Saw a bit of Lavine, not a ton, but one thing that really stuck out at me was this guy doesn't even know how to use his athleticism yet. Wait until he can get into the paint.
I want Toronto to be in the same position next year as phoenix is this year. Multiple first round picks from other teams so there is no worry about tanking because of your ability to retain the picks you have as they are or package picks/Assets to move up As you see fit. Not to mention some quality young players and a head coach that plays exciting ball and gets the most out of limited talent. We'll played phoenix well played. Now, why don't you give us one of your picks for Amir?
Sunny ways my friends, sunny ways
Because its 2015
Not a guy who's likely on any draft radar, but mad respect to Syracuse's sophomore SG Trevor Cooney. Silky smooth catch and shoot after faking the baseline cut enough so that the screener doesn't even have to screen.
Im ALLL for taking craft with a 2nd round pick, think he'd be a great development project to grow. Can see him being one of those steals in the 2nd round
So if we stay in this spot in the tank standings, we land Gordon (who I personally love). And it's only better from there. I'd say our situation looks pretty swell.

Raptors currently sitting at 7th, but Knicks and Nets will essentially come up on the top at the end of the December. To me ONLY Utah clearly worst than the Raptors, the Kings after the trade with Gay may actually finish a better record than the Raptors, and to many surprises the Bucks will be better and it will be Raptors, Magic, Sixers and Bucks fighting for the top 3 draft orders. If we can recall the last lottery history, almost never happened that worst 3 record teams stays in top 3 after the lottery, it's funny almost in the past 10 years of ping pong balls, it's always one team out of the 3 worst records stays at the top 3 after the lottery. If we can stay around 3-6 we could be very lucky, if not we are getting Smart, or Exum, or Embiid at least.

Toronto could very well be tied for 3rd fewest wins after tonight, possibly only 1 win ahead of the teams tied for the fewest!
Utah (5) @ Denver
Milwaukee (5) VS Chicago
Sacramento (6) @ Phoenix
NY (6) @ Boston
Philly (7) @ Toronto (7)
I fully expect Toronto to finish in the bottom-5 of the standings this season, possibly even if MU doesn't completely gut the team.
Yeah Utah has looked a lot better with Burke in the lineup. There isn't a giant hole at PG anymore. Plus getting Evans and Rush back from injury really helps.
Bucks will get Sanders back pretty soon. That will be big.
Philly I think is still gonna be the worst.
Orlando is a big question mark too. I can't figure out yet what's gong on.
