Not much discussion regarding NBA Lottery...

[nikossf]

Took a couple bigger odds just for fun.. Shittt...a buck or two to win a hundo.. not bad!! LETS HIT 1 OF THESE!! Personally staying away from the two obvious choices though.. Bobcats/Wizards.. Any thoughts?

[milwaukee mike]

at .7% if the bucks get the #1 pick i will run around the neighborhood screaming and laughing

might be naked, depends on how much i've had to drink by then

[thetrinity]

pick the teams the nba wants to be relevant.

[mynameismud]

how ping pong balls do the bobcats have?

I like how ppl even think a random draft lottery is somehow fixed lmao

Don't care much about the lottery, but the actual draft is less than a month away. Knicks should do whatever it takes to get Kendall Marshall, I think Harrison Barnes and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist will both have really productive careers in the NBA. On the other hand I'm not really big on Jeremy Lamb or Austin Rivers. And watch out for Terrence Ross, he could be a bit of a sleeper.

Have to agree with you on Rivers. He should have stayed another year. It's not like he comes from a poor family. Maybe he got tired of Duke academics.

Hornets because thats the way the NBA sold them, they said they were going to rig the draft lottery so they get two top 3 picks including the #1

[5mike5]

team with most ping pongs have only won 3 of 18 i think i saw

[Cuse0323]

Can't wait to see bums like Jeremy Lamb, Barnes and Rivers go ahead of Waiters. 3 years from now those teams will be hating themselves.

[Speedy88]

Even if Charlotte gets the first pick in the draft they'll probably find a way to screw it up and not take Anthony Davis.

[lunchbawks]

cleveland cavs will get #1 pick

Charlotte needs to do the right thing and sign on Jerry Sloan as coach. Then get some players.

Hah, Jerry Sloan would never let Michael Jordan be his boss.

Sloan interviewed for the gig last week. He wants back in.

would be easy to fix wouldnt it behind closed doors with the director of nba securityand im not even a fix guy.

[thebestthereis]

Charlotte needs every ping pong ball in Asia to be relevant

[Pauulzcappin]

Lakers please.

[nikossf]

My picks are in.. **** it..Im puttin money on half the teams in the NBA!!

Raptors, Cavs, Pistons, Warriors, Blazers, Bucks, Suns, Rockets...

Gotta hit 1 right...

[nikossf]

Actually...after careful examination... who else could I have put money on? hahahahhaahhaahahahaha


oops...didnt play kings.. should I?

[Br0nxer]

seems like lately it has gone against the obvious.

doubt bobcats win 1st pick

shit. teams with 1 or 2% chances of getting it have came in the last couple years

Huh? Have you been hiding under a rock? Did you not see the Ewing fix. Nowadays Stern doesn't even have to show it live anymore, he just gives you the results. Did you see the makeup call they gave Cleveland last year? Expect more of the same this year with Cleveland and possibly Charlotte.

[Speedy88]

Exactly, why don't they show the actual ping pong balls being drawn......

[GunShard]

Terrible system. Just give the #1 pick to the Bobcats.

[iQon]

New Orleans Hornets win 1st pick +565
Hornets win 1st pick via Timberwolves +6650

basketball reasons...

[Speedy88]

Wouldn't be surprised to see Brooklyn get the first pick.

[cuse528]

Guarantee Waiters will be one of the top players from this draft. His game is perfect for the NBA and he can go to the rim like nobody else.

[MJT1212]

Lets go bobcatssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssss

[Br0nxer]

Wouldn't be surprised to see Brooklyn get the first pick.

kind of agree

i think its fixed

lebron to cleveland-they didn't have the most ping pong balls

d rose to chicago-they didn't have the most

new arena in brooklyn. stern might give it to them

[Speedy88]

[Yolkix]

I honestly think you guys just have it so engraved in your head that everything is fixed its unreal. Betting on the draft lottery is pointless, you might as well just play the real lottery. The only thing "fixed" about it is that each team has a fixed probaility to win, meaning you are simply playing a random event and losing value on the juice.

[Powderguy]

Not sure what there is to discuss, ping pong balls on TV for 30 min *yawns

[orlandoisme]

Hornets will win #1 pick

[CheeseHead]

No matter who wins...the NBA draft lottery is fixed
