nba draft lottery

[kjw47]

Did you watch it? A man brings out the final ballots, the announcer says he is the only one who knows the final draft order. What kind of corrupt bs is that? The fans have the right to see the teams being picked for the order. This world gets more sickening by the second of how corrupt its gotten. The team with the lowest chance to get to #1 gets it--BS you rotten crooks.

Disclaimer, my TV was on mute. I glanced up occasionally. Did not notice DAL starting or final odds?

Yep. looks like they forced Luca to LA with Lebrawny. Big market. Now they want to reward DAL with Cooper Flag as compensation. They don’t want to lose that DAL $$$ money market. Future rival with up-coming HOU and San Antoinio with Wemby.

Looks like another fix, like when NY got #1 Ewing.

Cooper Flagg will not be an "impact" player, like Bird and Magic were. He will be a competent player and will not even lead the team in any meaningful statistic.

Is it accepted that he will be the first pick?

1.8% was Dallas odds.

There are some who have made comparisons for other years. At times there are too many coincidences. Not to say it cannot happen, just the percentages of those less likely to get the top echelon picks happen more often. People watching basketball on TV has dropped ratings wise. Going to games seems healthy for most teams. Sports has gotten expensive though.

If the picks were on the up and up they would be shown to the public.

He graduated HS a year early and was the best player in college basketball when he should have been playing his senior year. Hes going #1 and will likely be a generational type player.

There was talk of Dallas leaving for Las Vegas, there is also talk of the NBA wanting them to stay in Dallas with giving them Cooper Flagg, when you reach for the envelope and one of the envelopes is partially frozen....

cooper flag will be twice the attractent Luca was

Ive never believed in conspiracy theories, always believed LHO acted alone. But this draft was so abysmal it makes me wonder if LHO had help

 

[MarathonMike]

cooper flag will be twice the attractent Luca was

That's a really high bar. But as he fills out (he's 18!!) and hopefully stays free of major injury free he will certainly be a more balanced player on offense and defense than Luca.

Thank You John Wooden.

I love baseball, basketball, football, and hockey, but why anyone watches these boring drafts is beyond me. They try to make it some big event with contrived nonsense.

Dallas is a huge metropolis. I read several times that its stadium was top shelf. This was a decade or so ago. Mark Cuban owned the team. For them to leave does not make sense.
