LIVE REACTION: Raptors Fall To 9th At The NBA Draft Lottery..

This is a nightmare. The Sixers. Okay. Could have been worse, y’all. Could have been worse, y’all. Second pick. Off. No. [ __ ] off. Dallas got it. No. No. No. No. What an absolute nightmare of a NBA draft lottery we have just endured. The top four picks have yet to have been announced, but the Toronto Raptors. [ __ ] man. A 12.9% chance. Have fallen to ninth. Have fallen to ninth. Oh man, that is that is bad news. Unfortunately, the Spurs and the Dallas Mavericks have leapfrogged up into the top four, which bumps the Raptors to nine. Philly are in the top four as well. It is a nightmare scenario. The two teams I want to I want to have the first overall pick the least are Dallas and Philly. They are in the top four alongside the Hornets who kind of deserve it in a way and and and the Spurs. I don’t want the Spurs to get it either, man. Nico getting that pick would be absolutely positively sickening, but it’s already pretty sickening. Uh, okay. Man, that’s tough. I mean, just processing now the Raptor side of this. Oh, man. tough. Um, they had an 86% chance or so of of a top eight pick. They fall to they fall to ninth in this unlikely scenario. Everything about it is like, you know, unlikely. But yeah, that’s that’s a bummer. That’s a bummer. To have uh to have sat through that season, to have endured some of the games that I endured, you know, I’m not saying a top four pick would have made it all well would have made it all worth it, but like also, you know, seventh or eighth pick would have been good. Ninth definitely feels quite quite sour and um quite disappointing. Y’all, I’m going to be honest. I said it’d be a fine day if they’re seventh or eighth. It’d be a great day if they’re top four. It’d be a bad day if they’re ninth or lower. And uh that is the that is the reality we have. So look, um guys they might have been looking at common Malawash um Derek Queen possible backup center options. Those are guys that that could fall to nine currently. common Malawash projected the the ninth pick on Tankathon in their mock draft. A lot will change. Uh there are good players in this range of the draft. But again, it’s just like man tough a tough reality to accept having endured what the Raptors uh did endure for for the for the season. Um yeah, that’s a that’s a rough one. Uh what do you what do we think, guys? What do we think in the chat? Yeah, the Sixers jumping makes it a bit worse. Like three teams I didn’t want to jump. I think like the th the three teams I didn’t want to jump were Spurs, Maverick, Sixers. They all jumped to the top four. That’s terrible, man. Boss. Tough one here. Hopefully Charlotte gets this. Uh if the Spurs got it, it’d be a dynasty, so I don’t really want that. I don’t want him to go to Dallas. Uh, whatever. We’ll see. It’s out of our hands here. Cooper flag. Nico doesn’t deserve this. The Sixers don’t deserve this. The Spurs don’t deserve this. Let him go to Charlotte, man. God, if even the the Sixers got the second pick, my god, would Dylan Harper change things for that team. God, that just be Oh my god. It’s not rigged. It’s just that there was a chance it could happen and it happened. It is It is what it is, man. It sucks, but it’s not like they rigged it. It was just a It was just set amount of probabilities. It was a random draw and it’s a [ __ ] sandwich that we got to take a bite out of. All right, guys. Um, back from commercial break. We’re gonna join Mark Tatum to announce the top four picks. And now I’m nervous. I don’t I don’t want one of these teams to get it. Fourth pick be Philly. Oh, the Hornets got the fourth. Dude, this is a nightmare. This is a nightmare. The Sixers. Okay. Could have been worse, y’all. Could have been worse, y’all. Second pick. [ __ ] off. No. [ __ ] off. Dallas got it. [ __ ] off. No. No. No. No. No. You don’t just [ __ ] make the worst trade in NBA history and end up with the first overall pick, man. This This [ __ ] isn’t fair. None of this [ __ ] is [ __ ] fair. Now I’m really upset. Oh my god. that you can’t. No, no, no. You can’t [ __ ] trade Luca Donuts, get nothing for him, and get a generational player. Like, oh, they they have enough help. They’re they’re a no uh no income tax state. They have enough help as it is. There there are teams fighting for their lives out here. You don’t make the worst trade in NBA history already have the advantage of playing in Texas and then get the [ __ ] first overall pick. This Oh, throw it away. 1.8% chance. They had 1.8% chance. Oh my god. Oh, Nico [ __ ] Harrison of all [ __ ] people. God, if if there was ever if there was ever a team that did not deserve this, you literally just traded Luca Dantage for nothing and got Cooper flag, man. None of this shit’s fair. None of it. None of it. It I’m crashing out. I crashed out. I’m sorry. Yeah, odds. Odds don’t care about narratives. Good way of putting it, Doug. Bailed out. bailed out. Nico is like absolute maniacal laugh from Nico Erison right now. It’s not rigged, guys. Shut the [ __ ] up. It’s not rigged. Oh wow, though. That sucks. That sucks. Honestly, for Cooper flag, could that have gone any better? Like maybe if he goes to San Antonio cuz it’s also Texas and he gets to play with WBY. But like seriously, could this have gone any better? Really, realistically, probably not. What like an A+ outcome for Cooper Flag himself? No income tax state. Easy slot into that roster, man. Like no Kyrie for next season. He’s excuse me, he’s the top dog. Man, you know, it kind of kind of made my day bad when the Raptors got the ninth pick. That that really ruined my night. That seriously ruined my night. Oh boy. Nico Harrison, the most undeserving executive. The most undeserving executive or whatever you whatever. Oh my god. Well, like I said, it’s a [ __ ] sandwich for a lot of teams. We took a big old hardy bite of it today. Big old hearty bite of that [ __ ] sandwich for this one. Try Raptors will be selecting ninth overall. Um, that’s it.

The Raptors sadly fall to the 9th overall pick this draft lottery. A couple underserving teams made it past the Raptors and it has left the fan base scratching their heads. Teams like the Dallas Mavericks and San Antonio Spurs jumped way up into the top 4. Now we will take a look at who the Raptors can actually get and if they’ll have much of an impact next season with the Raptors. Stay tuned for more draft content coming your way!
