What Happens If....

Sorry, I had a KingSpeed moment. We'll get #6 and #11 and draft Barnes and Marshall. Win 44 games next season and just miss the playoffs.

YES! But the following year, we'll get to the number 3 spot and LOOK OUT!

If we only have #11, I'd look to save salary caproom for next summer. That would likely mean this team is going to deep in lotto again next year.

Generally true, but Clyde, Terry and Sabas might argue that one. Not to mention two of the starting point guards who are still in the playoffs. I think scouting has improved though and it's harder to find diamonds like that.

When you look at how many of these guys exist versus the guys who don't amount to shit.....over the years, its held pretty much true.

Really only if you dump Batum. I'm not sure it is worth that. If you wanted to take that route, I think it would make more sense to trade Aldridge for more draft picks or young talent, then tank and get more picks.

Nope. Throw everything at top 10 players in the league to go with Aldridge. that's how you win.

.... we only get our 11th pick! I have literally not thought of this until about an hour ago! We may go into this arguably "great" draft with only the 11th pick. Now that would suck! Changes everything right?

Mrs. HCP says 6th pick, 11th pick makes no difference. If he's big enough, he's good enough.

It's important to her whether we "only have 11" or "an extra 6."

I couldn't be more pleased - I truly envisioned this jinx continuing and finding us with the 12th pick and Nets getting the #3.

Perhaps bad luck is behind us and we can move forward.

+1. We didn't drop. But we didn't move up either. Considering the Blazers' luck and my day, overall, I consider it a win.

Mrs HCP is always happy with my Number 8. She's tired of all yallz number twos.
