For what Team?

Lakers?

No...not with Russell and Clarkson on the roster.

The Celtics?

Hell no...lol

Suns?

No...Bledsoe, Booker

Sixers?

Yep.

Clarkson can be the 6th man.....and it wouldn't surprise me if they traded Russell either and went with Ball and Clarkson.

Celtics? Fultz would with IT and Bradley would get traded with Smart backing up both guards.

Clark off the bench, Ball at the 1 & Russell at the 2.

Um, the Cavs tried this and it didn't work.....then lured James back and traded for Love.

Yup ... didn't work at all ... no way you could win a championship with their plan.

Congrats, Dude!

Fultz and Thomas already have a connection from Washington.

East Coast version of Lillard and CJ production is not a stretch.

I seriously will be very pissed off if he is selected. Dude's just not that good and an arrogant SOB. Now I am sure a lot has to do with his dad but still

You really think EVERY player who makes All NBA gets the full supermax?
Why is 1st team equal to 3rd?
Teams should use discretion and maybe offer more then other teams can, but not every dollar unless it's a handful of players.
No.

But, I think HAYWARD will get offered the designated player deal.

It's the Jazz's trump card.

I don't think the Celtics , or anyone else outside the Cavs and Warriors, are superior enough to tempt him to turn down $200 mil to sign elsewhere.

Use the ESPN simulator


You forgot the part about it meaning anything.
Bottom line is out of 1000 combinations, the team that had a 1 in 4 chance, or 250 of the 1000 won.
The percentages held up this year.

Their sampling of 4 attempts meant nothing, agreed. The simulator is based on the 1000 combinations, so in general it is as accurate as it can be.

He seems the better fit for the Celtics for sure. He's a bit similar to D'Angelo for my taste for the Lakers, but he and Ball are the clear top 2 IMO.

I'm good either way, I think Lonzo is the better fit for the Lakers though.

It would be fascinating to know what Magic is thinking right now. He won't admit it -- but I bet he has already made up his mind about drafting Ball or not. Given Russell's game, Magic could go a few different directions. He also may not want to deal with LaVar.

It's no different then a local lottery with a pick 4.
The numbers picked tonight have no bearing on tomorrow's numbers.
It can't be accurate.
It's just for fun.

I hope the fuck not. I'd almost rather have Fox than Ball.
