I don't want GS or the Kings to get a top two pick. They already got great players last draft, how about we get our chance.

Its their nasty RealGM posters, isn't it?
If I'm perfectly honest, that's 10% of the reason I like to see the Lakers fail. 75% if Kobe-the-criminal, and 15% is their Yankee's payroll approach to the NBA.

I'd probablly be most upset ath the Clippers getting another 1st, unless they decide to take like Whiteside as the #1 pick. (*edit* Willie Whitehead probably don't get drafted to anyone in the NBA this year)
Utah and GS are the other two I really don't want to get it. Deron and Wall/Turner would rule the division for the next 10 years.

I'd hate to see Utah win it. Division rivals with a 50+ win team getting number 1? It doesn't get much worse. It would really piss me off to see them pass us when we tanked the whole season, and they went to the conference semis.
Clippers would be pretty upsetting. They've screwed up enough number ones. Give someone else a turn. And back-to-back number ones would be really rigtarded. I don't think Wall and Griffin balling together for the next decade would be good for our health.

I'd hate to see SAC and GS winning it (and everyone who was better than the 7th worst record).

Here's my ranking system. 1 being really offensive and 14 being Christmas in the middle of May.
1 Jazz - Same division + playoff team
2 Pistons - They would have been a good trade partner with a later pick
3 Clippers - That team would be loaded
4 Kings - Boo teams that rebuild when we are rebuilding
5 warriors - Hooray beer
6 Rockets - Almost were a playoff team without Yao
7 Grizzlies - Their owner is insane, so I wouldn't be too concerned
8 Hornets - Collison + Paul + Wall = Grab some popcorn and enjoy the offseason
9 Pacers - That would create a monster
10 76ers - Brand's contract would still weigh them down
11 wizards - Arenas + Wall = entertainment
12 Raptors - One year too late
13 Nets- If LBJ left, I would rather have him go to NJ than NY
14 Wolves - You don't know want to know what I'd do for this to happen

The Jazz, for the reasons mentioned. I wouldn't mind seeing the Pacers win it if we miss out. I've always had a soft spot for them, It seems like they get even less attention than some of the other lottery teams. Wall would obviously change that. Plus they're in the east, I'd hate to see Wall go to another western conf. team.

Grizzlies. Wall can be the last piece of his puzzle.
Wall
Mayo
Gay
Randolph
Gasol

If a team other than the wolves win the lottery, I just hope it is an Eastern Conference team. Memphis, Utah, LAC would be my least favorites. I wouldn't mind NJ or WAS so much.
What's more important is who ends up at 2 if we don't land top 2. We need a team there that is set at the wings and has a hole at PF. GS, SAC, NJ, DET, IND, TOR are all possibilities of teams who might be open to a pickswap. LAC would be worst case. WAS is iffy. Utah, NOH, MEM, PHI, HOU would be bad news.

I think it would be pretty amusing to see Utah win it with NY's pick, just to piss all the Knicks fans off.

I do not want to see any other team besides the Wolves win the lottery because the Wolves never had the option of picking first in the NBA draft...

if we do not win then let the East win. Last thing we need is a Portland-Sea thing again.

I think Portland and Seattle was also the last time (and only time I can remember) the two worst teams didn't make top 3.
I'd agree with the hating to see any team in the West, however Golden State, Sacramento, and especially the Clippers would be the worst.

Worse than Utah? Do you really want to give them Turner?

Actually, he might be right. If the Clippers won the John Wall Sweepstakes, they could become the new frontrunner for LeBronaggedon. How many championships does this team win?
John Wall
Eric Gordon
LeBron James
Blake Griffin
Chris Kaman

Yea, specifically Sactown, Utah and the clips. Wow that would stink.

I wouldn't like to see Utah win because they're in our division, but I've never disliked the team so that's why I put GS, Sac, and LAC ahead of them. But yeah, that would suck because Deron and Turner would be a sick backcourt, so would Turner and Curry or Wall and Evans.
Diggler, that is a scary idea for the Clippers. I don't think they have a shot at LeBron unless they did get the #1, but wow.
