with last night's loss to the Bulls I believe we are now at 17 games lost by 5 points or less this season. I think we're at 11 games by 3 points or fewer.

As a good friend said to me "controlled tanking".

Hey!

I like to think of it as tanking with dignity.

A poll of NBA execs suggested that most of them didn't want the 1st overall pick because, as of yet, a clear top talent hasn't emerged. I'll take a pick in the 4-12 range over a top 3 pick at the moment.

The consensus top 3 so far is Shabbazz, Nerlens and Zeller. None of these fill me with any excitement.

In my opinion the only hope of the number 1 pick right now is that a team picking in the 4-12 range really loves Shabbazz or Nerlens and is willing to swap draft picks and give up an unprotected 2014 pick.

You're married?! What was all that one-in-a-million talk?
