NBA season 2018/19
-
the Knicks are the shittest team already. So they are winning the race to the bottom.
-
@mariner4life under new rules for the 2019 NBA Draft, the 3 worst teams will each have a 14% chance of the number 1 pick.
-
@KiwiMurph so Knicks, Cavs, Bulls, and Suns all in teh 10-12 win bracket are in the "race"
Bucks cement top spot in the East by beating the Raptors
Sixers v Warriors on now.

And with the first pick in the 2019 NBA draft, the New York Knicks select Zion Williamson from Duke University.
They've done it before....
The Ewing Conspiracy
Thirty years after the Knicks landed Georgetown’s big man, the first Draft Lottery remains a seminal—and much dissected—moment in NBA history

Well my desperate search for a second team and alternate jersey (I'm a Suns fan, so duh) continues and doesn't get any clearer. I've been to NYC and NOLA and had time for KP and the Brow but am pleased I didn't grab a City Edition jersey with either player's name on it when looking recently! KP in Dallas has some attraction but only if I get to a game there in October so there's another strand of connection other than likeable players, ok jersey. Sigh. Guess I'll just keep wearing the 'grape' Booker jersey or retro KJ one in the meantime.

@shark neither of the guys on my two spurs singlets play for the team anymore. Both are still playing...
-
@mariner4life Kawhai and who?
My fiance bought me a Spurs tee recently, given we're going to Texas in October and we don't know yet what game(s) we'll get to. I used to like the Spurs back in the days of the Admiral but just don't know if I can wholeheartedly get behind a team with an Aussie on it.

@mariner4life whoa I didn't even know he was still in the league!

Yep Charlotte. 18-odd years in the NBA.

@shark You'll love it! Went to their stadium for an Ariana Grande concert because of the missus haha but managed to get to see the Rockets who I follow when I was in Texas. San Antonio is beautiful too!

Things are getting weird. Now Kyrie Irving is opening the door on leaving Boston. AD's dad says he doesn't trust Boston after how they handled Isiah Thomas. He doesn't speak for AD but that's a lot of negative energy surrounding the Celtics right now. Of course it might flip on its head in the next 24 hours

Houston or SA?

This is after Kyrie made a very public song and dance on court earlier in the season about how he'd be re-signing.
The drama is more interesting than the on court action! The Knicks have cleared room for two super stars next season. Unless KD has given them a strong indication he wants to play there I don't see that organisation attracting top free agents straight up
-
Torrey Craig with a bit of a day out v the Rockets. 22 points! Nuggets looking good for 2nd in the West

It is!
I reckon the Knicks would just about need to guarantee to Superstar #1 that Superstar #2 is a lock-in for this to work. $71m in cap space or something?!

Yup. I can't help but think they'll stuff it up

I could see them bagging one who then leaves in 1-1 1/2 seasons.
And KP will be an All Star in 2020.
