HeHateMe 697 Report post Posted April 18, 2017 Yea at this point I'm just hoping we swing something to move back in to the lottery. If we played our cards correctly we could net 2 starters if we get back in to the top 12. I don't think we have the ammo to steal the Knicks pick from Phil, but I agree who really knows what direction they're going in. You could make the case that we could probably trade up with Charlotte, Detroit, Denver or Miami reasonably. But it's like if you're a team like Charlotte, would you rather trade for Vuch or just draft a guy like Zach Collins or Jarrett Allen? That's where I think it could get tricky. Most of those teams seem to be closer to the win now mode though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magicdoc1 261 Report post Posted April 18, 2017 If we can somehow manage to trade our 2 first rounders and one of our second round picks to Sacramento for their 2 lottery first round picks. We could end up with Smith/Fox and Isaac. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted April 18, 2017 Will the coin flip be televised? im not sure. I don't even know if its actually a coin flip as that's kind of a colloquial term sometimes. it might be a random number generator where all four teams are assigned a number 1-4 and the computer just draws them.

Coin flip decides who picks first between teams with same record Seems the NBA will use the good old coin-flipping method! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you have a 4 sided coin, how are you going to solve a 4 team tiebreaker by coin flips? It'd be easier just to go on Google's random number generator, have it draw numbers 1-4 and assign each team a number. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
