Question: If Magic make a run and make it to the playoffs, wouldn't we get their pick if they so chose? From that Francis trade. If so, we need to root for the Magic to win along with Detroit. ------------------ Not only am I president of the WaltWizFanClub, I'm also the member.
I think thats right. But guess what, pistons and magic are playing each other tonight! Who do we root for? ------------------ President of the Moochie Norris FAN CLUB
Orlando since this is the worst they'll do in many years to come.Instead,Hill is going to leave detroit so they'll suck next year and give us a lottery pick. ------------------ NEVER underestimate the heart of a champion!!!
I believe that both Detroit and Orlando simply owe us a first round pick. It doesn't neccessarily have to be their own. Orlando's got something like 8 first rounders over the next 4 years, so we'll probably get the lowest of those picks. As for Detroit, if they do end up in the lottery, then I'd imagine that they'd go out and trade for a late first rounder that they could send to us. Teams at the bottom of the draft are always looking to trade out of the first round. ------------------
