He tweeted out about an hour ago that the sixers won the lottery before deleting it... well, so much for that.

Honestly I don't think he knew anything beforehand.

I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Um I think only owners know 30 minutes before they show it on tv.

The lottery happens only about an hour before they reveal the results, it's way too early for him to actually know

It seems like it was probably a draft that got posted accidentally

fake.  They haven't had the drawing yet and when they do, nobody in the room has access to the outside world.

  • Be the posts you wish to see in the world.
The actual lotto (not the TV showing) hasn't happened yet, so no, he doesn't know.

Speculation is he saw a tweet by Embiid saying "#1/#4 trust the process", which is describing Philly's best-case scenario but could be read as him stating the actual results.

Hopefully it was false haha, if the sixers dont end up winning he's gonna have some explaining to do. But yeah, just saw this and wanted to get other opinions on it because I didn't know when the actual drawing happens.

Yeah, the drawing doesn't even happen until shortly after 7 and everyone is sequestered.

The question is why???

So then we can see their faces and guess the answer

It should be done on the spot

They remain sequestered until the drawing is made public.

I'd be fine with the Sixers getting 1 and 4... knock the Lakers out which would give us a great chance at 2

The people who see the actual drawing (behind the scenes) find out before the show (they literally watch the balls get drawn), the people that are out there for the show (in our case, IT) don't know until the envelopes are opened
