I talked about my bad luck in another thread, didn't know about the flip today, and we won. I need to stay away from the Jazz on big days.

The draft lottery takes place on May 31st. Stay away from here until June.

Deal?

I'll give you my rarely used whopping 30 whatever rep power if you stay away on May 20th.

Why would you tell him the real date? Make up a fake one do that even if he is tempted that it is the wrong day.

You'll want me back when we star making playoff runs!

So we can get swept in the 1st round? Been there, done that. Isn't there a long thread that needs your posting?

I read some miscalculated odds around, here are the correct ones:

33.7 percent chance of winning a top-three pick.
43.6 percent top four.
80.9 percent top five.

@chadfordinsider: NBA just did tiebreakers for draft. Utah (25-57) won a tiebreaker with Boston.

This is the first time Jazz won the the tie breaker in decades. This is huge for the Jazz - this one spot may be a difference between a superstar and just a good player. For once the fortune has smiled upon us... for now.

According to Locke on Twitter...Biggest impact of @utahjazz winning tiebreaker with @celtics - Jazz chance of being 6th, 7th or 8th in draft is now 17% rather than 44%.

That's part of, and it is a pretty huge part as well. But there is another element too. Let's say top 3 teams end up with top 3 picks. Then we get #4 pick instead of 5, which is pretty significant. Locke of course did not account for that, but we have a much better chance at being top 4 than Boston as a result also. All and all, this is very good for us.
