Yeah but if the season ended today they'd pick 9th. They are more or less a .500 team since that terrible 0-8 start, so I'd expect them to keep climbing. We're not quite past the point of no return for tanking, an AD injury and trading Holiday could change things in an instant, but based on the current trajectory I think the real choice is what htran laid out. Pick 10+ or playoffs, and I think most of us choose playoffs in that scenario as long as they don't trade the draft pick to get there.

thats gonna be the issue
for whatever reason that draft pick seems to be burning a hole in dell's pocket and to be honest the only reason this team sneaks in to the top 8 is that the bottom of the west is crap, not because the pels are all of a sudden a well constructed and well coached team

alas, i fear the worst case scenario...dell trades the pick and they get waxed in round one as an eighth seed, setting us up for nothing better in the years to come

I just hate hovering around the 8-10 seed
