    wtf is this bullsht. i thought it was like an acutal lottery ball drop or some sht. briefly glanced at the 2020 draft, and it was just some asian dude ripping a "sealed" envelope with the supposed draft order. isnt a riggin possible?

    Golden State can't. But the odds vary by team. Like Golden State can only pick 14th (98% likely), or they have a 2% chance of picking in the top 4. Every team after that, their odds vary, with a chance to move back from their pre-lottery order by a few picks or an increasing chance to land in the top 4. If you want the odds of every pick for every team, here's a handy reference I've been using: http://www.tankathon.com/pick_odds

    Of course. Have you not been paying attention to our friend @Reeko ? Our boy thinks we have this in the bag because Silver will do us a favor for sending James to a big market.

    I on the other hand have accepted the 18th pick as our fate.

    Lol, can't argue with your logic. If we get 18th, that's what I thought, but if we get top 4... we going streaking through the quad. :D

    Only upside baby!

    Yes, thank you Clutch! Partly because no matter how many articles etc have been linked to, and explanations given ad nauseum, it's not real until Clutch says it :D

    Hmm. I'm sure we will end up being that 5%. Brace yourselves Rockets fans.

    Tonight I find out how big of a colossal waste of time this year was overall lol. And there I was like a sucker watching every damn game along with the usuals.

    Our plan for tonight should be Hakeem comes out for the intro ... then switches with Vernon Maxwell who has a “**** the jazz” T-shirt on.

    Then Tilman starts live tweeting a party he’s having at his house . It’s gaudy , there’s **** that like indicates we have a top 4 pick . It’s Tilman and his family plus Tate , KPJ , Silas , and Will weaver all looking uncomfortable.

    ra’fell will have an amazing press conference tomorrow.

    I have foretold it
