2018 NBA Draft Lottery thread - 4:30pm MST / 7:30pm EDT

Well, 4:30 they will start with a show and waste our time for about 50 minutes before they unveil the results.

But I suppose the thread title shouldn't mention mountain daylight time since Arizona is is on mountain standard time which is pacific daylight time.

I went to a timezone converter because I keep losing track of when Mountain time is 2 hour or 3 hours behind East Coast. It says 2 hours so I figure that'd make it easier for Arizonians. Guess I was wrong.

Well Mountain Standard time is always 2 hours behind Eastern Standard time and Mountain Daylight time 2 hours behind Eastern Daylight time.

Arizona doesn't go on daylight time so it stays on Mountain Standard Time, so when the rest of the country switches to daylight savings time, most of Arizona falls three hours behind the east coast and is the same time as the west coast, which is Pacific Daylight time which equals Mountain Standard time.

I hope that makes sense.

I so confused. When i used to create game threads with both times. Now I'm thinking I was confusing everyone.

Well most of the season is before daylight savings time starts, so Phx is 2 hours behind eastern...now it's 3. I'm on Central time so much of the season Phoenix home games started at 8 for me...but after DST kicked in they didn't start until 9.

2nd pick is the safest for suns.

If its 1st pick we will be debating between Ayton and Doncic for weeks. If its 3 or 4 we will be debating the other guys, or trading it for a star.

The only sure thing is #2 Doncic, unless someone take him first, then we get Ayton. All good either way.

I'm one of the rare ones who wants Young after the first 2 picks. So I'd be thrilled if suns drafted him with 4.

I don't think your view of wanting Young 3rd is that rare considering the poll results in the draft thread. I agree. I'd be really happy with 2.

Probably because it was registering your And1 and you clicked it a second time and it unregistered it and shows 0. It happens to me sometime. Probably when the site is running slow. It seemed to be running slow about 5 minutes ago.

The possibilities for Ainge would be unthinkable.

Hopefully trade with us.

Us: 4 + 16 for 2.

Them: 4 for Leonard.
