If the Magic beat the Lakers today, I will be all-in again on Lakers pick. It has suddenly occured to me that I am much more concerned with this Magic/Lakers game than I am about beating the Knicks. That is messed up.

Anyway, that being said, curious to know about other people's anxiety/pick obsession levels

Honestly not bothered. Whatever happens, happens.

Part of me thinks it's probably better for them salary cap wise if the pick conveys next year.

No, i mean even if it doesn't convey we have anther shot at it next year. Kings are gonna be bad again and fewer teams will be tanking with the lottery reform.

Good to know some people are sleeping well.

Not bothered.

Same. I don't expect it to convey this offseason. If it does, that's gravy.

Just a quick note on Brooklyn. Man, have they done a nice rebuild since the russian and Billy King left. They have hit on almost every late round pick (RHJ, Jarret Allen looks great), their trades have been great (Dinwiddie, Carroll, Russell), FAs have been great (Harris, Crabbe). Atkinson has them playing hard

Well done. That is how you build a franchise from literally less than nothing..

Yeah, whatever happens, happens.

Lakers have shown they are just as likely to win 7 of 10 as they are to lose 11 of 13.

Still got a lot of games to be played.
