    Since we either will or won't get the number one pick, that means our chances are 50%.

    Evan Turner is a better player than John Wall.

    Yes,but Wall has greater upside. He could turn out to be the better pro eventually.

    If we get a top 3 pick, I'll wear my red suit for a year!

    It's sort of like AB's, except it has a big black belt, black boots, a cloth cap, and a white beard.

    Dear Santa,

    Can you give the Rockets one of the top 3 picks of the draft as my Christmas present. Thanks.

    Then what's the point of sending AB if they already know the outcome?

    Myth.

    If they already know the outcome, then we really can't have Free Will.

    Odds of a top 3 pick are around 1/56, a 1.8% chance.

    What was the Rockets odds at getting #1 when we got Yao? Steve Francis was at that lottery if that helps.

    8.9% chance, which is hardly bad. They were a horrendous 28-54.

    If we win this year, Morey goes from being a genius to just plain god.
