because we reduced our odds???

The Lakers had worse odds than us. A lottery is a mechanism driven by "luck" or "Chance". If it falls it falls if it doesn't get over it and move on. Accept we are not as lucky as some other teams. We could have won the top pick and that would have had just as little to do with Fisher.

how would you like if you were trying to draw a flush and the dealer decided to remove one of your outs?


The two teams behind us jumped ahead.

There were probably people in LA and Philly crying about not tanking enough to have a worse record than us, and those teams were actually trying to tank, like Minny, by keeping players out of the game.

The Minny ball was chosen at #3, too!


Maybe they should remove the balls of the teams which are already picked... Seems fair, and might have helped our odds, but still, nothing is guaranteed, even if your odds of being picked are improved statistically.

This is something you move on about. Everyone here is pissed off at the lottery, but folks show their ignorance when they talk about things they don't understand, and blame a coach and players for trying to win.
