yeah, it is so rigged that this season will probably end with the 7th different team winning championship in 7 years.

The Luka trade not looking so bad anymore.

Here's the problem with the Jazz: The fans rabidly support the team no matter who is on the court. So there's no benefit to giving the Jazz a high lottery pick. We're a bunch of happy campers either way.

If we were rioting or burning Donovan Mitchell jerseys and calling for so-and-so to be fired, then we'd get more attention.

 

[The Jazz Wonderbra]

It stinks bad.

Lebron leaves Cavs... they get 2 consecutive first picks.

Luka to LA. They get the first pick.

Lebron in the draft is from Cleveland... who gets the number 1?

Derrick rose is from Chicago... who gets #1?

Hurricane Katrina - New Orelans devastated... who gets the #1 pick?

If there is a major news story thst jeopardized a fan base, the league plays gods with the top pick.

Honestly, I dont know if I am watching a single game next year.

 

[fishonjazz]

I hope Ashley gets a UTI.

LMFAO

 

[kcgar]

I think this means that Spurs trade for Giannis

Wonder if Dallas trades #1 for Giannis?

Nico trading it to the Sixers for Paul George. . .
