Win. The loser mentality needs to go away. Those picks are a crap shoot at that point anyway. Let me see my team play in the playoffs. The 14th pick over the 17th doesn't excite me.


Again what are you trying to win?

Just cause the draft is crapshoot doesNt mean getting a higher pick doesn’t hold value.

By the way its 14th v 21st. Thats a pretty big difference. The Mavs did this essentially last year and got Lively.

Is this a serious question? Basketball games. I don't care if we don't win the series. I want to see the team I root for play in the playoffs. I will be there if they do. You can cheer for losing and continue loving to be a crap team but I actually want the team to compete and win basketball games.

It's still a crap shoot. I just scrolled through the past 15 drafts and the 14th and 21st pick every year are average to bad basketball players. Over the past 15 years there's been one all-star drafted at 14 or 21. I'm not expecting much from that pick. I would rather watch my team play in the playoffs and prevent them from being a laughing stock just a little bit and just hope they hit in the draft no matter what spot they pick from. But again, I don't have a loser mentality.
