I'm not going to root for a L,but if it happens, I'm perfectly fine with it. Much like Hornets of last year.

Just like winning 7 of our last 13 games last year screwed our chances at a #1 pick right?

also nfl doesn't have lottery so irrelevant comparison is irrelevant

Did anyone ever say what Eric said at the end of the interview?

Actually id rather root for my team than want them to lose. That's probably why they're my team.

Is it an incorrect statement
Yes. If this team is fully healthy and still bottom 5 that's not a good thing at all. I view this season as a throw away so I really don't care about the record but it would be a very good thing for our core pieces to learn how to win together.

a loss gets us a better draft pick. what would you rather a moral victory or a better draft pick. i'm going with the latter

I can't root for a loss, it goes against fundamental principles. Also I don't think management does either because there are no ADs in this draft. I see demps making a few moves this season, maybe our picks for a couple vets. As you all know, when a solid 3 is added to this team we become dangerous.

Pretty much. Look, with a healthy Gordon and these young guys gaining experience over the season, I just don't see the Hornets/Pelicans/Brass(please, God) being having the nearly the same lottery % they had last year.
So, I don't think the tank/not tank argument is as relevant (although those who actively root for losses still remain morally deficient, retard, inbred trailer trash who are not nearly as perceptive or bright as they think they are, and I would still kill them like that little puppy who was hanged and set on fire the other day . . . although he survived . . . I would beat those cocksuckers who did it with a baseball bat . . . sort of like the end of "Casino" in the cornfield . . but maybe I digress).

I hated the last answer in that interview. So easy to tell he doesn't want to be here
I literally cringed when he said that
He's like well I'm stuck here...gotta make the most of it.
Anyone who thought he actually wanted to be here need to read that quote

If you're parsing the guys comments that closely, you should find another hobby. Not meaning to criticize really, but come on man. It would be interesting to make a collection of players similarly situated and see how they sound. You guys should just forget about that nonsense, imo.

I don't see what about his answer makes it 100% clear to you that he wants out.

Nothing in his answer suggested it. Apparently, however, unless he screams I love New Orleans and the Hornets and said he will die here at the top of his lungs, he wants out.
