Official Utah/Minnesota/Philadelphia Pick Watch

Cant remember which thread we were talking about taking the 4th pick and losing to the chance at top 3. Ya, give me that deal please. Aint not way we are getting into the top three.
Clarkson will be back really soon and sexton probably too. We are probably making the playoffs. Only hope now is that we knock minny out of the playoffs.
 
If Ant and KAT don't play the remaining games, which the probability has increased, the T'Wolves pick is a lottery pick.
 
Would be hilarious if it comes to a coin toss... cos we're keeping both picks right? LOL ..
Don’t jinx it. I know you think the income is irrelevant but after being way too invested in this over the decades, I can promise you that we could walk out of that coin toss with an outcome that screws us. Don’t underestimate it just because it doesn’t seem feasible to you now.

I mean cos the outcome would be irrelevant.. so would there still need to be a coin toss?
 
with all the focus of other teams pushing Minnesota down, I wonder if it will really just come down to us needing to push them down.

Don't say that too loudly, there are those here that wants us to win-every-single-game-no-matter-what-picks-be-damned-playoffs-is-all-that-matters-no-matter-how-short-handed-or-un-manned-or-un-equiped-or-that-Ainge's-action-has-made-it-abundantly-cleary-that-we-should-be-tanking-WIN-WIN-WIN-WIN-WIN-the-more-WINS-the-better-i-want-it-NOW-not-tomorrow-not-next-week-NOW-NOW-NOW-NOW-WIN-NOWWWWW
 
I think that if we are going to grab the 13th pick OR the 15/16th pick and playoff experience, I would opt for the latter.

If we are talking about the 7th pick OR playoff experience and the 15/16th pick then its a no brainer... go for the pick.

But playoff experience isn't a bad thing for rookies or a rookie coach.

Agreed. I think my preference right now is simply that we win more games than the t-wolves. Would be so satisfying to finish better than them and knock their (our) pick down a spot ourselves. Its fun to root for other teams (lakers, pelicans, mavs, etc) to knock them down a spot but it would be pretty awesome for it to be us.

Plus with as good as we have seen this team play without clarkson and sexton it makes me wonder if we got into the playoffs fully healthy and clicking and maybe get some luck (our opponent has injuries or has a few bad shooting games) then maybe we could make a little noise. One things for sure, if we make the playoffs then ALL the pressure will be on our opponent to beat us. They might play a little tight and our guys should play loose as **** with no pressure on them and no expectations to meet.
