Hawks Draft Lotto: Which pick will we land?

[Spud2nique]

Which pick do you think we get in 2020. Also, what’s your lucky charm for the Hawks lotto. I usually eat wings but I need something new, I’m stagnating.

I need a lucky charm. Maybe I’ll go out and get a ’s foot . Are those still in?  

 

I hope we get the 1st pick. My math calculations and the local nerdery have left the NBA owing us 2 slots for even Steven. Original slot: 4, move up the owed 2, and we get the 2nd pick!  

Lets hope the 2nd pick is kinder to us than in 2005. Sorry Marv!

So long as we can get Edwards, it doesn't matter to me where we pick. But it's time for us to get the #1 overall.

Best case scenario is we land at 2 with Edwards gone.  Auction off Ball for future assets.

We better not fall behind any non bubble team I know that

You hate Edwards guts. Again, I get it, the team style we have built around Trae, Edwards may not fit, but individually, I’ll say it again, he has Iverson mentality, he’s a dog. 
 

I think it goes:

1. Pistons- Edwards

2. Hawks

3.  Wolves

4. Bulls

5. Warriors

@Jdawgflow The odds are with you my friend. 25.7%  

[JTB]

I’m going to roll with number 2...I feel good about the hawks chances at getting the number 1 pick or getting extremely close . For some odd reason I believe we will finish ahead of the warriors no matter what

Haha.  I didn’t really go out on a limb did I?  I just have a feeling we are going down this year instead of up for our lottery number.

 I may ignore this tomorrow night, and maybe they'll have better results.

The #3 has been pretty good to us - Horford and Trae+Cam is probably better than any other draft slot in Atlanta history.  That is what I voted for.

Pistons would most definetly go LaMelo in that scenario.

I'm not jinxing anything by voting. 

I know what I want us to get, and I know what we'll likely get, but I'm not going to say anything out loud until it's over.

And Pau Gasol #3 in 2001. 3 and 19 have been great numbers for us. 
 

Ole lucky #3, hey, that’s movin up a spot, I’ll take it.

I dig. Usually when I watch Hawks games I reposition myself based on the runs they go on. If I’m sitting on the floor playing with my pup and they go on a 19-2 run or something, I don’t move.

Agreed. Definitely Ball for them and the Knicks your right.

Agreed. I feel like they really wanna give it to us this year because we’ve never had the first, 1975, well a while but they stick don’t want the city of ATLANTA to be the headline. That’s why I’m going 2 as well.

Plus the lottery gods still owe us a spot.

This is the year we'll move up.  When there are no consensus stars.   That's ok.   Let's take Edwards.

NO! Didn’t you see my calculations or +/- spots for us in the draft since 2000? They own us +2, which starting at the 4th spot this year should leave us with with the 2nd pick. They almost want to give us #1 lol.
