Just two thoughts:

1) Karma doesn't exist. There's no way it would allow Cleveland to keep winning lotteries after they constantly fuck shit up

2) Mallory Edens just made me a Bucks fan

Free agents everywhere have a new view on playing milwaukee.... :yahoo:

G Irving
G Waiters
F Wiggins
F Thompson
C Varejao

Bennett & Jack & Deng off the bench.

Cavs have five Top 4 draft picks, all 23 years old or younger. That's pretty nuts.

Not saying it's rigged but something should be done to prevent things like this. A team shouldn't be able to get #1 pick with 9th worst record. Moving up 8 spots while others ahead of them move down. Maybe you limit who can win the top pick to top 5 worst records or just scrap all together

all i know is this, if the Lakers end up getting the top pick(hell, even the top 3 pick), the "fix" accusations are gonna FLY around here tomorrow...:lol:


Actually I think it was rigged to make sure that the Lakers DON'T GET A TOP 3 PICK - They also rigged it so that Cleveland got a top 3 again - so screw all of them crooks

On a similar note I don't think a team should lose the rights to a player they drafted if that player chooses to sit out the year to hopefully force a trade to a team he wants

If a team drafts a player they should keep the rights to that player 1 year later or even 10 years later if they don't trade the rights away.

Cavaliers might just have the goods now to get Lebron back. Man did some teams win and some lose.

The Cavs get #1 again. Three times in four years. The Timberwolves who have been in the lottery as much if not more than any team in the last 25 years have not moved up even 1 spot ever! No team has been screwed by the lottery more than the Wolves.


The year Shaq and Mourning came out the Wolves had the worst record in the league, guess where they drafted? Yep, third! Ended up with Christian Fucking Laettner!


The NBA draft lottery makes wrestling look real...

Well when the Magic were picked at like the 12th pick or something it automatically gave the Cavs a top 3 pick. I didn't hear why, anyone know??

A team can only move up from their spot to the top 3 or back 2 if 2 other teams move up into the top 3.

So the lakers could have gotten 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, or 8

In the Cavs case it was 1, 2, 3, 12, 13, or 14. Since 13 and 14 were already a different team and then 12 was awarded to the Magic then it was a top 3 pick.

They need to get rid of this stupid lottery and allow the worst teams to have the top picks. Yeah maybe some teams throw some games to a degree at the end of the season but the Sixer swere terrible no matter what. If you are the worst you deserve to have the first pick
