2023 NBA Draft Megathread

If we would’ve had two lotto picks would our odds of moving up gone up or stay the same? For all you draft lotto guru’s
And if the Jazz made the playoffs because they were too good to tank? Potentially zero.

Making the Jazz worse down the stretch was as or more important than anything else.
 
this is why I hated the trade. We helped the wolves and got little back. That pick IMO is 50% chance of being a second rounder. I would’ve rather just traded Conley to anyone else for 2-4 seconds. Having two lotto picks in this draft would’ve been huge.

As for the rest of your post. I still like where we are at. We will be able to choose between multiple players I like at both 9, and 16. For this reason I don’t want to see a trade unless it’s into the top 3 or for one of the twins

Edit: only want to trade for a twin if one falls a few spots.

You do realize that at absolute worse case which would be the Lakers having the worst record in the league it is a 52% chance of them being in the top-4.

If I had to guess right now I would say the pick ends up in the 8-12 range.

And in the case that the Lakers tank their asses off to keep their pick and succeed, that 2nd is virtually a late 1st.
