Until they actually do the drawing live in plain view, I will have trouble believing that the lottery isn't fixed.

 

[hmanvolfan]

It has to be fixed since the poor ol' Grizzlies had the worst team in the league last year and got the fourth pick.... :cray:

 

[myrobbins7]

Yeah, that sucked Hman..BAD

Yeah. Letting the top two picks last year going to the two most out of the way markets in the NBA.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

If it's fixed then the Knicks will win the lottery.

 

[hmanvolfan]

Why not Portland winning again?

 

[VOLNBAMA]

they have a really good chance.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

i hope the T-Wolves get the #2 pick.

 

[hmanvolfan]

Everybody just has to root for the Grizzlies to get the #1 pick....

 

[Vercingetorix]

It's weird to think that they're holding an NBA draft lottery, and that the Hawks aren't in it.

 

[hmanvolfan]

Global warming. Blame Al Gore.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

3 picks left. I'm feeling lucky!

 

[VOLNBAMA]

Damn!

 

[VOLNBAMA]

Bulls win the lottery.

 

[Vercingetorix]

Wow. The fix is on!

 

[hmanvolfan]

I'm sorta surprised the Knicks got shafted...

 

[doozer]

unbelievable.

Just wait till next year.

I just love how the teams with 1.8% percent chance of winning the number one pick seem to keep doing it.

 

[Vercingetorix]

TVA is right. Until they draw the ping-pong balls out in front of the cameras, people are going to keep arguing that the fix is in. I know that supposedly representatives from each team get to watch the process, but they could make a lot of controversy go away just by bringing the lottery machine out front.

This officially marks the end of the Kirk Hinrich era in Chicago

Screw the NBA and it's lottery. Griz have the best chance last year and get the 4th pick. They have the 5th best chance this year and get the 5th pick. :furious3:


A #23 from Chicago is a top draft prospect and the Bulls get the #1 pick. Just saying.


Griz are going to be boring and bad for yet another year. Next year's draft is far from good too.

 

[notsolegato]

Screw the NBA and it's lottery. Griz have the best chance last year and get the 4th pick. They have the 5th best chance this year and get the 5th pick. :furious3:

i dont mean to nitpick, but if the grizz had the 5th best chance and got the 5th pick.....doesn't that work out?:ermm:

 

[Jaytrain5]

It'll make for a feel-good story if the hometown Bulls draft D Rose with the #1 pick.

 

[Gcrop]

i dont mean to nitpick, but if the grizz had the 5th best chance and got the 5th pick.....doesn't that work out?:ermm:

Yes it does but I was venting that it didn't work in 2007 when they had the best chance of winning the first pick.
