Dang it.

We got N.O. playing better with three winnable games left. They just beat Houston. I hope they don't make a run


We are holding on by a thread here.

OH well.. too bad.. Harris is playing better anyway, may be we can find a nice PG next year with the GSW pick...

Karma is karma.. tankers will tank.. nobody will ever accept a draft pick from them ever again.. that's what they get.

We'll do just fine without a pick this year.

Bring on the playoffs!!!

I admit I come from a world where skin is thicker than it is here, at times. Perhaps I should try harder to adapt. I've come a long way, I think, but obviously a long way to go. I respect this board and hope it will be patient with me as I learn to communicate more respectfully.
 
Well the only game tonight that was relevant to this did what they had to.

Except that NOH might pass the Warriors now...

**** me. That was a huge game. I'm one of those draft pick ********. All I'm asking for is one.

As am I......
 
yeah, i honestly thought we'd get this one. not that this changes my position about playoffs/pick for the jazz's own spot.

oh well... if GSW doesn't win another game, then we just get two picks in NEXT year's draft.
 
I still think there is a chance we get this pick. We have a chance at it falling to 8 still, but it probably won't. So even then we still have the chance they get slotted at #7 and get bumped. That 8 and 9 seed in the lottery hits more often than its odds would indicate I think. I like our chances still. Let's hope one of those last three games GS picks up a win.
 
If there ever was a time for the basketball gods to step in and punish the unworthy, its now. I have a feeling that its going to happen.

The problem with that is that they have to win another game to even be in the 7th spot.

i wondered how true this was so i looked at the last few drafts out of curiosity. here is the recent history of 8-14 picks jumping up into the top 3.

2011: cleveland (from LAC) jumps from 8 to 1
2010: none
2009: none
2008: chicago jumps from 9 to 1
2007: none
2006: none
2005: none
2004: none
2003: none
2002: none
2001: chicago (from clippers) jump from 8 to 2
2000: none

so it looks like it happened three times in 12 years (or 36 total top 3 pick opportunities) -- 8.3% of top 3 picks since the turn of the century go to teams 8-14.

Pull yourself together man you're scaring me.
 
GS is not winning another game. Our hope now lies in Stern and his ability to screw a team for defacing his product.

As of 2008, with 30 NBA teams, 16 qualify for the playoffs and the remaining 14 teams are entered in the draft lottery. These 14 teams are ranked in reverse order of their regular season record and are assigned the following number of chances

1. 250 combinations, 25.0% chance of receiving the #1 pick
2. 199 combinations, 19.9% chance
3. 156 combinations, 15.6% chance
4. 119 combinations, 11.9% chance
5. 88 combinations, 8.8% chance
6. 63 combinations, 6.3% chance
7. 43 combinations, 4.3% chance
8. 28 combinations, 2.8% chance
9. 17 combinations, 1.7% chance
10. 11 combinations, 1.1% chance
11. 8 combinations, 0.8% chance
12. 7 combinations, 0.7% chance
13. 6 combinations, 0.6% chance
14. 5 combinations, 0.5% chance

Good find.

So I was right, right?

Those are the odds just to jump to first too I think.

So its hitting at a 8.3% clip, and its only suggested that for the first pick it should only be between 2.8-1.7 for the 8th and 9th spot.

Somebody correct me if I am wrong.
