If I was Rod Thorn I would......

^^ You know what I mean if we get the number 1 pick.

The goal should be to secure one of these players with thought of trying to get back to the playoffs.

Griffin
Harden

After that the rest of the list these players will need at least two years to develop!!!!!!

You're right. Thorn will call Stern tomorrow to tell him we'll take the #1 overall pick.

Hey don't be surprised. The NBA lottery is rigged. I mean who else holds a lottery behind closed doors? I've said it before and i'll say it again.... RIGGED!!......

I've been saying for years Stern rigs certain aspects of the NBA. With that said, I would not be too surprised if he let us get the #1 (or at least a top 3). I mean it's a long shot and depends on whether we pissed him off this year, but I think Stern thinks we're due.

As much as I like good conspiracy theories, if Stern really rigged the lottery, why would he not give the Knicks a top 3 pick during their decade of incompetence? It doesn't take a genius to see how much it helps the NBA's business (tv ratings, merchandise, etc.) when the team in the world's biggest city is winning.

Obviously so people like you would cite that as a reason that the lottery isn't rigged.

The lotto isn't rigged, it's done by a computer program and no longer with actual lotto balls so there is really nothing to see, that's why it is not televised.

computer system? Ha! even more reason its rigged. Come on man don't be so gullable. The very fact it has NEVER been shown live (ping pong balls or whatever) is enough for me.
