They'll open the first envelope, the #14 pick will go to Charlotte, and then we'll know.
OK, it probably won’t be over quite that fast, I’m just bracing for the worst.

Respect to all those that tried to get some good karma with the daily simulations on the different sites.
I chose to patiently wait and here I am , tuned in and ready to spend the next half hr or so with my Suns family as the clock ticks
I am in Ireland. It is 12:30 am. How can I watch this live? And yes, i know I will be even more upset when i have to get up at 6am after we get the 4th pick.
First syllable of Doncic: DOAN or DAWN? Or neither?

I went to google translate and "Dawnchich" sounded just about right.
If you don't mind a robotic voice you can also set the language to serbian and put in "Dončič" you get the best stuff. Also works for "Kokoškov".

I am in Berlin at the moment and I am watching via reddit/nbastreams. There is a sticky post there offering a few streams - took the first one and it is working like a charm. As far as our pick is concerned, I am hoping while expecting the worst but believe we should be able to get a great player with any of the top four picks. Additionally, there is the real possibility this year that a "worse" pick could net us a "better" player and thereby turn out to be a blessing in disguise - unless we get first and manage to pull something of close to what Boston did last year, of course. I still can't believe Boston came out so far ahead in a deal, again. People just need to stop doing any business with Danny Ainge, it seems this just never ends well for the other side.
Kinda neat having Finley and Socks there next to JJ.
