Lottery Discussion Thread

Doesn't look there's one of these, so here it is!

Let's get the #1!

 

[Glenn]

Ha! I started one in Personnel Moves. Anyway I am so damn nervous it's silly. It's only a game, right? Right????

 

[Anthony1]

Is there some place to watch this online?

I'm listening on the radio...

 

[Capt. Factorial]

This is a no-lose scenario. Either we get a top pick, or Adrienne Maloof is sad.

It appears to be available at espn.go.com/nba but you might need access to ESPN3.

 

[Megalodon]

Its amazing how much this can affect the Kings. Specifically Sacramento

 

[rainmaker]

Adrienne Maloof representing us at the lottery, or USA v Brazil. Tough decision. Hope I'm not missing the start of the match only to see Adrienne screech as we get the 7th pick.

Top 3 and I'm extremely happy.

Top 2 and I'm ecstatic.

1st and I'm running through the neighborhood naked.

 

[VF21]

I wish I could mute the video and just listen ...

 

[rekehavoc73186]

damn im nervous

 

[Dime Dropper]

Lets go!

Prepare for the worst!

 

[rainmaker]

Well hello, Irina.

 

[Ignited]

Knowing our luck, we're gonna end up with the 5th or 6th pick -_-

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Knowing our luck, we're gonna end up with the 5th or 6th pick -_-

Knowing our luck, that would be a relief.

 

[rekehavoc73186]

how do the nets have a 7.5% chance and we have 7.6% chance?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

#5.

 

[Megalodon]

lol

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Hey, at least we didn't go down!

 

[VF21]

Well, it could have been worse...

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Well, that was anticlimactic.

 

[Vlade4GM]

blah

 

[Dime Dropper]

When nobody behind us moved up, I really thought we would. Disappointing, but could be worse.

 

[Uncia03]

I would have loved to win, but at least we didn't get bumped to a worse spot like we've seen the last few years.

With the 5th pick....we could end up doing anything with it, so let the discussions begin.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I like Harrison Barnes. That's OK with me.

 

[rainmaker]

5 is still high enough it should be attractive to others in a package.

Unfortunately it's not high enough for us to get excited about using it ourselves, unless you want to get younger and bring on a project. Although maybe Drummond is there at 5, but there are a lot of "ifs" with him.

 

[Section 101]

Rigged !!!!!

 

[Glenn]

Davis, MKG, Barnes, Drummond, Beal, Robinson and maybe some one else. Hard to go wrong except with that Drummond guy.

 

[ElRey]

5th pick, at least we didn't slide this year! that's an improvement for us.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Lets get on those phones. This is a weird spot for us.

Right in the Beal/Robinson range. I'd look to trade down or out all together.

 

[UK_King]

As i predicted months ago, New Orleans wins it. What a 'great story!'

WOW.

As for our pick im actually stunned we managed to stay at 5 but it's hardly what you'd call "exciting"

 

[rainmaker]

Stern: Will you give us $350M for a Hornets team without CP3?

Potential buyer: F no.

Stern: Well, how about if we include this guy named Anthony Davis, afterall, we own the team and know what's best.

Potential buyer: Well, I don't think I'm a potential buyer anymore. Where do I sign?

Few months later.......Adam Silver- "the #1 overall picks goes to the NOH.
