It's not televised. So it is possible to rig. And a big four accounting firm is always the one who ensures it is done right, and those guys cover shite up for big companies all the time.

Can you tell ESPN that?

That probably puts the Rockets right at league average though.

Yea, about average compared to other nba teams. They'd be higher if it weren't for LA and NYC having multiple teams

Easily. Just off the top of my head, you don't even do the damn thing and you just tell people how they ended up

Yeah. But I wouldn't call average "big market."

Eh, what's the real difference between houston and Philadelphia or atLanta? I mean houston isn't one of the big 3, but I really don't see a big difference after those three

Ernst & Young monitors the process. The NBA released an 11 minute video last year showing the process afterward. It was boring as frick, but it showed you that the lottery is not rigged.

Those who believe the NBA Draft lottery is rigged are the 9/11 inside job people of the sports world.

this. Film the entire thing and put it on tv. I don't know why it has to all be done in private.

It's not? I remember watching it last year, I think. Maybe I'm thinking of the draft.

And if given the option, the NBA would ship Wiggins to LA faster than a Matt Harvey fastball
