The 5/19/2015 draft lottery

[manl_lui]

Minnesota will win, select Towns or Okafor and years later everyone will wonder why they didn't take Justise Winsow or D'Angelo Russell.

actually if Minny win, if they draft nicely to pair with Wiggins and Lavine, hopefully this will be an up and coming franchise

I would prefer if the Knicks and Sixers were not in the top 3. Other than that I don't have much of a preference.

Also, I thought this was interesting.

I'm rooting for the Lakers to lose their pick, but I think that would require two teams leapfrogging them into the Top 3.

Hey, the lottery owes us one for all the times it has screwed us.  Actually, it owes us more than one, but this is a good start.

Yes this would be awesome. They did a pretty good job of tanking so I doubt this happens thou.

maybe the name of the thread should now be changed to today's draft lottery

If the Lakers lose their pick it will go to a division opponent. Honestly I'd rather the Lakers got the top pick than the Sixers or Knicks.

LA still has Kobe and they don't need #1.

Minny will get 3 at the worst but they have a solid building block already.

Philly is a joke. The lottery will know to pass on giving them # despite being so bad each year.

It's 1985 again! New York needs a star! Brooklyn is on its last breath and we need to pump so life back into MSG. Sadly unless that #1 pick is the next LeBron or KD he can't help that franchise.

Same. I'd laugh for a day if they lost a top 4 pick so easily but I don't like Philly having 4-5 or 5-6.

Minnesota with Wiggins/Towns or Wiggins/Okafor would be a fun core to watch.

#1 pick will go, somehow, to the Cavs.

[sofutomygaha]

If I did believe in conspiracy theories, I would not expect the 76ers to get the top pick.

[Evantime34]

Minnesota with Wiggins/Towns or Wiggins/Okafor would be a fun core to watch.

It would also be a core that might be good enough to improve Minnesota's win total to the point that we could receive our first round pick.

Personally, I want as much talent as possible to go to the west, leaving an easier path for us.

I was hoping that whoever they get this year when added to Wiggins, Pek, Rubio, Shabazz and Lavine would be enough to move that team's record up far enough to lose the protection on that pick next year.

Totally rooting for 'sota to get the first pick.
With it I hope the pick towns.
What an awesome young core.
Great front court pairing of towns and Dieng.
KG would finally have some real talent to mentor.

If OKC gets a top 3 pick and takes Russell we might as well give up.

Westbrook/[Waiters]
Russell/Roberson/Waiters
Durant/Morrow
Ibaka/McGary
Kanter/Adams/Collison
