Intentionally Loosing
I'm almost to the point where I want this team to lose. The draft is a good one, between 6 and 8 players deep who could contribute to a winner as rookies. But I fully expect the Sonics to get the worst possible draft position and just miss the mark of good players.
Maybe the Sonics could package Rashaard for a top pick or two, and then use those picks with their own to move up. Depth is not the issue with this team, the lack of a star outside of the wing players is.
The wing spots (Shooting Guard, Small Forward) are the easiest to fill and I don't see a team with both stars at those slots ever getting far.
