It'd be pretty easy to get a midround pick this year. I wouldn't be upset if we ended up with Barnes and Walker.

*IT should be noted that for every Ibaka there is Petro, Sene, POB, and a million others who do not put it all together*

I don't know if I missed it in all these pages (haven't kept up for a week or so) but I see a lot of statements about Cleveland taking Irving around the site, etc. They do have two picks, but being the worst record only means you get in top 4. In reality, since 1990, the worst record has only won the lottery 3 times(one of those was a team tied for worst record), and 2nd worst only won 4 times. In 20yrs! 3rd-5th won 9 times, and that's where the Raptors project. The worst record only has a 25% chance, which means 75% chance of NOT getting the top pick.

I did not know the exact stats. That is good research, thank you.

Worst: 3 (2 if you knock out 1990 ha!)
2nd: 4
3rd: 4
4th: NONE
5th: 5
6th: 2
7th: 1
9th: 1
11th: 1 (lucky Orlando bastards won 2yrs in a row getting Shaq and Hardaway I believe).

Perry Jones is definitely coming out from the quote of his former coach:
Does Lawrence Johns, Jones’s mentor, think the player will return to Baylor for a sophomore season? “Come on, man,” he replied, when I asked him. “What would you do? He’ll leave. You looked at these draft boards. NBADraft.net. ESPN. Everybody’s got him top five. No one expected this. That’s what you work for.”

Again haven't had the chance to see him, so I don't know what he would mean for us, just inquiring.
