And the ownership is just going to move the team to Vegas, so the Mavs fans will get double whammied.

Dallas made the play in but got the #1 pick?



This should be between the bottom 4 teams only.

There is a reason Luka Donic was traded out of nowhere. This was the deal that was made

So the teams with the 4 beat odds ended up 4-7. Someone better at stats than me needs to run those odds b/c it has to be a billion to 1.

Rigged. Flat out rigged.


This is the chaos that comes from the flattened lottery odds. I tried telling this board during the season but nobody cared about anything but maxing losses and getting an extra percent or 2. It was always a crap shoot and where we landed impacted our floor way more than our ceiling.

Was it rigged when AD requested a trade and we won the lottery?

It's no coincidence San Antonio, Dallas, and Philly who has the biggest storylines this year got the top picks.

I can’t wait to trade this pick for like Sabonis so we can win 40 games and lose in the Play-In

If AD were traded out if nowhere midseason and we were originally picking 12th then jumped all the way up, I might say yes.

AD was traded after the lottery though, and Griffin was still trying to talk him into staying, so that statement holds no weight

So the Mavs and Spurs get the 2 best and most likely to be stars players in the draft. Great day to be a Pels fan.

Honestly I think SA trades the pick. They are loaded at guard with Fox and Castle. Or I could see them go Bailey and Philly go Harper.

If I’m NOLA I do everything I can to make Dallas say no.

Zion, 7, future 1st, and Herb for 1 and Naji
