2025-2026 Tank Race Prediction Contest and Current Results Thread

Even with the threat of Milwaukee passing us in the tank standings the worst outcome I can imagine at this point is 7th best odds which would still have an 85.8% chance of keeping our pick. I'm not happy with those odds, but at least, even in the worst case scenario we still very likely keep our pick.

Milwaukee definitely a threat... we have a couple things going for us though. With the swap they have its not like a huge advantage to be so bad that they get to 6ish. I think if they keep Giannis they won't want to look like the worst team in the league while he sits. If they move him they will likely get "something" that can help.
 
Hornets-Mavs and Bucks-Wizards are playing today. I am not even sure who to cheer for. Probably for the Bucks because there is no way that the Wizards would allow us to push them to the 6th place - they also have the top-8 protected pick.
I will root for Mavs and bucks

I think the hornets are actually pretty good and will make the playoffs

Hornets are now 12th in point differential at +1.6 (their win against us does do some heavy lifting with that).

Mavs I'm not really worried about either, but Hornets I'm completely over having any concern
 
More teams entering the tank race is a good thing. Creates more winning opportunities for other tanking teams
It just kinda depends on how it ultimately shakes out but I generally agree. We are almost certainly not falling below the Wizards so I would rather the Bucks win.

If we were not already decently-positioned it would be terrible.
