Last year:
"Webb what was your number with the Kings?"
" Come on man, it was four DUH! haha"
In the Draft:
"Fourth pick goes to..."
"lol I get it"
THIS YEAR:
"So Evans is representing the Kings this year, hmmm don't think I can do anything with that."
hmmm... Evans, picked 4th... Webber...wore number 4...
"Evans... 4th pick...Webber...number 4...8... Evans,Webber...8... number is the key...but to what..."
"GENIUS"
In the Draft:
"5th pick goes to..."
"lol I get it"

I don't know if its ever a good idea to send a guy who wears #13 to something that requires luck.

That would be funny if it wasn't....so....*whimpers*
Reke’d because…well it’s Reke.

Great pictures
I was going to say that people should stop complaining about it and accept that it’s a lottery, but the way you represented your story was pretty nice. Props to that

Why did the warriors being drawn catapult wizards and sixers to top 3 picks? I don’t get it

Because Warriors had a better chance than both wiz and sixers...

Ok
So why couldn’t top 3 be kings nets and wolves, all three teams better than the warriors? Doesn’t make any sense to me.

Let me explain
Here’s the draft order based on the odds:
NJ
Minny
Sac
Washington
Golden State
Philly
Detroit
LA
Utah
New Orleans
Indy
Memphis
Toronto
Houston
There are 14 numbered ping pong balls. Each team gets a certain number of combinations based on their record. Jersey’s record was the worst, so they have the most combos. For the lottery, only the first three picks are chosen. After that, picks 4-14 are based on the teams’ records. That’s how the Kings got the 4th pick last year. They had the worst record, but 3 teams were picked ahead of them, giving them the 4th picl. Starting with the 14th pick and going through the 7th, Houston through Detroit were called in record order. The next pick, going in order, would have been Philadelphia. But when they announced that the 6th pick was going to Golden State that meant that Philly was pushed into the top 3. The next pick after Golden State should have been Washington. When it went to the Kings, it was known that Washington jumped into the top 3 as well. When Minny was the 4th pick we knew that NJ was in the top 3 as well.

I always knew David Stern was a Dan Brown fan...
If you want to be vulgar and funny at the same time, you must also be relentlessly preachy!
Fuck David Stern

I concur.
The Sacramento Convergence concept offers Sacramento, the Central Valley, and the State a solution to feasibly construct a new multi-use Entertainment and Sports Complex.
YOu'd fuck David Stern?
Does Mrs JJham know this?

I definitely would pook, if that meant The Kings get a top 3 pick
It’s called sacrificing for “the team”

And here I thought
you were gonna put “sacrificing” in quotes.

I can't speak for Apoet
but that’s what I summed up. I think it’s supposed to be kinda silly, like “this is how David Stern’s brain works”.
put me in, Coach
off topic
but I really liked the way they had the expected order up and announced the picks. Made it obvious when a change in expected order occurred. Very well done.

Yea that was handy..
Even though they all already knew..

No they didn't Chen.
They didn’t know until it was announced either. Only the people sequestered in the room knew.

Aww now I’m sad :(
"It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns. Also he got a race car. Is any of this getting through to you?"
