[quote]you are totally disregarding the capital that a draft pick intrinsically has a commodity... the ability to get better players with a draft pick doesn't mean you have to draft a player with said pick.... it's not my fault you can't understand this, are being intellectually dishonest, or bot...
[quote]Provide the math showing how playoff basketball positively impacts a player developing at a higher rate and how that is more valuable than having a draft pick 7 slots higher.[/quote] No one has charted that information. But you already knew that. What I have shown is that there is minimal ...
I've already linked math showing the pick hit rate between 14 and 21 is almost the same. There's no point arguing this anymore if people are just going to ignore math. ...
[quote]especially in the NBA, [b]the higher the guy is drafted, they typically are better players[/b].... crazy, i know.... and that's not even going into how much more trade value 14 has over 21...[/quote] That is simply not true when you get into the teens-early 20s of the draft picks. [lin...

I hope the 6ers lose tonight and Friday and embiid asks out. We send ingram dyson and a million picks to get him here...
I'm glad you got this victory tonight. I'm sorry I didn't follow through with not addressing you anymore. Sometimes you just have to point and laugh at the whack take guy. My bad...
[quote]this another official one day of replying to my posts before saying Im done replying for like the fourth time? I really am crack to you aren’t I?[/quote] Is this what you like to revert to when I prove that you like to make up arguments in your head?...
[quote]Your sitting there shitting on David Griffin in caps locks and now dont care about the draft.[/quote] Not caring about a 7 position pick differential doesn't mean I don't care about the draft. Go back to your other whack arguments please. ...
[quote]only a soft beta thinks they cant win a playoff series without Zion. Just dont watch Friday then. Go "prepare" for next season[/quote] The 14th pick is so vital though! Remember Herb Jones? He was drafted 35th! Oh wait. ...
[quote]When you say "We the fans" and then proceed to say you want the team to lose and not make the playoffs, you don't come off as much of a fan. Much less one that speaks for the fanbase.[/quote] But muh big picture.......
[quote]Just to be fair...yall are thinking about what players you can get between 14-21, when the real question is about the difference in trade value. Because the Pels are going to trade players and a bunch of picks this offseason no matter what[/quote] That's a very good point. I just don't ...
[quote]Again very short sighted view. Very short sighted.[/quote] If the 14 pick over the 21st pick in this class is what's gonna help you rationalize wanting to lose then more power to you. I don't think like that. I want victory. Every goddamn time. ...
[quote]What are you exactly trying to win with this roster?????[/quote] A basketball game. So we can play more basketball. ...
[quote]all of these dudes wouldn't have been available at 21, but would have been at 14... so yeah, there is a difference between 14 and 21[/quote] Jimmy Butler was drafted 30th Jokic the 41st...
[quote], we all are..... this "superfan" shite you trying to pull is all fine and dandy, but it ain't gonna make the situation any better... we are in the position we are in, it is what it is.... the short sighted "i just wanna make the playoffs" is just that... short sighted... long term, its better...
I don't care about the rationality of getting a better pick. I'm fricking sick of not being in the playoffs, and if you give a shite about the players on this team you'll want them to make it. Too many dudes busted arse all fricking year to go from the fricking 4th seed two fricking weeks ago to takin...
[quote]Spacing will be better. Offense will be less clogged with watching layups[/quote] Jesus fricking christ the dumb takes on this board in the past 16 hours...
[quote]called it last night.[/quote] I did too, doctors on this board lost a lot of credibility last night lol...
