@frankmikesmith this is such a naive take, all the players u showed in the video will be taken in the top 4 and u r basing how successful the trade is off lottery luck
@FiohoopsPix@EliPerlmut96759@esidery pritchard said that we couldn’t protect it anymore in this video. and there was still a 52% chance we kept that pick so it’s all just hindsight bias, it’s not like we lost the pick without a chance to keep it
@FiohoopsPix@EliPerlmut96759@esidery i doubt this trade happens if top 10 protected, but let’s say it does and the pacers get pick 5, who would they pick? there’s acuff, wagler, mikel, and flemings who would not help the team much. not to mention zubac is on a great contract and mathurin was not getting an extension
