They can match up pieces but the gist would be

Wolves Sign love to an extension
Lakers package crap around the high lottery pick with a future first pick

Something like this:

I want to say that I heard on the radio that if they get #1 one of the other picks turns into #13, I have no clue why but I am almost positive they were talking about that.


The wolves have a top 13 protected pick they traded to the Suns, so if Phoenix moves up they also get Minnesota's first

Ok thats what it is, thanks!


ETA: Would that #13 be in addition to the other 3, giving them 4 first rounders?

I think this is a given.

Yesterday I told my dad I would place a large wager on this happening if I could.

Yup. If the Suns #14 moves into top 3, the Wolves. #13 moves back to 14 voiding the top 13 protection.

They'd have top 3 pick + 14, 17, and 28.

Damn.....if you add that, or trade for a player like Love, to the players they already have they could be VERY good!

No. The Bucks are going to win it. The new owners bought the team under the guise that they had to keep the team in Milwaukee and not move the team to Seattle. They will be rewarded.

yeah thing is obviously rigged, orlando and cleveland winning it multiple times shows that. All the love goes for the big market teams like them.


I just hope the bucks and jazz both get bumped out of the top 3

Lets go Pels!

One late entrant I've been thinking about.

Detroit Pistons. The NBA is much better when Detroit is competitive. New coach and a roster that is pretty talented. Drummond + wiggins, embiid, or exum?

Interdasting

Exum is only in that list because Jennings is awful

He is right. There are only 14 ping pong balls numbered 1-14. They pull four digit combos that correspond to the lottery teams.
