I had some better luck, as I didn't like your results:

1, 5, 2, 3, 1

One thing Lavar Ball is right about though:

“All I said was that my boy is going to play for the Lakers,” LaVar Ball said. “I’m going to speak it into existence.


I'm gonna have confidence that we're going to keep the pick because I believe in the Law of Attraction. You don't have to speak about it all the time but whatever fanbase has the most belief will get it. It sounds like BS but the laws of the universe are real

If you trust your first gut in the example above, it's a . All we need is ONE good spin, the others don't matter above, and they won't matter after we get No.1 on May16th.

Btw, we got No.1 my first and only spin today.

The number 4 may be our fanbase's most hated number, which coincidentally was Luke Walton's number.

Adam Silver really needs to step in on the tank. We really haven't tanked until very recently (and it was a short one at that). I remember many years ago, Dbag Stern stepped in when teams were sitting players (more for rest than the tank). Stern said that fans pay alot of money to watch a game and teams should not be sitting anybody. The NBA has changed big time. The Suns have sat their entire team which is BS. The league needs to do something about it.


I guess they should do something about if you love communism. But personally I don't like when the league makes basketball decisions.

If they want to make a new cba thats one thing but telling team what lineups they have to play is whole another thing.


I guess Silver was listening to me.

well Silver is more concerned with big names on playoff teams sitting out prime time games than bottom feeders tanking

Suns are really dysfunctional.

No one wants to play for them. Knight refuses to play for them because they screwed him.

Brandon Knight not playing for rest of season, refused to play for Suns against Kings

That FO is in trouble too.

Anybody that thinks DLO makes lazy turnovers should watch Booker. Especially that last turnover he made.

I get that we shut down Mozgov and Deng, but those guys sucked this year. Phoenix has been shutting down all their good players, and Bledsoe and Knight actually had problems with it initially, from what I read. Chandler admitted that he was just doing what the front office wanted.

Not a chance, and it could make things worse. The Nets are the only team Phoenix has any chance of beating the rest of this season.

Phoenix has a upcoming game with Brooklyn, if they win against the Nets, i think we will have the #2 spot secured.

Booker made 6 of them in his first 14 minutes of play.

The Nets could lose that game and still conceivably hit 20 or 21 wins with all the other tankers and middling teams on their schedule. They beat Memphis recently so even a win against a good team is not out of the question.

god, could we possibly move Deng or Mozzy for him? At least we could get something for one of those two:
--
The Suns did not find a trade partner interested in Knight at the deadline, and his salary growing to $13.6 next season, $14.6 million in 2018-19 and $15.6 million in 2019-20 is the biggest factor to his hurting value.

Yeah it doesnt matter its not happening

They only have 12 games left and are 6 games head of us. It would take an almost impossible streak for us to get the 1 seed
