1994 NBA Draft Lottery

[@nonplayerzealot4]

10th pick, Eddie Jam Jones, baby! He was the steal of the late lottery. Jerry West loved him, resisted trading him for Rice.

@nonplayerzealot4 They had pulled the triger for Kobe's sake. Neither him nor Eddie wasn't fit for small foward.

Eddie Jones was a solid pick. I liked him.

Thanks for posting

hey bro do you have the 96 draft lottery if so can you please post it

[@nonplayerzealot4]

Minnesota guy disgusted. 4 was the booby prize of that draft. Big Dog, Kidd, Hill and blech. They should've drafted Jones over Donyell.

[@bumblebity2902]

Yup they dump Marshall at the rookie season, for Gugliota. They missed the shot to form solid BIG 3.

[@nonplayerzealot4]

@@bumblebity2902 Marshall, in his defense, was something of a late bloomer. However, it was a weak top 10 beyond the top 3, hence the booby prize. Sheed and Eddie Jones were the best value in the top 10 if not Donyell, but it's also hard to pick players projected to go lower than the pick you got. Sheed was probably known as a wildcard attitude wise, but no one could've predicted how bad he would become w/ the Ts later on. So in 94, the GMs were all praying for 1-3. Even then, Robinson at 1 was risky. I remember him scoring 30 a game in school, but most years a guy like Hill or Kidd would go before that.

@@nonplayerzealot4 Sheed was drafted 1995, not 1994.

[@nonplayerzealot4]

@@bumblebity2902 Oh, true, scuse. Scratch the Sheed part.

The NFL would never do this! However hypothetically in 1983 if NFL had adopted a draft lottery Colts would’ve not won the #1 pick & Elway may have never ensued any drama!

Bucks should have taken GHill or JKidd.

[@bigtruth2246]

Bucks made the right pick. Jason Kidd lasted two seasons in Dallas and Detroit didn’t improve beyond early playoffs. Robinson played 10 years for the Bucks and they got to the Eastern Conference Finals.

[@toppdogg2815]

that's easy to say in hindsight, but at the time Big Dog was the clear best player in that draft

[@smoothALOE]

Glenn Robinson was alright. I think he led all Rookies in scoring that season and the Bucks were knocking on the door for a playoff birth, too. Of course, we all know what happened to Grant Hill, but Jason Kidd easily had the best career of anyone else in this draft lottery.
