We could fall to dead last

[KingSpeed]

Sac and Denver are ahead of us and the Pelicans aren't far behind. The others are closing in too. We have a chance at top pick.

Fuck it might as well! haha

A Cinderella story... out of nowhere... first pick in the draft!

 

[riverman]

If you're going to fall....it's probably better to die last

Either be the best you can be or get the best you can get.

A top 3 pick? What could go wrong?!

You just felt the kneed to say that.

@HCP called it.

Last year, though.

If it's all the same to you, I'll take the heartbreak of a generational talent going down in a tangle of broken ligaments and cartilage over a gutless team getting their doors blown off, with no hope of sniffing a title.

 

[BlayZa]

dead last? even with Aminu?

tune has changed i guess.

CJ and Crabbe for Noel, Philadelphia's, and the Lakers pick.

We'd suck, and possibly get two top 3 picks in a loaded draft.

That's a gamble that any one of the three becomes at least as good as CJ, no?

Bird in hand.

IMO

In this draft, I would take it. I think there is a decent chance that we get equivalent or better.

Josh Jackson is a lot better fit and could very well be better. Fultz is a bigger version of McCollum with defensive potential.

Maybe The HCP is an unrecognized genius. A visionary. Ahead of his time.

And now just 4 days to get out of 2016 alive!

That's the exact kid of logic the Bulls used when they traded Elton Brand for the right to draft Tyson Chandler.

I don't think Chandler was even close to being as good as Brand.

22 PPG scorers who can pass and hit 43% of their 3pt shots are not easy to get.

So you do want to tank?

 

[Blazer_Hippie]

I know we're not quite there yet...but this would be a really impressive feat if we could get the #1 pick while simultaneously having the league's highest payroll.

 

[ripcityboy]

Say we get a top three pick, however unlikely..... we add an above average NBA starter to an extremely young team. Seems like a quick fix for a team without many options.
Can't say I'd hate this possibility.

No, but it wouldn't be a bad plan. And trading CJ foot those picks isn't "tanking".

Simply amazing that we are going to win 64 games yet be inLAST place original poster.
