Well there are 11 teams outside the bottom 3 and only 3 teams in the bottom 3
2019 NBA Draft Thread
Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
I was just thinking that the last 4 lotteries(MIN, PHI, BKL, PHX) were won by the team with the worst record or highest odds, if you were bettor would you think that one of the bottom 3 with the same odds wins this year or think the field wins this time?

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
Yes, but bottom 3 is where you want to be for best draft position.
Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
Right, just explaining why there’s a better chance a team from outside the bottom 3 gets the top pick. There are 11 of them.Xylus wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 5:36 pmYes, but bottom 3 is where you want to be for best draft position.

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
My first two Tankathon runs for the next draft:
1st: Washington moves up 7 spots to nab Zion. We move down to 5 and select somebody I've never heard of.
2nd: We get #1 and get Zion! Yeah, baby!

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
Ja Morant was really impressive against Belmont. I had some John-Wall basketball concerns with him, but now I'm really only concerned about his personality. He seems too much of his own cheerleader, and I'm not sure he's coachable either (just a gut feeling, though).
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.
Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
Inf, are you at all concerned with his lack of competition that he's going up against? I guess we will get to see more of him in the tourney.INFORMER wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 10:18 pmJa Morant was really impressive against Belmont.

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
I think if we don't get 1 we are going to trade the pick for a veteran PG.
Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
Oh, oh. I haven't seen him play but had only heard good things until now.INFORMER wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 10:18 pmJa Morant was really impressive against Belmont.

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
Mild concerns, 'bone. I'm not saying pass on him. It does give me pause. But I may be wrong.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.
Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
Oh, and Dylan Windler is awesome. I'd move up from the second round to get him.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.
Re: 2019 NBA Draft Thread
Another random draft thought: I would draft Jarrett Culver over RJ Barrett.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

How do you think he’ll hold up defensively?INFORMER wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 10:18 pmJa Morant was really impressive against Belmont.
