And so you're thinking to yourselves, okay, the Bulls are going to take the required nosedive in the standings to catch up with some of these other tanking teams that have been in tank mode long before you thought to even explore that avenue.
The Nets have the fifth worst record in the NBA.
And what that does, just to give you guys a sense of what that means, if the Nets finish in their current standing fifth worst record in the NBA, they will have a 10.5% chance at getting the number one overall pick, 1-10, better than 1-10, and they will have a 42.1% chance of getting a top four pick.
Now, here's the issue for the Bulls.
They are 24-30, and despite having lost five straight and eight of their last nine games, 24-30 only puts them at the 10th worst record in the NBA.
If the season ended today, they would have a 13.9% chance at a top four pick and a 3% chance of the number one overall pick.
It's not bad enough.
And the issue is they already have 24 wins.
The teams directly behind them in tanking efforts, and they're not even necessarily tanking, are the Hornets with 25 wins, only one more than the Bulls.
The Clippers also have 25 wins.
The Trail Blazers and the Hawks each with 26 wins.
So if you win a little too much more, you won't even have the 10th worst record in the NBA.
And you're thinking, well, why does this matter?
The Bulls traded all their players.
They've got seven new players on the roster.
This isn't a Bulls team that looks like it's tanking, even though they've lost five in a row.
They are 0-3 since the deadline.
I want to remind you, they're playing severely undersized because Jalen Smith is dealing with a hamstring injury.
At the end of the third quarter of that game against the Nets last night, they were tied.
At the end of the third quarter of Saturday night's game against the Nuggets, they had a lead.
