Thanks to some wins today by grizzlies, hornets, nets, suns. Jazz and Mavs also look like they're about to win

never was dead.  way too much panic on this board too early in the season.  Lakers aren't as good as their current record and will only get worse as they play more teams in the West as the season progresses.

I played this thing about 15 times and had only about 6 times where we did not pick at all.

The other 9 times we where anywhere from 3-5, picking Bagley twice, Bamba about 6 times and Doncic once.

Bamba is REALLY long...that wingspan.

We should send you then. The odds of ending up 2-5 are 44% or 4 in 9 if Fakers tied for 5th worse.

If the lakers could just fall to number 3 that would be the best odds for us I think. Something like 80% we get to pick

I still think that's possible.  Only Chicago and Atlanta are clearly worse.

I think Sacramento is worse than Atlanta, myself.  Best I’m hoping for is the Lakers at 4th-worst.  Still, at that position the odds exceed 70%.

The best thing is that even if we get a pick in the 20s from this trade in 2019, we still won it.

Because we traded bust fultz for future goat Tatum plus a first round pick.

Doesn’t even have to be that extreme, but Tatum was absolutely the best pick for the C’s.  Got what we wanted, for $1.5 million or so less a year, and a pick.  The trade is already won by Ainge.  The extra pick is just a bonus at this point.
