Can't even remember the last time OKC faced a non trash team. |

Scenario A - LeBron demands that Randle be re-signed if he is to come here. In order to make that happen, because the Cavs pick is suddenly a borderline lottery pick, its enough by itself to trade Deng to Atlanta, thereby freeing up the room to sign George, re-sign Randle AND sign Lebron.
Scenario B - We trade the 15th pick plus Denver's 2018 2nd round pick to Detroit for the 11th pick, thereby ending up with a pick more valuable than the one we gave up.
---------------------
In reality, my best prediction is that Cleveland will have the 10th/11th best record in the league, while we will have the 12th worst record in the league. Philly gets the 12th pick, while we receive the 19th/20th pick. |

How is that supposed to work?
I thought that the Detroit first (protected 1 - 4) is going to the Clippers from the Blake trade. |
Sorry, trade with the Clippers then. I forgot about the Griffin trade. The point is the same though... trading up, ironically, to a spot that is better than the pick we gave up. Put Charlotte's 10th pick on the table if you prefer. |
If #10 or #11 becomes available for trade, the cost to move up 4 - 5 places in the draft order should be higher than a mid second round pick. |

Minnesota goes on the road and beats the Wizards. And Indiana is up 5 late at Philly with about a minute left. |

Oladipo just got murdered on a dunk attempt with Indy with the ball up 3. Didn't cost them, though, as Redick missed a tying 3 for the Sixers. Oladipo was pretty incensed. Rightfully so.
EDIT: Oladipo is shooting 4/21 tonight though lol. |

They just called an offensive foul on Oladipo. This game is literally being fixed at the end to give Philly a chance. Absolutely unconscionable. |

Indiana is going to hold on, despite the absolutely abominable officiating going against it late. |

Jeebus, OKC are such frauds. Can't wait for them to play real teams and fall apart at the seams. |

They’ve had a favorable schedule for the like, the last two months. It’s like the league forced by schedule to have them in the playoffs. _________________ Darvin Scam: https://media.tenor.com/images/3c15249955860a4b16b59e8ae035fb75/tenor.gif |

I'm just playing around. Sorry, didn't mean any offense. I was trying to have a pipe dream fan moment without my analytical hat on. Again, my apologies if I was abrasive to you in any way. _________________ LakersGround's Terms of Service

There's limping to the finish line, then there's the Knicks. They're being dragged through the mud by a mule with rope wrapped around their waists to the finish line. Having DS Jr. would've made it so much more tolerable, I feel bad for their fans.
Hornets & Pels too close, Charlotte has a legit chance to win 6 of their next 7 games after tonight. |

Dwight vs Davis is actually an intriguing match-up right now. Got so caught up in the standings I forget to appreciate the actual game & players |

Yeah seriously. It’s weird hearing his voice for another team.
Freaking Bill and Stu have been cringe to the ears. _________________ Darvin Scam: https://media.tenor.com/images/3c15249955860a4b16b59e8ae035fb75/tenor.gif |

I just can't get past the sound of his voice. There's a fine line between Harry Calas (former legendary Phillies baseball announcer) and Meyers. |

I was about to say "Dwight's lowkey had a good year" and then he switched onto Holiday and let him take a wide-open 3 pointer, with minimal effort to get out on him. Swish, Pels up 5. Never change, D12 |
