Just did the tankathon sim four times.
Dallas got picks #1,2 on two turns and stayed in place at #10 twice.
Someone needs to hack that website and burn its creators at the stake for this witchcraft.

Russell and Kyrie are free agents? can they do that? Why do that if the don't have to?
Lakers get their coveted player in Kyrie, Mavs get a 4 who can play defense and a contributing offensive player. would be sign and trade i think

DLo is like the 20 cent to the dollar version of Kyrie. Don't think the Mavs make that trade. Throw in Hillbilly Mamba and maybe...
Tanking will run even more rampant now that teams know no picks will be taken no matter how flagrantly they do it. Not surprising though. Silver been getting ran over by everyone since he took over.
How underwhelming...especially as we prepare to see teams throwing in up to $3M in trades for later draft picks.
I read that before the Bulls game where all the starters were pulled and they blew the lead with Theo taking the big shots etc,. that the Mavs were 7 - 8 point favorites. So if someone had inside knowledge of the Mavs' plans and laid big bucks on the Bulls....
I'd ask how is this okay but then professional sports is in bed with gambling. Enjoy the games.

Let's wait to see if the Dallas pick magically and conspiratorially falls to #11

This is a joke.
What a joke. I'm not that invested in the people at 10-13 but i hope they lose that pick out of spite. Loser organization.
Question: how does a team with a "generational talent" (not my words) "MVP candidate" like Luka Doncic, not even make the play in? How are they one of the 10 worst teams in the league? That's disgraceful, and he should not be in any MVP conversations after that.
League office and Silver in particular is a clown show.
would love for them to fall back to 11
also would love for Luka to demand a trade
If the nba draft lotto is rigged lol maybe the real punishment will come when they magically slip to pick 11 … it would be ironic as that’s JB’s Number who obviously we stole from the mavs !!! Ahaha honestly thought who ever we would pick at 11 if the Mavs slip, would they even grace the rotation with how our rotation is set now? Probably not…

Ironically, recent Knicks pick history has seen us stay in our slot or move down in the draft...Perhaps our "move down" curse will transfer over to Dallas and keep Cuban out of the top 10.

Remember when Luka and KP were the next Nash and Dirk?

They weren’t getting Wemby anyway. Apparently Cuban is angry at the Knicks for signing Brunson. That’s on him. He simply could have offered him more money to stay in Dallas instead of cheating out with him and overpaying for Finney-Smith who is a JAG wing dime a dozen player
