So here's the final order:

1. Wizards
2. Sixers
3. Nets
4. Wolves
5. Kings
6. Warriors
7. Pistons
8. Clippers
9. Jazz
10. Pacers
11. Hornets
12. Grizzlies
13. Raptors
14. Rockets

I can see the Warriors, Wolves and Kings trading down.

Well, six years later we finally know what pick we got. And color me unimpressed. Oh well, they better figure out a way to get some length/size through other means now.

The warriors may be interested in that #9 pick along with AK. I don't know but they seem crazy enough.

Wait a minute. You are unimpressed for a trade made six years ago for a no name?

I guess it's good we didn't move down....

So funny...Washington doesn't really need a PG with Gilbert, Philly doesn't need a wing with Young/Iggy and New Jersey doesn't need Favors/Cousins with Lopez. Go figure.

Looking back on the season, what really burns me is that until a late surge by the Knicks and tanking by the other teams they were right there with Philly and Washington.

KOC cant do anything right. He isnt even lucky LOL. Jazz need to pick best player available regardless of position.
Top 4 seed in the West!!! Guaranteed!!!

I couldnt disagree with you more. If Washington can find a way to terminate Arenas contract they would love to take Wall and they definitely are rebuilding and Arenas isnt in those plans. Philly has been rumored to want to dump AI and even if they dont they could use a PF/C to pair with Speights. New Jersey would be absolutely thrilled to pair one of Cousins or Favors with Lopez.

iggy is out of philly IMO. Maybe we can use that one(and only) connection we have in the league and trade for him.

- Wizards take Wall for sure
- Turner go to the Sixers
- Favors will play along Lopez in a top tier 4/5 for years to come

A free 9th pick. Not a bad day's work. It would have been nice to move up but not very realistic. I am glad that it didn't slide into the 10-12 range.

I kind of feel happy for the wizards with the whole Arenas debacle.

What's up Cole Aldrich? If he's available, he's ours.

Considering the run New York WAS putting together and how much better they will be next year, I would say the #9 pick is an amazing outcome. Sure we could have won the lottery, but I'm not going to complain.

Plus, I'm glad to see a team NOT get rewarded for tanking. Make that 2 teams, minnesota... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well guys, I told you I would come back after the lottery was done. Since the main thread was locked I decided to post in here. After the Knicks lost to the Kings (when it became clear we were not a playoff team) I took a break from realgm. Posted a bit after the T-Mac deal and came back on for the playoffs.

So it ends up at #9. Not to bad. You guys have an unusual shot to add top 10 pick to a playoff team, so take advantage of it. Have fun with the draft, it is one of my favorite parts of the NBA calender. This year, I'll have to settle for free agency ;)

We'll see how workouts go, but I really think he's the best fit for the Jazz and I think they'll trade up if necessary to get him.

I'll take a free top 10 pick.

At least we didn't move down, I am super stoked for this pick.

What bothers me the most is that Philly and Washington should have been much better than they were. I would say they are two of the most undeserving teams in the lotto.
