I dont think there's too many people who believe that Mohammed and Porter are not going to be legitimate NBA small forwards. one of them is likely going to be there at pick number six. I agree that anything after that is a crapshoot but these two guys will be solid

Both are far more NBA ready than Rivers - so that comparison is a joke.

Last season with Gordon 6-3 .67%
This season with Gordon 7-4 .63%

Current record 15-31

If we play just .600 ball with Gordon but he misses back to backs and we lose about 75% of those games, the final record will be 35-47 which would be a .426 winning percentage that would currently put us at 13th in the draft order.

You can't just root for losses, you basically have to root for Gordon to get injured again to achieve your goals. There is no way to get the type of pick you're talking about without something semi-disastrous happening, so I'm going to pass on rooting for losses.
