@dadyfawdc@sixringsofsteeI And the same thing applies if you reverse it. Now let's say both picks are top 5 this year, they can still get both picks top 5 next year, but the year after, both picks would be locked at 6 or later
@dadyfawdc@sixringsofsteeI It'd still only count as 1. Let's expand the example, let's say this is the clippers 3rd year in top 5, and the pacers 2nd year in top 5. Then the clippers pick would only be as high as 6 but their pick from the pacers could still go top 5.
@barstoolcali@ShamsCharania@BobbyMarks42@memgrizz Bro you're a Lakers fan, your opinion doesn't matter whatsoever in terms of teams tanking. Y'all could have the worst team in existence, go 0-82 and will still get top 5 players to come play for y'all. So respectfully, stfu, y'all don't have to go through what smallers teams do
@TCPW21@JustDave243@BobBurg11324144@KaiBOBOtto@esidery@929espn If you dont think he's good that's fine, but yall think they're desperate to trade him just to get rid of him. This isn't a kawhi spurs situation. We're not trading him for assets that hurt the team. We'd trade him for a single second round pick before we accepted that trash deal
@dadyfawdc@sixringsofsteeI teams can't have 2 first round picks of their own, meaning the 2nd pick would have to come from another team, which means theyre still technically not picking twice in the top 5 with their own picks, they're picking once in the top 5 from their pick, and again with another team's
@JustDave243@BobBurg11324144@KaiBOBOtto@TCPW21@esidery@929espn Secondly, we're a tanking team that's selling Ja, why would we take assets to hurt us in the future to offload him? We could sit the guy for 2 years and be perfectly fine. He's not a locker room cancer or anything, the coach just doesn't like him. His teammates love him.
@JustDave243@BobBurg11324144@KaiBOBOtto@TCPW21@esidery@929espn I don't think y'all quite understand how dumb y'all sound.... Ja's contract is up in 2 years, we don't have to pay any of our young guys until the same year his contract is up. We are not in the luxury nor any of the aprons. So we obviously don't have to worry about money.
@aidenrenfrow13@UnderdogNBA@MikeVorkunov I don't understand this post, 2026 will be the first year we pick top 5 based on this rule. Meaning next year we can still pick top 5. Only the 2028 pick would be affected... Did they not do any research?
@RobGradyVO@Soochittbdg@Raptors That's the cool thing about the Internet and "twitter", I don't need no ones fucking permission to comment and make a statement π
@tweetsbypizza@ShamsCharania Bruh their stats are damn near identical π but even then, stats don't determine everything, because stats can't vividly show who's the better defender. Which Ced is by a fucking mile lmao. He cleared Fears this year.
