1. I don't think the NBA is rigged, at least not this transparently

2. I don't understand why this supposedly fullproof system isn't televised for the audience to see. Just makes no sense to hold it behind closed doors. The NBA gains nothing by doing it behind closed doors.

 

EDIT: Well I get why, since it is a really tedious process of tons of balls being drawn, but still. They have gotta do something since this shit is suspect as hell.

They should run an online feed or something, even though that's easy to manipulate.

C: Emeka Okafor

PF: Anthony Davis

SF: Trevor Ariza

SG: Eric Gordon

PG: Kendall Marshall

 

is that a playoff team next year?

 

Regardless, that is a very nice core to build around. Team is going to be very good if Gordon stays and his knees don't fail him.

 

That team has strong defensive potential, but Playoff team? probably not. Eric Gordon is often underrated, but he's also easily overrated if you forget that he's pretty undersized. He's great on both ends of the court and he's strong, but if the Hornets are a playoff team it'll be because of a top ten defense.

haha the Nets franchise is [expletive]ed for a few years at least, if D Will doesn't come back they are going to have to over pay brook just to pair him with brooks and now no pick. D Will better at least get signed and traded if they lose him.

 

Lol @ New Orleans getting the first pick.

 

Poor Charlotte, just missed, at least they get a nice pick.

If we are really that [expletive]ed then we will have no problem in the lottery next year.

That's the thing, you still have Brooks and Lopez, they should win enough games to keep from getting a top 5 pick..

Wouldn't say that but no idea what the lineup will look like. I assume that will be the downfall even if we are shitty, we won't try to tank.

Because they draw out the team that picks #1 first. That's not good TV, people want to be kept in suspense.
