Let's use this thread to talk about tonight's ping pong balls and the immediate aftermath.

I think I'm making the decision not to record this and not to watch it live. I think I'm just gonna go for a walk and eat dinner and check in on the results late night. Of course I say that and I'll probably still be looking at my phone

My oh my….come on league….we are due.

I’ve never felt this nervous before a lottery before. Don’t even know why. We know this won’t end well

My gut says Brooklyn is winning the lottery. I just hope the Hornets land in the top 4 and Edgecombe falls to us there.

Weirdly my give a **** meter as an all time low. This franchise has completely broken me as a fan. My expectations for the next five years of this franchise could not be any lower. It has nothing to do with the current front office or the current owners. it's just the way it is.

This wait is killing me. I’m not sure I’ve been this invested in the lottery before. We just went through 3 of the worst seasons this franchise has ever seen after finally making it to the point where we looked like we were a team on the rise.

I wish the league could appreciate how much your statement means, cause I know your level of devotion and time invested in this team. I was similarly discouraged and dropped back for a while here a few years ago, but loyalty and the amazing Melo pulled me back in. The mess of injuries and disappointing results since haven’t helped….I’m hanging in there….but more disaster could easily be a tipping point.

Put the pieces together

Flagg went to school at Duke, Charlotte is just a few hours away from Duke. Flagg can become a Carolina legend. All his roots are planted in the state of Carolina.

We’re winning the lottery

Elton brand went to Duke, Kyrie Irving went to Duke, Jason Tatum went to Duke, Zion Williamson went to Duke... ja Play the high school ball in North Carolina. Brandon Ingram it's from North Carolina. Chris Paul went to Wake Forest. None of it matters.

That's what I'll do. Watching live does nothing for me, just let me know where we're picking.

Negative vibes

New ownership it's our time. Believe change is coming starting tonight.

Image just transmitted and received from the sports Multiverse. Hugo looks really different, but I like the result:

We honestly deserve this. We need this.

It feels so pivotal. To respond to fatlever’s comment from earlier I’ve never in my life felt so apathetic about this team. There’s a 14% chance my love for them catches a spark again tonight. There’s an 86% chance my apathy only grows. It sucks

My anxiety logically shouldn't be as high as it is right now.

I'll be watching every pick as they come in, praying no one moves up (especially not San Antonio or Philly).

Kendrick Perkins just said Mitch Johnson is going to be an amazing coach so put your life savings on him getting sacked next season.

legts go guys. Flagg would change the trajectory of this franchise right away. if wen dont get 1 or 2 im locked in on edgecome. hes got enough size and is a jaw dropping athlete with an improving shot and good passing skills. hes one hell of a connector.
