Just took a quick look at where the draft lotto is heading with only a few weeks left:

#		Holder		Orig Team		W%	Lotto Odds
1	.	Skywalker	(	SKYWALKERS FORCE	)	0.139	14.00	%
2	.	Miek	(	Mieknstien Imperials	)	0.194	14.00	%
3	.	Mars	(	Planet Mars Invaders	)	0.306	14.00	%
4	.	JBML	(	jbml	)	0.361	12.50	%
5	.	Mars	(	Tucas Tucaseseses	)	0.389	10.50	%
6	.	WJF	(	WJF	)	0.417	9.00	%

8	.	Skywalker	(	Joey's MonStars	)	0.444	6.00	%
9	.	Coach	(	The Coach	)	0.528
10	.	JBML	(	REALIZAR	)	0.556
11	.	Skywalker	(	007's Secret Service	)	0.583
12	.	DAN	(	DanH's Team	)	0.639
13	.	Skywalker	(	Mack North Posse	)	0.694
14	.	JBML	(	Apollo Creeds	)	0.722
15	.	Tucas	(	koncept	)	0.778
16	.	Skywalker	(	Axel	)	0.806

This doesn't include any stipulations on picks, which there are many this year (...and people say I run smoke and mirrors. HA!)

I'm pretty sure SW got Joey's pick via the Harden deal but I am curious about what Mars traded to get Tucas' promising pick. That pick was in the Prince Wood trade? That trade gives Mars almost a 25% shot at the top pick if things don't change. It puts Miek's Balls reunion in jeopardy. Miek should have been protecting his Balls at the trade deadline.

To call it a promising pick assumes there’s promising players to be had.

I don’t see many players coming in averaging 20/10 very soon especially if the pick falls out of the top 5

Pretty sure there's going to be a 20-10 gem at 12.

Apparently Mars is good at finding promising players.

Christian Wood is a monster.. there is a risk because he's a UFA but I suspect Detroit to bring him back. And if they do he's going to get a lot of minutes to put up nasty numbers. Also Wood is only 24 and is just entering his prime. Prince also has a DPE so can be brought back easily and is a half decent player.

The pick might be as good as Wood but we won't know. I'm hoping it will be. We'll see what happens.

[Apollo]

I hope it works out for you both.

nurk back in a week. i know it isn't battle of the titans, but lonzo is leading the points, rebounds, assists, steals, 3s, and is 4th in blocks in our matchup.

a planetmars win this week can really mess with that 14%

Even though it would be in my best interest to lose this week and next week, my players just fight too hard every week. Hopefully lottery luck finds me anyway. If I win this week I'm most likely looking at the 4th seed going into the lottery as I beat jbml in our lone game earlier in the season.

[Joey]

Damn, was down 7-2 earlier today, and am currently up 6-3. This week has been a roller-coaster of emotions! Good match Coach.

[Joey]

So if my math is correct, the final playoff spot will come down to Coach, Drizz and myself.

I need both Coach and Drizz to lose next week, and I need to win, and then I'm in.

[DanH]

Dropped a stinker this week. Oh well. Call it a rest week to prep for the playoffs. Can't be peaking too early.

How are teams that are not even going to be in the playoffs have a better shot at winning the chip than I do? I'm in 3rd fucking place lol
