In anger or joy? I honestly can't tell

That guy? Oh yeah, I remember him

I detest the fact the pick is Top 4 protected. ****ing horrible.

That's pretty much where I'm at, but I would be doing my best to drink the kool aid if the Jazz did get him. He's one of my favorite non-Jazz players ever.

I would trade anyone on the team other than Lauri and a few picks for Scoot. Trouble is I don't think the Blazers would do it.

Ok, they're better but not much better. Which is why the lottery almost never plays out the way the odds say they will. Which is why I don't get the complaining about how the Jazz should have lost more games.

But it just goes to show that the chance doesn't equate to success. The odds just aren't that great for the lottery. The Blazers won like 16 more games than the Pistons and got a better pick. Do the Spurs get the number 1 pick if they lose another game? Who knows, it's all random.

I bet Pistons fans are absolutely thrilled right now. They got the 5th pick!

A legitimate shot? Not really. Heck, their legitimate shot at a top 4 pick didn't matter at all.

If we both lost all our money, the odds wouldn't matter much to me.

But the two greatest players in Jazz history were drafted at 13 and 16. Plus the Jazz had two top 5 picks since then. Unfortunately the Kanter/Exum duo didn't pay dividends.

Are they? Who knows. It's possible. It's also possible they get a meddling player who doesn't live up to their potential. You're getting really emotional here. I hope you're ok.

But all the odds aren't great. That's just how it goes.

I mean, if the Jazz could have found the perfect combo of losses to somehow guarantee themselves the first pick, sure, they should have done it . I'm sure the Pistons thought they did and they dropped to 5th.

That they had a horrible season and got a 5th pick. Getting the lesser Thompson bother doesn't seem worth it for as horrible as they were

People getting mad because the Jazz doesn't win the lottery is just comical. Absolutely comical. Absolutely stupid as ****, but absolutely comical.

Apparently, the best strategy was to be the worst team in the league so they'd get the 5th pick this year

Yes

How?

Bad luck for the Pistons
