2025 NBA Draft Talk

[wildturkey]

Figured we could use an all encompassing thread for draft talk, whether its lottery odds, trade, prospect potential, etc.

Lottery is tonight at 7pmEST

Odds with a nice table of each pick percentage are here: Everything you need to know about the 2025 NBA Draft Lottery


And with news of Giannis open to a trade, tonight could be very important. If a team like the Spurs or Rockets jump into the Top 4, that's a big trade chip in their bag to offer for Giannis.

Personal rooting interest in Capture The Flagg:

I'd like to see Charlotte or Washington win. These franchises need some good luck, especially Charlotte. The best thing to happen to the Hornets are still 1990s Starter jackets. It's time they catch a break.

I'm actively rooting against Utah and SA. Utah because fuck Utah, that'd be boring. San Antonio because yall got all the luck anyway. You've got Wemby and Castle. If they get Flagg, teams might as well just give up winning titles in the 2030s

I'd like to play keep-away and put him the East, but I think it's Utah's time.

This isn’t complete without the tankathon simulation site. I got Brooklyn with the first pick when I ran it.

LFG!!!!

Imagine how exciting it would be if the lakers were in the lottery.

 

[thunderc]

My simulations in tankathon seem to overwhelmingly point to the Pelicans getting the first pick.

ESPN saying the 76ers have a 10% chance to land the #1 pick and Flagg, @fightinfunbags.

Zion is the Pelicans representative tonight. Be kind of funny if they win so Zion sits up there with the #1 pick, who the Pels will draft the guy to replace Zion when they ship him out this Summer

We aren’t that lucky

Has someone representing the draft lotto for a team ever been traded the same day

Asking for a friend

@Zion Williamson

 

[TheSnowdog]

Philly was going to have Embiid as their representative but he injured himself climbing the podium to his seat

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Oh man, if Dallas won lol. So rigged

 

[thunderc]

If Dallas gets the 1 I’m raising hell

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Philly hosed.

 

[thunderc]

This is bullshit

 

[Stakesarehigh]
