I got the Bulls the first simulation and im gonna be superstitious for a moment and not go again. Zion/Lauri/Lavine? Back to 20 national tv games.


If the Bulls cant win though....Dallas, Phoenix, or Atlanta would be ok. I dont imagine anyone outside Cleveland wants to see them win again. 4 is plenty. Those fans have had plenty to make up for the dark 80s where they made the NBA put in rules against trading your picks year after year. They traded the pick that would have been James worthy/Nique. They have had luck enough since.

[highwhey]

we lost a chance at Lew Alcindor bc of a flip coin toss. he wet on to be a GOAT AND A 6x NBA champion.

we won't lose a chance at a new GOAT this year. LES GO SUNS.

On an outside chance, barring atlanta/dallas/memphis losing, I'd love to see Philly (via Sac) pull out the victory. They'd have carte blanche to finish off their championship roster (not that I care for Philly at all, it'd just be an interesting situation).

Look, you can come up with reasons as to why the league could have rigged it for literally every single team listed, as such, these conspiracy theories are just fun...

But... if the league actually does rig this thing... ever... this would be the year to rig it in favor of the Knicks. They are my official prediction for the lottery win, despite having probably 86% chance of not winning it.

Who would I most like to see win it? The Lakers. The meltdowns would be so incredible and the LeBron trolls would talk about LeBron's legacy being saved by Zion...

[imdaman99]

My team aside? Please. I can't root for ANYONE else getting the #1 pick. When is it time to throw the Knicks a bone? And it's not even that much of a bone, they were the worst team in the league.

The reason they are so incompetent is because they never get high picks. The highest pick they had in forever was #4 and they got Porzingis who turned out to be good. Enough of the Cavs and Lakers and Timberwolves and Hawks getting rewarded already.

MSG deserves success already.

[DMAVS41]

Obviously I want the Mavs.

After that, I'd like to see the Bulls. I think they'd be really interesting and I think they would still be able to carve out some real cap as well to add another player in free agency.

I mean, if they got Zion and another solid player and were healthy...I think they'd actually be really good...like 50 to 55 wins good.

[wagexslave]

If the Suns don't win, I will be almost just as happy if we get the 2nd pick. Ja Morant is a beast and fills our biggest need. Out of everyone aside from the Suns. Out of teams other than the Suns, I'd prefer Chicago win since my friend is a Bulls fan. I don't want the Lakers or Mavs to win or move up though.

[eliteballer]

Someone sticky this.

[BallsOut]

If Cleveland wins this year's draft or any of the next two years, expect LeBron to pen a prodigy son returns home to retire in Cleveland letter just so he can ship out their pick for another finals run in the weak East.

That said, Knicks, Bobcats and Bulls are who I'd like to see win the lottery.

[sammichoffate]

Cleveland can get buried under snow for all I care. I would like Chicago, Atlanta, or Phoenix to get the 1st pick.

[tripledouble55]

Least favorite: Cleveland. 3x winner in the most silly fashion for 2 of them.

Timberwolves fan, so obviously would love for them to for the first time ever in franchise history despite 22 times in the lottery, to actually MOVE UP just ONCE...get the 1st pick. But yeah, not likely.

Of the main hopefuls...I'm hoping for ATL or PHX.

Outside my Bulls, the Knicks



They deserve it. The NBA is a better and more fun product to watch when the Knicks are good. Give them some exciting talent and give us the Knicks on TNT Thursdays.


The least. Well Cleveland. We've seen them win and miss enough already.

[Big_Dogg]

I would like the Knicks to win if I was picking a team other than my own, the Suns had it last year, the Mavs are going to be scary with Zinger and Doncic and the Cavs, well as everyone has said, they shouldn't continue to get rewarded for mediocrity

Unfortunately I think the Knicks will get either 2nd or 3rd, but then they might be lucky and win out in free agency so hopefully there is some glimmer of hope in MSG

[PP34Deuce]

I think hes new York or Chicago bound.

[HylianNightmare]

New orleans

[Kblaze8855]

As much as I **** with Knick fans due to growing up around so many who laughably thought they would beat Jordan eventually?

