Significantly worse. It's kind of amazing how bad it's got.

It wasn't? It felt like a waste, and doing the same thing next season will feel like a waste.

Who's the fifth best prospect next year, so we can all get excited about yet another wasted season.

Yeah, I didn't know of the NBA has a trade value chart like the NFL does, but that would be a bad NFL trade, let alone a sport where higher picks are at a much bigger premium.

I don't think it was rigged at all. I do think the Jazz are cursed when it comes to the lottery, given they've never moved up ever, and this feels like the right result given that tanking isn't historically in this team's DNA. Oh well, hopefully the 5th pick is good.

All that tanking for the 5th pick. Yay.

I enjoyed this series so much, especially to see him get some revenge on the whiney *** Slovenian on the Lakers. And because it was the Lakers.

I don't know if I'm excited, but I'm still on the Hardy bandwagon. When the FO doesn't sabotage him the Jazz punch above their weight level.

Also known as a cannonball

Is Johnson really part of the consensus top 5? Not that I take mock drafts as gospel, but every one I've seen has Flagg/Harper/Ace/VJ in the top 4, but 5th is all over the place.

Yup, now I want the Jazz to lose.

I feel like both these takes are true. This sort of *********** is the ultimate test of ones professionalism.

It seems like the consensus top 4 are Flagg/Harper/Ace/VJ. Is there a consensus 5th or is that where it gets more iffy?

You know, I'm finally in the fifth stage of the tank. Early in the season it was denial, I didn't think they would do it. Around November it was anger, and I vowed to not watch a Jazz game this season. Around the deadline it was bargaining, where I thought they might make a trade to make this...

Pretty soon the Jazz will have every 2nd round pick in 2037.

Wonder how Mr. Modern Day Slavery feels about all of this.

Yeah, when you edit half a sentence to your liking, that tends to be the outcome.

So he should have said, "better", "lottery position", and really should have said top 3 picks because picks 1-3 have the same odds. You're right, I feel horrible now. It was so obvious. Who could have misunderstood that point?

By all means, please enlighten me, what does this mean I know that but we want to clinch a top 2 pick have a chance at number 1 pick

Yup, when you're the worst team in the NBA, that #1-2 pick is all but guaranteed. Sincerely, The Detroit Pistons
