It's not just that we need the T'wolves to lose games, we need the teams near to them in the standings to win games. Warriors, Mavericks, Lakers...we need them to get their act together to keep Minny in the #10 or #11 spot.
worst case scenario now imo is the Jazz win the play in get swept as an 8th seed in the first round, and the pick they would have had late lottery, had they lost the play in game, ends up turning into Victor or Scoot smh. But the odds are so bad for that too happen I am hoping, they just make the choice to sell some vets in the next month, and tank if the pick is that important. Otherwise I want them to get the 6 seed if they can and be a bracket buster.I think Dallas and GS will end up passing us (as long as GS weathers the storm with Steph)... so we likely land close to that range. I think if the Minny pick ends up like 17-18 we could pair it with a Cavs or Minny future pick and move up to the 9-12 range if we feel its worth it.
I really just want us to land Anthony Black. I think he's just such a great fit for the things we need. If we landed a top rated guy by jumping into the top 4 I wouldn't be too sad though.
I thought they were going to bench Rudy late… Dallas looked like ****… Minny was trapping and doubling Luka and they couldn’t hit anything for three quarters… finally got hot late.Minnesota lost to Dallas tonight!
We’d have picks 12/18/27 if the draft was today. Really not bad at all. I would absolutely love it if the Minnesota pick lands in the top-10.
FTFYWe need it to be 1, 2, 4.
Prolly pretty close to where we will be.We’d have picks 12/18/27 if the draft was today. Really not bad at all. I would absolutely love it if the Minnesota pick lands in the top-10.
Agreed. Though i think the jazz pick will be a bit worse. About 20th. my prediction is 12, 20, 26.Prolly pretty close to where we will be.
