I actually think the Mavs can win…but they also tanked…for Luka and with Luka

PHXSUNS31

Mavs got Luka via a trade with Atlanta. Just saying.

ManicBlue

May 5, 11:14pm

A trade during the draft…they moved from 5 to 3

PHXSUNS31

May 5, 11:19pm

Still a trade. They had the 5th pick. Goes back to talent evaluation.

ManicBlue

May 5, 11:27pm

I don’t get what your point is…trading is still allowed when you’re tanking

Cavs picks will turn out better. But one thing that could happen to Minny

JoeExotic

Drafting Tatum & Brown. The whole point is getting high picks.

RdF3

May 5, 11:17pm

They had NO guarantee those picks would be high picks when they made the trade. Good one. hahahaha

ManicBlue

May 5, 11:29pm

So the years the Celtics went 48-34 and 53-29 are your examples of the Celtics

wjman11

12:11am

They got those picks because they traded their top players for picks

JoeExotic

They tanked for 2014.

Plus magic. Not a contender this year, but very young and talented

insanobueno

You realize the Magic have had 13 top 6 picks (including THREE #1 overall picks) since 1989-90 and have NEVER won

ManicBlue

May 5, 11:43pm

Celtics didn't tank. Imagine someone arguing that they did.

ManicBlue

May 5, 11:02pm

Trading your stars for unproven young talent is also tanking.

PHXSUNS31

May 5, 11:21pm

Oh, so like Ainge trading Donovan and Rudy? So, you're fully on board with the Jazz rebuild. Good to know.

ManicBlue

May 5, 11:28pm

I’m not refuting that the Jazz tanked…just didn’t follow through with it.

PHXSUNS31

Also, the Twolves "tanked" for 17 yrs. You're ok with that I guess.
