Obviously, very specific example, but if you trust the team to make the right selection, those slots matter tbh.
I think we finish 7th, as I see Pelicans, Kings and Jazz lower than us from the West, same as Wizards, Pacers and Nets.
We need a crazy tanking to beat those, in an unhealthy way. But we shouldn't be at 10th or 9th IMO
Tanking excitement is going to keep this board thoroughly occupied. It's a weird place to be I think. I can't imagine what the Wizards go though every year. I'm sure they thought Flagg was theirs last year.
