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.
i know theres another thread
but i want this one to start a petition
i know theres websites out there where you can start one
anyone have any free time to do it??
the lottery has f*cked us over twice in the last decade
this thing has to be stopped
The lottery makes no sense. There's no justice to it...
But it'll never end. Like so many things in society, once an incredibly stupid idea becomes implemented, accepted and ingrained, it will persevere in the face of all logic and reason.
Where would the Celtics have finished with a healthy Pierce ? Certainly not 2nd worst.
I don't disagree - I'm just saying that it's not legit to say "it's not fair". Absolute fairness, if you want the worst teams to get the best picks, wouldn't be based solely on record due to injuries and tanking.true...but he WAS hurt
would the spurs have gotten the third worst record (dont forget the grizz finished with the worst not the c's that yr, but couldnt get it cuz they were only in their second yr in existence) if david robinson wasnt hurt that yr way back when
Yes, they would. Either Boston or Chicago or maybe LA or Atlanta.the lottery obviously isnt going to prevent teams from tanking so it serves no purpose IMO. they could at least increase the odds for the bottom dwellers. It's ridiculous, but I don't think it's rigged. If it were don't you think they'd want the Celtics(big market team) to get the #1 pick?