I wouldnt be outraged if they got it. Generally speaking the Knicks being good is good for the NBA. Far as just....whats best for the league?

Bulls/Knicks in whatever order getting Zion and Ja. Phoenix needs Ja the most but thats such an uninteresting squad. They have some players I like but.....Zion out there is just in a no mans land.

The Bulls would have a solid young core with either pick and the Knicks too. If all they got out of free agency was Kemba and Tobias....adding Zion as the 4 would make them worth watching.

[Manny98]

I want Hawks to get Zion because he fits best there and they will bring the best out of his talent

F*ck the Knicks they don't deserve shit

we all know low key zion will go to the knicks or cavs.

new lottery odds are bs. small team markets can't attract big free agents. why is silver rewarding NY when they have a good chance of getting KD and Kyrie?

Why do people consistently believe that dan gilbert being one of 30 owners is the only one responsible for c0ck blocking the lakers attempted rape of the ownerless new orleans hornets/pelicans? You probably don't remember the CP3 deal if that's what you believe.

[bison]

Eh, Knicks fans have suffered long enough. They haven’t been good since the early 00s. At least Memphis, Washington, hawks etc have fielded decent teams in that time span at one point or another. But if the Knicks drop to #6 or something I will still laugh.

Why do people consistently believe that dan gilbert being one of 30 owners is the only one responsible for c0ck blocking the lakers attempted rape of the ownerless new orleans hornets/pelicans? You probably don't remember the CP3 deal if that's what you believe.
The following is an email from Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert to NBA commissiner David Stern. It was obtained by a number of news outlets.


Commissioner,

It would be a travesty to allow the Lakers to acquire Chris Paul in the apparent trade being discussed.

This trade should go to a vote of the 29 owners of the Hornets.

Over the next three seasons this deal would save the Lakers approximately $20 million in salaries and approximately $21 million in luxury taxes. That $21 million goes to non-taxpaying teams and to fund revenue sharing.

I cannot remember ever seeing a trade where a team got by far the best player in the trade and saved over $40 million in the process. And it doesn't appear that they would give up any draft picks, which might allow to later make a trade for Dwight Howard. (They would also get a large trade exception that would help them improve their team and/or eventually trade for Howard.) When the Lakers got Pau Gasol (at the time considered an extremely lopsided trade) they took on tens of millions in additional salary and luxury tax and they gave up a number of prospects (one in Marc Gasol who may become a max-salary player).

I just don't see how we can allow this trade to happen.

I know the vast majority of owners feel the same way that I do.

When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise...

Dan G.

They get the #1 pick plus got convince Ad to stay or even if he still decides to leave they have Zion... yep not rigged. Why would it be rigged for the fcking knicks. I would’ve said the same thing if Lakers got him.

[Meticode]

Except this draft ain't deep. It's basically Zion, Morant and then a huge dropoff in talent.
It is deep. :oldlol:

Hawks bust. As if the 8th and 10th picks have any value. This franchise is still a bust with nothing going for it.

[raprap]

That was fun :oldlol:

[Bosnian Sajo]

Such horsesh*t



We get the worse pick possible. And Pelicans, who have their franchise player demanding to be traded get the number 1 pick? Kinda like when Chris Paul did it years ago.


I don't mind Memphis at 2 but I was gonna go ballistic if the Lakers got no. 1.



Poor Knicks though. I really wanted to see them win it outside of the Bulls.


Aww, would you have? It would have been rigged if Lakers got 1st right? But since we didnt, its not rigged.


You fans are so ****ing cute.

Lakers trading Lonzo Ingram and 4th pick to Pelicans for AD

Pelicans pick Zions friend RJ Barrett
RJ is going 3rd

Aww, would you have? It would have been rigged if Lakers got 1st right? But since we didnt, its not rigged.

Yes of course you moron. Everyone and their mother would have said it was rigged if the Lakers got 1. Hell I think it's rigged they got 4 cuz they don't wanna see their golden boy in a major market keep losing.


But thanks for the compliment. Usually it's females calling me that......ehhh i Guess you do have that reputation for being one tho.

So it ain't rigged since New Orleans and Memphis got top 2? I just wanna make sure you understand what a dumbass you sound like.

