headhunter Posted May 12, 2025 Report Share Posted May 12, 2025 The draft lottery shows that. Mavs had a 1.8% chance of getting the #1 overall pick and got it, then gifted the Spurs the #2 pick for somebody to build with Wemby. They don't even hide it anymore titanruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzTitan Posted May 12, 2025 Report Share Posted May 12, 2025 Look, I don't usually engage in conspiracies, but this is 100% shamelessly rigged. headhunter 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Earl Posted May 13, 2025 Report Share Posted May 13, 2025 Pay back for gifting Doncic to the Lakers. Meanwhile the Wizards and Hornets will continue to suck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
abenjami Posted May 13, 2025 Report Share Posted May 13, 2025 What makes it obvious is that this is the 5th time in the last 18 years that a team with a 3% of less chance has won it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what the %'s were, but Cavs after Lebron left, Pelicans after AD left, it's getting kind of stupid. Would be interested to see a probability analysis of all the lottery outcomes together, I suspect it show some fuckery.

Grizz Posted May 13, 2025 Report Share Posted May 13, 2025 It's such an annoying result, and feels like one of the shittiest and most egotistically incompetent GM got rewarded for bad decision making. At the end of the day the rest of the draft outcome--I wonder if that #2 for the Spurs is now going to head to the Bucks in a package for Giannis.

The league promised the pick in order to get Doncic to LA. The GM did not make a bad decision if that's true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am commenting on the lottery in general. Nico Harrison has sounded like the biggest dumbass imaginable in every interview. I am sure he will find a way to botch this. A lot of noise that the #1 pick might go to the Bucks for Giannis. Giannis, AD and Kyrie is certainly a Big 3--age and injuries make me think of the Kawhi Clippers--would they ever have all three at the same time for a post season run?

scine09 Posted May 13, 2025 Report Share Posted May 13, 2025 I'm not saying it's rigged but why don't they televise the drawing to prove it's not? They can publish everyone's combinations so when the balls come out it's abundantly clear that there's nothing nefarious going on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
