no there pick is unprotected going to HOU so they can't do anything about it (part of the Harden trade).

Interesting. I was expecting Mitch to be out for the back to back. I wonder if Thibs thinks Doc is going to tank tonight's game to so the Bucks have a shot at the 3rd Seed and avoid Philly/Miami?

i think it's just saying it would lock them into 9th where as if they lose it could become even better for houston.
literally doesn't matter other than caring about how bad you lost a trade i guess or just not wanting to help houston.

Humiliate them. Make Mikal spiral into despair. Make him have no choice but to demand a trade or else.

Tear them apart. I want them to suffer.

Perk was the first one at ESPN to join Team Brunson.

He may be a blowhard, but he knows talent.

We got a good one in Brunson… like hitting the #1 pick in the lotto and that guy turning into a legit stud top 10 nba player (maybe top 5) this next half decade…

Correct.

They traded four 1sts and 3 swaps for James Harden and then traded him for 45 games of Ben Simmons.