[ballinhun8]

Also.



Did anyone see that the Pelicans logo was already on the screen before the team was announced that they jumped over?


That's why Rachel Nichols had that awkward interaction with their GM because I'm not sure he even knew they had jumped yet

Do you know how to comprehend? Rigging doesn't just have to be the top 2 picks.


And in my original post I implied it was rigged because NO got #1. Hence why I said that NO got AD back then to replace Paul.


Comprende cabron? I know English aint the first language for you but my writing isn't hard to keep up with chica.

Ok jackass so literally any team other than your team getting #1 = rigged.


New Orleans? Rigged. Lakers? Rigged. Knicks? Rigged. Bulls? Ayyyyy


Gtfo with that bullshit logic. It's a draft ffs.

I caught that Pelicans logo too.

I caught that Pelicans logo too.

That just means the producers realized it before Nichols and then prompted her.

[Kblaze8855]

Clear something up for me people....


Do you want the draft fair and unrigged....or do you want it to be illegally rigged for your team?

[Ben Simmons 25]

Fair and unrigged...

Give everyone in the lottery a 100% equal chance... draw the draft order backwards.

So put like 100+ ping pong balls in... equal amount of balls for all teams in the lottery... then draw backwards.

They used to all have equal odds... I'm sure some teams bitched about it... but it solves tanking.

[FreezingTsmoove]

RJ is going 3rd

Then they might go for Zions other friend Cam Reddish or Romeo Langford (new Joe Johnson)

This off-season might get crazy.. Trade AD? Start Zion and let Julius Randle come off of the bench? Will N.O. get another center if Davis is traded?

stay tuned

[thefatmiral]

So just keep ad for another year ? I mean no other team has enough to offer right.

[stalkerforlife]

I'm glad NO got it after what the quitter did to them.

Nah play Zion and Randle together. Bully ball. :bowdown:

[Draz]

Knicks top 3 in a three player draft. RJ would have went #1. We may also package him to NO for AD. Either way, better than giving a #1 up for AD.

AD is proven talent and HOF at 26. A team built to win now if we get KD and or Kyrie it puts us closer today than tomorrow.

Regardless, if we keep RJ, it's not bad at all. We didn't drop to 5.

Also, Zion has no jump shot. He's pushing 280-300lbs. May be injury prone.

We may have dodged a bullet. Ja might even fall to 3.

[RoseCity07]

I think we can all agree that best thing about tonight is the Lakers aren't going to get anyone good.:lol

[Gougou]

Grizzlies Lineup:


JV
Ja Morant
Jaren Jackson Jr


This might be sick tbh.

[Uncle Drew]

Horseshit.

[DaHeezy]

Knicks should snatch up Koby White. He's got that assassin gene. RJ has as much killer instinct as Wiggins

[bladefd]

Hmm, is AD good add next to LeBron and another max player? Say any one of Kawhi, Durant, Klay or Kyrie (in that order)

[qrich]

The chaos was amazing though, thinking on it. 3 teams moving up six or more slots.

LOVE IT!

[DocSlam]

RJ has more heart than Wiggins. But they are both serious ball hogs. A good coach can develop RJ, and teach him the difference between a good shot and a bad shot.

[ImKobe]

Don't get the hype with RJ. He looked good in Duke's system & playing next to perhaps the most dominant College player ever, but as a 6'6 guard he could barely crack 30% on College 3s and is Lonzo-ball tier as a FT shooter.

Coby White's game looks a lot nicer and he can shoot, though I don't like his shooting form or his big ass fro.

[Foster5k]

RIGGED ASF!!! Obviously, rigged. Pelicans? :oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:

AD: "Sup, Zion!"

Zion: "Sup, bro."

AD: "RUN!"

NBA lost billions last night. NO and Memphis as the top 2 has got to hurt.

[superduper]

I actually feel bad for whichever rookie gets drafted by the Lakers. Dude is going to have his entire future and life ruined by Bran.

[Sakkreth]

Happy for Memphis. They better pick Morant.

Lebron made the Cavs trade the first pick for Kevin Love. Don't be surprised if the Lakers trade that pick.
