personally i'm beginning to think it is rigged. how perfect was it for lebron to go to cleveland and resurrect a struggling franchise. The odds of Orlando getting the #1 years in a row(can't remember when and don't really care to look it up). but what better way to boost a new franchise.

i'm just bitter, but i wouldn't hold it past big business to shaft a winner. at least we have the pats.

I think Cleveland the year they got Lebron was the worst team in the league, 17 wins the previous season, but that draft was so stacked, even if they didn't get Lebron, they would have gotten Carmelo, Wade, Bosh or anybody else in the stacked 2003 draft.

Orlando in the years of their back to back the year when they got Shaq also had the worst record. It was the year later when they had a less than 1% chance of getting #1 they did, drafting Webber and shipping him to the Warriors for Penny Hardaway.

I hate the lottery so much, now more than ever. We should have gotten Durant, now who do we get, Brewer? Horford? Noah? Julian Wright? What a joke, meanwhile Oden and Durant are stuck in the NBA hotbeds of Seattle and Portland, where nobody will watch and us on the East Coast could care less.

you know what really grinds my gears about the draft is they say they don't want teams tanking for the #1 pick well most of the teams that are tanking already have terrible records and need the help the bottom 3 teams all usually suck equally

Tell me where to sign!

It is really suspicious that they won't do the actual drawing in front of anyone. What are they trying to hide?

OK, call me crazy, maybe I'm bitter, but hear me out:
Seattle and Portland both were considering moving due to declining fan bases. Atlanta could only keep their pick if it was in the top 3.
The 6 picks went, in order, Portland, Seattle, Atlanta, and then the worst three teams for 4 through 6 in order.

Conspiracy anyone? I hate how they don't show the ping pong balls for everyone to see. It's all in secret and works out perfectly for the NBA in terms of franchise-helping.

David Stern hates the Celtics. Remember when Reggie Lewis died, the NBA gave the Celtics zero relief, and also made the Celts keep Lewis' cap space on the team until his contract ran out?

Where would the Celtics have finished with a healthy Pierce ? Certainly not 2nd worst.

I've thought this over as well, and I guess the best legit answer would be that if they did it LIVE then they would have to announce the picks starting from 1 then to 2 then to 3 and so forth....the way they reveal the picks is the opposite order to create drama. Start from the lowest pick to the best pick.
