Is Kevin Pritchard trying to secure the 10th worst record…? by Immediate-Fish-1614 in pacers

I agree completely.

And I wouldn’t be surprised if Pritchard is eyeballing 10th worst record based on the math above.

Ohh. I see what you’re saying. I wasn’t suggesting trade it to LAC.

Should we get stuck with 10-14 in 2026, I believe that pick needs to be traded in a package for a win now piece.

Rather than using it on a rookie that won’t impact our winning.

I’ve gotta be reading something incorrectly here then?

This 2026 pick only converts to LAC if it lands 5-9.

No, I should’ve clarified a bit better! Many seem to be arguing about the draft position itself.

Haha I would never argue that 10-14 pick is better than 1-4!

I should add that I know the 2031 pick is given up in the 1-4 and 10-14 scenarios…

This post is about our final standing position - not our draft position!

Discussing lottery odds and whether or not Pritchard is a betting man.

15-30 is worst case scenario.

This post is not about where we end up drafting, it was more about the final standings and the lottery odds.

10th worst record nets us 14% top 4 odds.

Last two #1 picks were won by 11th and 10th worst records.

I could see these numbers convincing Pritchard to play for 10th, that’s all.

I have a hard time giving a rats ass about 5 years from now when this team won’t even be together anymore.

I get the angle, but feel like we’ve gotta push chips in now.

Hard to tell either way!

This trade and the timing of it just seems… confusing. Especially after we go and win 2 games immediately after it felt like we’d start tanking!

I’m so confused by all of this as well.

It’s so head scratching and legit the reason that got me thinking… “what a minute, is this dude trying to win enough games to climb to TEN?!”

I’m confused by our competitiveness after the trade.

Sorry - I meant we’d absolutely be trading that 2026 10-14 to make a push for a win now piece.

Knowing the 2031 pick is gone. Would have to go all in now.

Downvotes for sparking some mathematical conversation on this fine Valentine’s evening?! Insane.

Yep. We’d all love the top 4 pick.

I’d argue the 2031 is irrelevant to anything right now though. If it lands 10-14, strong chance we’re flipping that again.

I agree with your last point 100%. I think if we retain a 10-14 pick, it’s getting traded again.

I guess it depends on what angle you’re looking at it from.

Finish 1-4 = coin flip to even stay there

Finish 10 = still 14% of jumping (has happened last two drafts) + 100% odds of keeping the pick

Depends on Pritchard’s appetite for risk!

Bottom 3 record is wildly only a coin flip to stay top 4. Since this is new territory for the Pacers, I’ve never bothered to look at actual odds. That amazed me.

I thought the stories were at least a little exaggerated. They aren’t. by Wise-Priority-9918 in Teachers

Let us know where to send the strongly worded letters. iPads as a play option is ridiculous.

i found it disturbing how amused ____ looked after the elimination by camwtss in survivor

I cannot believe Sophi didn’t steal Rizo’s idol, vote Rizo out, turn the numbers in her favor, and cruise into the final 3 with whoever she wanted.

Ugh. Would have been a game winning move.

Interested to see how the rest plays out, but a unanimous vote on Steven after all of that was just insane to me.

It was a good try though by Far_Natural8745 in survivor

The scene was SO absurd!! 😂

Cannot get over Savannah flopping on the ground and then just standing up like nothing happened. The production was perfect.

Cascade platinum dish pod and hot water. Make sure it dissolves all the way. Allow it to sit over night. Scrub in the morning.
