Coverage of the NBA Draft Lottery begins at 5:00 PM PST on ESPN. Use this thread for discussion throughout and immediate reaction after.

Again for reference's sake, this is the order we want to hear leading up to the Kings slot: Houston, Phoenix, Milwaukee, Portland, New Orleans, Detroit, Toronto, Golden State, and Portland. If that order stays and the Kings are NOT the next team announced, they have jumped up. If that order deviates, it's very probable the Kings dropped. Again.

Remember the Kings Fan Creed and you won't be disappointed: Hope for the best, expect the worst.
