2nd, 14th, ATL's 2027 1st, Spurs 2029 1st, Castle, and I dunno, Vassel to pair Wemby with Giannis?

Who is next after Flagg? RUTGERS OR RUTGERS?

Spurs gonna be loaded ya, and hilarious Mavs get rewarded for generational incompetence. healthy Kyrie and AD actually make that a very good team lmao

Wow, fuck that for the Mavs. That's so uncool. I guess the NBA did rig Luka to the Mavs and then promised they would get the #1.

Washington falling all the way to 6th isn't great.

Giannis news isn't great, except for whoever gets him I guess.

1. Dallas Mavericks

Real odds: 1.8 percent
Karmic odds: 18 percent

I have no idea where to start with this one. The Mavericks just wrapped the most disastrous season in NBA history, and it was entirely self-inflicted. The team’s outlook is decimated. Its owners won’t take accountability. The fans are in open revolt. It’s an impossible situation: If the Mavs are good, it will validate Nico Harrison; if they aren’t, Dallas fans will suffer.

Unless …

What if there were a way to extricate the fate of the Mavs from the success of the fans’ sworn enemy? What if it were possible to help the Mavs without vindicating Harrison? What if there were some mechanism to get Dallas a new franchise cornerstone that was entirely divorced from the misguided philosophies of the team’s general manager? Eureka. In all of NBA history, there has never been a situation quite like the Mavs’, and this silly draft lottery system provides the perfect resolution. The Mavs get Flagg, and Harrison gets none of the credit. It may even get him fired, if Mavs ownership uses the opportunity to reorient around Flagg as an excuse to bail on Harrison’s vision.

I get it: The karmic case is thorny. Maybe you think the Mavs should spend 40 years wandering the desert as punishment for the unforgivable sin of trading Luka Doncic. Maybe you think the other 29 NBA teams should just agree to let them have Flagg out of pity. Maybe you think a defense led by Flagg and Anthony Davis will win too many championships. Whatever the case, I think we can all agree that this is the only way, and the only time, to salvage the next half decade of Dallas Mavericks basketball.

San Antonio getting the 2nd pick is also sucky after getting #1 last year.

Normally I love the draft but this whole sequence kinda blows.

Cooper to the Mavs just in time for the Mavs move to Vegas

Don't let this distract you from the Celtics being down 7 with 3 mins left in a pivotal game 4

Man I hate injuries, really just sucks for everyone. I hope it isn't this.

It's really hard to think it's anything else. That pushoff is exactly how this happens, he didn't roll it.

Now the bitchass pundits get a free out for not knowing ball

Yah I saw the replay. Non-contact going to the ball. Just hope not this. Can't believe we're about to have a Pacers/Knicks eastern finals.

[archibaldcrane]

The Twolves/Pacers final is going to be weird af

rip Tatum, but the Celts were prolly losing this series anyways. said since the offseason the Knicks were constructed with one goal in mind, matching up with Boston's 4-wing set + a mobile perimeter big, and the margin was too small for them to weather Porzingis's injury.

chickens and all but Knicks gotta be the favorites to make the Finals now. think they'd have a much more difficult time with Cleveland, Indiana doing them a huge favor if they can hit the upset.
