What are the odds that we get a 1-3 pick? Do we have a legitimate shot at keeping this thing or r we almost guaranteed to be out of top 3 and have to give pick away

4% chance of landing a top 3 spot
1.1% chance of 1st
1.3% chance of 2nd
1.6% chance of 3rd

Less than 5% chance.

But in the immortal words of Lloyd Christmas...

4% chance the pick lands in the top 3.

What sucks is that if we miraculously get a top 3 pick, countless people will scream "rigged!" because of AD and Boogie. Laker fans that are still mad about Cp3 7 years later will be the majority with this.

You're right, I didn't think about it for the melt possibilities. I'd probably head to whatever Laker message board there is and read for hours.

Especially because Lakers will get #1 overall so they get ball. I always thought lottery was rigged

You know it. It was odd that Walton said Magic flat out told him that he knows they are keeping their pick (which means it is top 3).

I'm not saying it's never been rigged, but if they did rig it they'd make sure Magic kept his damn mouth shut. Favoring 1 team disfavors 29 others. You have to really do something special to make 29 other owners look away, like maybe buy a toxic franchise off their hands at a premium price.

Maybe it was Walton who goofed by telling media.

The Lakers has had a really high pick for 3 years in a row and have done NOTHING to show for it. They have nobody to be angry at but themselves.

Agreed. However, Lakers being relevant is good financially for NBA.
