Game Thread NBA Draft Lottery - May 12, 2025

The easiest prediction to make was that Philadelphia would keep their pick one way or another. As it stands, OKC is already positioned to come out of the West for the next 3 years. That's going to get old for the league unless they can really sell SGA.

This ranks right up there with the worse moments in Jazz history. I hate the NBA. Dallas gets reward and Phil. I don't even care who we take. I have been watching the NBA when they were taping the games and showing them later.

How good are the top 2-4 players next season?

Arguably better than this year. Like maybe even a whole tier better.

Except next year the class is also very good, so might as well go another year.

Plus the whole protected OKC pick thing.
**** I miss watching jazz games and rooting for wins

3% isnt 0 %

It's 1.8% not 3%. And for it to happen two years in a row is 3%*1.8%=.054%, that is 5 in 10000 chance.

To everyone saying it's rigged, I've got one question: Is Andy Larsen in on it?

 

[jazzVA]

Lol. This increases the odds we tank again next year.

Why?

Still no zero

No.

That trade was terrible at the time and even worse now. Big freaking mistake. I have no idea why any team would make a trade like that - regardless of how good you think you may end up being.
