If the lottery is rigged, then the lakers, Knicks, and maybe OKC get the top three picks? If the lakers win the lottery, I think they can get a good base to build from with Randle and Okafor.

Lakers, Knicks, heat go 1, 2, 3 and we hear no end of the wwe comparisons

I just did that Mock generator and those 3 teams were the top 3 in that order. Even the generator is in on the conspiracy!

2015 NBA Lottery Mock Draft - ESPN

This is a good thing to play around with to get an idea of how things might shake out given the odds. Like run it 5 to 10 times just to see the trends. For example, I did it 10 times. The only time the Heat didn't pick #10 was when they actually won the lottery. Also, in that 10 times, the Lakers lost their pick 4 times. Sure its a random generator but it does give a small idea.

I did this thing a while back and it took 14 tries for the wolves to get the 1st pick SMH

We'll hear it no matter what.

- Pre-lottery everyone is all "if this happens then we know it's rigged".
- Then something else happens.
- Then we hear all about why what happened actually makes sense for the league and proves it is rigged.

Forgot about the Thunder.

If they got #1 overall, it could end up vaulting them into the upper echelon like Duncan did with the Spurs.

If memory serves me correctly, they lost a ton of games that year because their top guys were hurt.

Granted, there is no Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmy in this year's draft.

But, Okafor, Towns or Russell would be filthy.

I don't think Mudiay could play with Westbrook and I'm sure they don't want another Reggie Jackson " I want my own Team " situation.

If the Lakers get the # 1 pick (the Lottery is rigged if that happens!:D) they should consider trading it to Cleveland for LeBron.:pound:

Everybody thought the Lakers would get the top pick last year, and they ended up with the 7th.

Lakers get the 1st pick. Kobe already banged Silver for it.

Huh...I wasn't aware of this.

If the Heat fall back one spot, they lose their pick.

That would suck.

There are two scenarios where teams could lose their picks, depending on where they fall, thanks to prior trade agreements.

The Sixers will get the Lakers pick if it should fall to sixth or seventh, and Philadelphia could also end up with Miami’s pick (via dealing Thaddeus Young to Minnesota) if it falls outside the top 10.

If the Lottery is rigged this year the Lakers & Knicks will get the 1st 2 picks. Not sure what order though. Just don't wanna see the fuckin' 76ers will the Lottery.

#2 pick is like the #1 pick in this draft. What matters what Center you get. NBA helps out the Lakers.
