Ping Pong Balls Today (Draft Lottery)

Post #1 » by **ICMTM** » Tue May 21, 2013 5:15 pm

This is why the Kings will win the Draft Lottery

1. We've been in it so many times without winning. We're like the old lady at the slot machine saying this is going to be the pull!
2. The last time we won the lottery it was in a weak draft. We wouldn't be so lucky to win it when a player like Kevin Durant is in it.
3. We have a positive vibe going around this team. We haven't had that since Kevin Martin's buzzer beater against the Spurs.
4. We can't be Maloofed! The Maloofs are gone.

The league is fixed won't fit.

I heard Smart got selected to be our team rep at the draft lotto? What a downer...

5. Stern's backing of keeping the Kings in Sacramento was only part of his early retirement. Not many people can retire at 70 going out with an alley-oop.

Major downer. Something tells me if Mayor KJ was there our odds would have been higher..

My prediction is 2-3 pick

We always move down a couple of spots too! Very rarely to we stick to the same spot we were projected at, let alone move up to the top 3....I'm not going to be greedy here and hope for the top pick....im just praying we can crack the top 3 for once!

Just let us get into the top three!

Screw top 3. I want number 1. I want to see Nerlens Noel in a Kings uniform next year.

Although I guess it's possible he isn't #1 or we could trade up.

Good luck Kings fans. For some reason the Warriors and Kings have been screwed out of the top pick over and over again

Hope you guys get #1!!!!!!!!!!

What's the worst pick we can get? 8? 9? I think we'll get 7 and some team from outside the top 10 will get into the top 3. Watch.

bibby1023 · Post #12 » by **bibby1023** » Tue May 21, 2013 10:35 pm

there's a 1 percent chance we get 9

RIPskaterdude · Post #13 » by **RIPskaterdude** » Tue May 21, 2013 10:37 pm

And there was a 25% chance we'd get Blake Griffin and how did that turn out?

But really, I'm just happy the team is in Sacramento. I still think we stay at 6 or go to 7, but hopefully we get top 3. I want Otto on this team.

21.5% chance we jumped to top 3.....odds are definitely against us.

Well the ESPN crew seems to be onboard with us getting the #1 pick.

That should be the last time we ever hear "head coach of the Sacramento Kings" and Keith Smart in the same sentence!
