2024-2025 Tank Race

Just going to say it I don’t care… I’m praying that Ant has a season ending injury. Does that make me bad, a jazz fan or are do they just go together?
I don't want antman to get injured. I don't want the wolves to have excuses. I want antman to have the best year of his career and STILL the wolves miss the playoffs leading him to demand a trade. Fire the coach. Flip Gobert. Do desperate things. And settle for getting a bunch of other teams picks for Antman.

Nah… I’d rather Ant get injured, get the top two picks this year then let Ant have the best year of his career next year, miss the playoffs, then he requests a trade, and then trade Gobert.

OK, now tell us what are your dreams about Cleveland.
 
Chicago is making calls already Rumors about Pat Williams, Lonzo Ball, Nikola Vucevic and Zach Lavine out there. Nothing on Giddey or White that I've seen.

It feels like they may want to start a firesale early before they are too far from the bottom. They may end up being more formiddable in this race than they are right now.

They are playing with fire. If they trade anyone it opens up more THT minutes.

It would be hilarious and sad at the same time if THT blew up their tank. Chicago has not tanked since forever, so if THT would randomly destroy the one year they did actually pull the plug it would have great comic value. I mean sure you could argue that they tanked at the end of Hoiberg era and during Boylen era, but some Chicago fans seem to think that wasnt the case.

According to Fischer their main goals are to shed salary and improve their draft position. He says everyone is likely to be available, so it could be a real firesale. And they could start early and sell at discount rates... but that one I wont believe until I see it.

Im not liking how the tank race is going so far.

I think it's been fairly optimistic, what has you down? It's still not a big spread between us, but scrappiness from Brooklyn/Portland/Detroit has been good.

I know they're either injured or broken, but I just struggle to see Philly or New Orleans being worse than us over a season. They'll get their **** together enough. Washington is an epic **** storm, perfectly crafted to tank and we shouldn't worry to much about passing them.

Toronto/Charlotte/Chicago are neck and neck with us, but have at least shown themselves to be more competitive than us so far.

The season is full of runs, but I'm feeling pretty good about our potential for bottom 3 seed. Collins/Collin trades would definitely help but not feeling too likely. Collier and Cody are our secret tank weapons, and hopefully they get unleashed for 25 MPG later in the season.

Their guys seem fairly difficult to move. Lavine and Pat are on huge contracts. Vuc is expiring, but not exactly and easy fit. There’s going to be a lot of competition between teams that want to tank and move off from vets. I think other teams have more desirable assets to trade, but CHI is still a team to watch for sure. Think they are more in the 6-10 range so they can keep their pick rather than a top 3 threat though.
