Tankathon Spins, Trail Blazers options to trade back in the draft + Terry Stotts to the Lakers?: We got NBA coaching news with Mike Brown hired by the Sacramento Kings and former Trail Blazers coach Terry Stotts interviewing with the Los Angeles Lakers. Plus it's time to take a spin on the Tankathon machine, simulating the NBA draft lottery thrice to see where the Trail Blazers land. Will my comically bad luck continue or did Portland find its way into the top 3? To close the show, listeners have questions about the value of the Blazers getting a top pick and how landing higher up in the draft could lead to Portland trading back. Is there value to be had by jumping up in the lottery and then intentionally moving back on draft night?

Portland Trail Blazers get the 7th pick in the NBA draft. Should they Keep It, Trade Back or Trade Out?: The Portland Trail Blazers dropped one spot in the 2022 NBA Draft Lottery to lan the 7th overall selection. It was a deflating night at the end of a disaster season. Yikes. So what do they do now? Should they keep the pick? If they do, targets could include Baylor's Jeremy Sochan or Arizona's Bennedict Mathurin. Should they attempt to trade back and drop in the draft while adding another player? Or should they just try to swap the pick for an impactful veteran? One of these is the wrong path, but certainly all of them are on the board. After a walk through the Blazers options, we look back at the history of the seventh pick in the NBA draft to get a sense of what expectations for this draft slot should be.
