You only win the lottery if you have luck. Sure getting the highest pick ensures the highest odds of winning the lottery but eventually you need lady luck to fall your way for you to win. This season I think the Celtics are going to have luck. Doesn't matter if they finish anywhere from the top pick all the way down to the 7th pick. Luck will be on their side and the Celtics will land in the top 3 of the lottery.
