We are gonna win the lottery (official thread)

[Jazz4ever]

Here's the last time each team had the #1 overall pick:

Philadelphia - 1996
LA Lakers - 1982
Boston - 1950
Phoenix - Never
Minnesota - 2015
New Orleans - 2012
Denver - Never
Sacramento - 1989
Toronto - 2006
Milwaukee - 2005
Orlando - 2004
Utah - Never
Phoenix - Never
Chicago - 2008

So basically the Jazz or the Suns deserve to win.

You know what Clint Eastwood says about deserve.

I hope people aren't getting their hopes up high about winning the lottery but what would make this draft even worse is if the Lakers, T-wolves, New Orleans or Nuggets get the Number #1 pick especially the T-Wolves. If the T-Wolves got Simmons, Towns, Wiggins, LaVine and Rubio that would be a scary team to compete against.

I have inside info (some of you could figure out how) that the Sixers get the 1st pick.

So try this story: Silver rode into to town to save the NBA by assuming control of the Philly franchise. First order of business is to get a guy inside, so the team hires Jerry Collangello. Then Silver tells Philly ownership to sack Hinkie, and they must trade away their next #1 pick for a veteran. Meanwhile Bryan Collangello is hired and starts talking about the importance of veterans. Tonight Philly will win the lottery, but trade the pick to Clippers for Blake Griffin and Paul Pierce. Pierce retires, and Blake plays one season in Philly before opting out of his contract and signing with Dallas.

We need to win one of these damn things at some point. Only real, honest chance we have of becoming a contender.

I'd prefer the Lakers to get the 3rd pick and pick a guy who doesn't pan out and for them to therefore lose their 1st next season when the draft is loaded.

I want the 2nd pick so I can rub it in my student's faces who talk **** about the Jazz.
