The #1 pick will go to the team that the NBA thinks needs help drawing fans to their arena.

Does the league give the Lakers the #1 pick knowing it will end up in New Orleans for Anthony Davis which would help fill seats?

I just know that I hate this guy's face.

And if the Knicks don't win the lottery, I might throw my chair at the TV.

Going to stick to my prediction that Chicago will win the lottery tomorrow night. Zion in Chicago and KD/Sidekick in NY will boost East Coast ratings.

I don't think perry/mills would trade down if they get 2 or 3 pick but they should. I know everyone is going to say I am crazy and he is getting hyped to much because of his tournament run but I think this kid will be special.


Im hoping for hunter or cam at 4/5 as far as wings go

4th pick is the worst pick for us to land tbh. 5th is lower salary scale and it doesn't basically force us into Culver. Not that I don't like Culver (cuz I do). But the 4th pick means you almost HAVE to take him there. 5th makes it more likely for you to take the options seriously on a guys like Darius, Reddish, or Hunter. 4th pick's salary scale likely means we have to decline Trier or cut Dotson.

Culver - Trier/Dotson is less ideal that Darius/Reddish/Hunter + Dotson and/or Trier.

Our first big moment of the summer has just about arrived. Time to move this into the lotto thread.

New thread with our known pick to follow.

Pray for Zion.
