Fluctuates wildly depending on the latest move.
How can you be sure I wasn’t basing it in part on the trade to reacquire Poetl? They gave the Spurs the #8 pick in the 2024 draft and even threw in a two second round picks. The Spurs had already drafted Castle and were able to flip the #8 pick (Dillingham in a weak draft) for Minny’s 2031 unprotected and 2030 top-1 protected. The 2031 pick was one of those that just enabled them to trade for Fox.
Or letting FVV leave in FA for nothing. Or waiting too long to trade OG and Siakam. Or trading Norm Powell for Gary Trent Jr. Trading SA again a first round pick for a washed Thad Young who Nurse barely played. I’m sure there are others I’m forgetting. Instead of tanking properly they wound up with Dick in a loaded draft and Poetl instead of having another lottery pick or the asset, which turned out to be quite a good one for SA.
