Lottery is in 5 hours. Everyone pray for a top 3 pick.

Conspiracy theorist in me says Brooklyn wins the Anthony Davis Derby.

why do we do this to ourselves? Every year I have hope as if we wont get the 14th pick, then the lottery comes on and my wife asks what pick we got and I hit her with the jason terry face:

Don't call it the 14th pick.

It is officially renamed "the Rockets Pick."

I really don't like the lottery system. It rewards teams for failure while teams like our who work hard and try to win (rather than roll over like sleazy teams with no pride or self-respect) get the shaft.

:lol:

It was funny that the Houston Fourteenth sent Chandler Parsons, the guy who beat out the last 14th pick, to the draft!
