He’s opening some eyes for sure but these preliminary round games are one-sided slaughters for the most part so I’ll wait to the medal games to really assess where he is. That said, he came into the year viewed as a possible top 10 talent so...
Would prob move hagens down to 3 (and make it tier 2)
They definitely wouldn't be able to move up again if they win this lottery, but what if they finish dead last next year? Would they just automatically get the #3 pick or something?
No. "Winning" is moving up. Getting the pick in your lottery spot is not "winning" for those purposes. For example. The Ducks did "win" the second pick the 2023 draft in the sense that their lottery balls came up, but because they moved down (from 1 to 2), it doesn't count as a "win".
If they finish last they technically can still get the #1 pick.
That's what I thought, but Chicago will likely still be bad enough for the #1 pick next year anyway.
Technically if Detroit wins the first drawing and we win the second drawing, we go to the 3rd pick. It has a .02% chance of happening.
Yes!
I rolled 30 times. We only won a lottery twice. But at least both times it was first overall
That'd actually be very much our odds. 2 from 30 is around 6%I rolled 30 times. We only won a lottery twice. But at least both times it was first overall
I could see for a proven talent, but this might be the worst draft to trade down for a couple mid 1sts.
I doubt they would, and even still I would rather take the lower "value" side of the deal that likely has the best chance at getting a 1st line player.
