Melo won’t retire until he is in the top 10 all time scoring
JJJ made his return last night.
Looked a little rusty, but 15 points (4/11 and 6/6 from the line) and 8 boards with 4 blocks in 18 minutes is a good start.
Its a completely Cavs type of thing to have a rebuild of perpetual 5th picks so thats what I'm preparing for.OKC is a disgrace.
I think Cavs fans need to make peace with the idea that they will likely see the team drafting in the last quarter of the Lottery.
A combination of continued poor luck with everything related to the rebuild, but also teams so blatantly tanking that it would make Hinkie blush.
I figure they'll end up with the 6th worst record so drafting 5th would actually be a positive development.Its a completely Cavs type of thing to have a rebuild of perpetual 5th picks so thats what I'm preparing for.
Also impossible, right?I figure they'll end up with the 6th worst record so drafting 5th would actually be a positive development.
Probability of the 6th worst record drafting 5th: Zero.I figure they'll end up with the 6th worst record so drafting 5th would actually be a positive development.
Another 8th pick it is then!Probability of the 6th worst record drafting 5th: Zero.
You also said Cavs fans should make peace with drafting in the last quarter of the lottery. Probability of drafting 11-14 with the 6th worst record: zero.
We have a pretty brutal schedule from here on out and no scoring to speak of from the forward position so I agree we’re likely to end up no worse than 6th worst record. Probabilities for that lottery position:
1 9.00%
2 9.20%
3 9.41%
4 9.62%
6 8.62%
7 29.77%
8 20.33%
9 3.68%
10 0.15%
Roughly 50% chance we draft 7 or 8 and 37% chance in top 4.
Also impossible, right?
If we get 6th worst.
