The 2011 NBA Draft Lottery Thread, May 17th, 8:30 EST

Damn it. I only loved two players in this draft. At least the Jazz are guaranteed a shot at my 2nd tier (Kanter, Biyombo, Knight).

Well we got the third pick we were owed, its great but it sucks knowing we were close. At least we didn't trade the #1 overall pick for nothing like the Clips! Clipper curse!

Can you imagine if the Clippers got Kyrie Irving and Blake Griffin?

All of that lost, just to get rid of Baron Davis? Brilliant.
 
Who do you think Cleveland takes? If they take Derrick Williams then I could see the T-Wolves take Kanter especially if Rubio is coming over this year.

Welcome to the Utah Jazz Enes Kanter...

I don't know about that. If Cleveland take Irving (as expected), the Timberwolves would be left with Williams. I don't know if they would want to take him, beings that they already have Michael Beasley and Wesley Johnson at Small Forward and Kevin Love at PF. I could see them taking Enes Kanter to fit their need at Center. I'm feelin' that we just landed Derrick Williams! Holy crap! I called it!
 
Cleveland is taking Irving. It's a 100% guarantee. The question is what Minnesota will do with the 2nd pick. They have Beasley and Johnson that play the same position as Williams. I could see them taking Kanter.

Cavs traded Mo Williams for Baron Davis AND the #1 pick in the draft...

Congrats Clippers. You really are that stupid.

Wow. This is really how Cleveland got that pick? Baron for Mo seems like a pretty even pick straight across. Why did LA want to get rid of Baron so badly? What an epic error!

That would be interesting. So he takes AK's spot? Or would that mean we need to trade someone?

Traded DWill to draft the other DWill...

I like this lineup > Harris-Hayward-Williams-Favors-Jefferson
 
The more I think about it the more I realize how little Minnesota needs Irving or Williams especially, seeing as they have Johnson, Rubio and Beasley all playing those positions/all top tier projects in those respective positions as well. No matter what Cleveland picks, I feel like we will get the latter for sure. My God what a lucky break. I mean pick one or two would be nice, but I was seriously expecting a lot, LOT worse.
