BTW, what are the odds NO team moves up or down from their projected spot?


Zero. Or thereabouts.

0.0002739898

That's about 3 hundredths of a percent.


wow... so in the lotto we always expect one of the top5 (record wise) will drop out?

I think that his math means zero movement, meaning the order doesn't change at all. Not necessarily that a team drops out of the top 3 (Correct me if I am wrong)

Ah... I think im at fault here with my wording. I meant that all lotto teams 1-14?? Say with HOU being 1 and CHI being 14th worst... That will still be the same order in picking...

I know we're tanking hard but there is no doubt that OKC is just abusing the system right now. Half the playing team went undrafted and 25% of them were second round picks. No lotto picks and no one that Charles Barkley could identify.

Cleveland just sat down Sexton, Nance, Dellavedova, and Prince for the season.

Good job Celtics! Thank you Evan, lol.

With that OKC win, I won't feel worried when we beat the Cavaliers tomorrow. Still have some breathing room.

I've been more worried about OKC than Minnesota or Detroit.

Oklahoma City's 14 game losing streak is officially over.

They have earned win No. 21, which moves them THREE ahead of the Orlando Magic.

Huge.

Return to Orlando Magic
