You said Peterson for the Nets for the first two teams, the Wizards and the Pacers.

Is it like Peterson with a bullet or will it depend on like if the Wizards get the one, for instance, are they thinking more to Bonsai because their personnel?

Like, what do you think for those two teams?

But who has like the karma going for them?

At one point, I thought the Pacers were so like light years ahead of everybody because of the Halliburton injury.

Like they deserve the one gap year in order to reset.

It seems like they're going to do that.

Sure.

Definitely have made it sure that they're going to like put themselves in position to keep this pick because top five, once it gets into five and nine range, it goes to the Clippers.

Now I'm not so sure because they really have tested the gods here.

Rob, is it still like the Pacers deserve the number one pick more than any other team?

Or what do you think?

Well, the other team on the other end of the spectrum, which we talked about before about teams who might be fucked by the flattening of odds, which seems to be in the offing here.

The Bulls might be the biggest loser of any changes coming down the pike here because they've seemingly missed the window to outright tank.

They're just bad enough to be like the eighth worst team in the NBA.

Yeah.

Obviously haven't been a draw in free agency.

The trades have been perplexing, to say it best.

But man, I just don't... The Bulls, it seems like their situation, Rob, got worse with all these new things kind of in the ether.

I didn't think it was possible, but I feel worse about them even since the deadline.
