Couldn't you just use this...
http://www.realgm.com/src_lottosim.php
Worst Record matched up with Nets
Second Worst Record matched up with TWolves
etc, etc.

Then simulate once, and cross reference to see who go what...

[Mascot]

Ties were determined by drawing names out of a hat. The wife did that for me. There were several 3 way ties.

PHI/ATL/GS
NY/IND/DET
MIA/BOS/POR

and two way ties

LAL/CLE
DEN/SAC




EDIT: included highest and lowest rankings.

As you can see there is a lot of variation when doing rankings like this. I may change how the finals are done. And make it a head to head competition of some sort.

I'm quite shocked at the bolded ones, especially LAC (no offense intended to the GM's involved). The rest seem pretty simlar to how I would rank them.

Also disappointed I didn't make the playoffs, I'd at least have thought having 4 starters on my roster who were in last seasons finals might at least challenge for a playoff spot!!

[Teddy KGB]

9th pick up for the grabs for a PG or C... can be packaged with Danilo Gallinari

[Teddy KGB]

the DEN pick is not transferred as it is lotto protected

[Mascot]

yes, i know. Draft order is in Original post now.

[poopdamoop]

Milwaukee gets the NOH 2nd if it's not traded to NJ

[deNIEd]

I ran the sim 13 times

What's the point in running the sim 13 times.

I'm fine with the results and all, but running the sim 13 times seems pointless. If you run it 13 times, odds will take over and give the worst team the 1st pick, 2nd worst team the 2nd pick, etc. That's why its only ran once, so anything can happen. Running it 13 times basically takes away the entire purpose of the lottery system

it was to avoid bias. I could just click sim until i got a team i wanted the first pick. This way it was not bias by me, not that it would have been anyways, but it saves me the trouble of say phoenix getting the first pick on the sim and everyone complaining that I should have did it multiple times.

[Mascot]

Im also thinking that Detroit owns his own first rounder even though he dosent have it listed, its not listed in any of his trades. If someone dosen't soon claim it, its going back to him.

[LeQuitterNotMVP]

Take careful notice, LeBron... the Cavs are tied for the best team in the league...

[pja123]

When is this starting again?

[Mascot]

Start picking guys!

[roc]

I traded/ditched mine so am now on vacation.

[Coxy]

So, whats happening then? When does Detroit pick and how?

[penbeast0]

giving people 2 more hours. That's the deadline.

Then me and the wife get to do the lottery with names out of a hat. yay!

Your wife works with you on fantasy sports stuff? I have to keep a safety screen up with porn when I work on these so mine doesn't go off on me
