Boston 2, Memphis 4.
23 hours, 23 minutes, 23 seconds until the maybe rigged lottery.
Not a lot of lotto enthusiasm around here? People still bitter that the Celtics didn't pick Josh Jackson?
Did three lottery simulations, Philadelphia got first pick twice. Not a good look. Mathematically close to impossible. The 76ers, they would use the top pick on someone injured, like J Porter. Crazy people there, like the coach. He calls a timeout, and draws up three plays, all of which require standing around for 25 seconds and then passing the ball.
The Knicks? They would ruin Zion like they ruined Kristaps. You can take the boy out of Latvia but, I can't remember how the rest of that goes. He was walking around Latvia and some Russians attacked him because they were disappointed the Knicks traded him? Makes Riga sound like an upmarket version of Toronto.
For the Celtics, West is best for the top picks. But not Lakers. Suns, they can take a top 3 pick. New Orleans, those here who think trading the entire team for Anthony Davis may be cheering against it, but the Pelicans getting a top 3 pick isn't bad. Memphis at 4 is swell, as they might just get the player they would have at 8, and the Celtics get the fun of watching their pick next season.
Ideal lotto?
1 New Orleans
2 Boston
3 Phoenix
4 Memphis
5 New York
Worst result?
1 76ers, 2 Lakers, 3 Knicks, 4 Miami, 5 Cleveland
Laugh at those who say, "the hidden draft lottery can't be rigged, they have accountants watching over it." If there is one group of fraudulent people, it's accountants.
I'd like to speak to Barry Prophet, please.
- I'm sorry he's out of town.
Out of town?
- Yes, he went to South America.
South America?
South America?
I'll call back, thank you. He went to South America!
Who goes to South America?
- People go to South America.
Yeah, and they come back with things taped to their large intestine.
Yikes.
32 second shot clock.
That's strange.
Shifty McFraudy
Rigged.
Losers. Didn't win anything.
Worth more than four first rounders?
