Just like the title says, the NBA Draft Lottery will be on TV Wednesday, May 26th at 7:00 PM eastern time on ESPN. Don't miss it. I'm going to leave this as a sticky thread until May 26th so people don't forgot.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TMac_OwNz:</div><div class="quote_post">Orlando gets 1st </div> Hope Chicago does. They really need help in their team. You guys already got McGrady so expect them to be good next year. Crossing my fingers. Good luck to all the teams.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TMac_OwNz:</div><div class="quote_post">Orlando gets 1st </div> They've got the most chance of getting 1st (25%), but they don't have the fisrt pick yet. We'll find out who gets the #1 pick on Wednesday May 26. Utah have a chance this year, even if it is a 0.5% chance .
I hope the blazers can get a higher pick than the 13th, maybe they can trade the picks up to 3 or 5 to get Shaun Livigton.
Ping Pong Ball Percentages 1. Orlando 21-61 25.0% 2. Chicago 23-59 20.0% 3. Washington 25-57 15.7% 4. Charlotte -- Guranteed 5. L.A. Clippers 28-54 10.5% 6. Atlanta 28-54 10.4% 7. Phoenix 29-53 6.4% 8. Toronto 33-49 3.7% 9. Philadelphia 33-49 3.6% 10. Cleveland 35-47 1.8% 11. Golden State 37-45 0.9% 12. Seattle 37-45 0.9% 13. Portland 41-41 0.6% 14. Utah 42-40 0.5%
If Atlanta gets it, that would be extremely strange/suspicious. LeBron, from Ohio, goes to Cleveland Maybe....Dwight Howard, from Atlanta, would probably go to Atlanta.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Akron is in the state of Ohio, just like Cleveland is in Ohio.</div> Well, originally I had "LeBron, from Cleveland, goes to Cleveland", but I changed it to Ohio. It was my mistake, Trip corrected me.
Since the Grizzlies aren't in it this year, I'll be rooting for Utah, Portland, Seattle, and Golden State. I'd love to see the West get even stronger, and it's real rare for a team with so little chances to get such a high pick. Either way it's a lottery, so it's all about chance. And those four teams all will have ping-pong balls in there, so they have a good chance.
How bout some people post their predictions: 1. Orlando 2. Washington 3. Chicago 4. Charlotte -- Guranteed 5. Atlanta 6. L.A. Clippers 7. Phoenix 8. Philadelphia 9. Toronto 10. Golden State 11. Cleveland 12. Seattle 13. Portland 14. Utah
Here my my predictions, Im going out on the limb for a few but its only my prediction. 1. Chicago 2. Orlando 3. Atlanta 4. Charlotte -- Guranteed 5. Washington 6. L.A. Clippers 7. Toronto 8. Pheonix 9. Philadelphia 10. Golden State 11. Seattle 12. Cleveland 13. Portland 14. Utah
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">1. Chicago</div> Helz no! If I'm going to pull for a team that's all but guaranteed to screw up the #1 pick, I'm rooting for the Clipjoint, not the baby bulls!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting hagrid:</div><div class="quote_post">Helz no! If I'm going to pull for a team that's all but guaranteed to screw up the #1 pick, I'm rooting for the Clipjoint, not the baby bulls! </div> Good Point . I think the Bulls would choose to trade the 1st pick. They would trade it to orlando for the second pick and take howard. Thats just my $00.02 though.
Is it 7:00 PM or 7:30. I saw on a commercial last night 7:30, and NBA.com has it at 8:00 Eastern See:
^Its 8pm eastern. I'm going to go out on a limb with this. 1. Philly 2. Orlando 3. LA Clips 4. Charlotte (of course.) 5. Atlanta 6. Chicago 7. Washington 8. Toronto 9. Golden State 10. Clevland 11. Utah 12. Portland 13. Seattle 14. Phoenix
