Bulls have the 9th all by ourselves.

Bobcats tried to give the 8th pick to the Bulls - but the idiot Bulls decided to win the last 2 meaningless games to refuse the offer.

Darn

If the Nets & another team were tied, each team gets same number of ping pong ball combinations.

A coin would be flipped to see who would get the higher selection in case neither team wins a top 3 pick.

The team that wins gets the higher first round pick - but the lower second round pick.

Last year there was a three way tie among Bobcats, Bulls & Kings. Coin flips made the teams pick 8, 9, and 10. (Bobcats later traded their pick to Golden State)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NBA_Draft_Lottery

If % are the same as last year, we have 11 out of 1000 lotto balls. 1.1% of #1 pick. Around 3.5% of top 3. Around 96% 10th, And <1% getting 11th or 12th.
