That pick was going to convey in the lottery. It was a good get for them from where they’ve been for the last year and a half when no one was offering any kind of future-facing stuff at all.

As it stands today they have the would likely have the 9th pick and are obviously trying to get worse to get better odds. I get that might be a little too close for comfort though.

Well, also, if the pick doesn’t convey this year, it kicks back two more years at top-8 protected. Almost a perfect protection schema cuz they for sure were gonna cough up a pick just outside that range in the next three years.

My theory leading up to this is that SA or Atlanta were gonna jump into the lottery and push the pick to exactly 11 cuz the Spurs are the luckiest mother****ers out there. SA not tanking and jettisoning the Chicago pick is a big deal.

Isn’t Ellis playing at the 2? Carter is a fine prospect but he is not ready to helm.

Think they just run it through Sabonis/Monk/DeRozan in that order and coach up Carter. Sexton would get lost in the sauce on that team, not a good fit imo
