NBA Draft Lottery 2014

[@chasegrocks]

So rigged.... 3 out of the last 4 years with the number one pick in the draft since lebrons departure.

[@osu5inarow]

Really with a chance to bolster the two storied franchises in NBA history and the NBA won't take it really tell me how that didn't happen

[@brettnelson674]

lol yeah, lets rig it so a small market teams win it....Moron

[@TheEpic22]

Cleveland being a small market team doesn't matter when the biggest name in the sport is with them. You people are morons.

[@jesuschristmyking8644]

They already knew Lebron was coming back home.

[@juicyjay8642]

@Deejay Eff89 the 93 Magic and 08 Bulls had even less odds, and they Penny and D-Rose respectively!

[@vargas218]

It didn't really matter who won. From what I've seen , everybody keep saying it was rigged.

[@latrellsprewell698]

It's funny how things turned out to be after you wrote that 2 years ago,

so rigged i love how they cant show the fucking drawings from the ping pong balls. the NBA wants the cavs to succeed so bad yet next year they still won't be very good

[@expos2710]

why would any league want, of all the cities, cleveland to succeed? sure it has the emotional tie but leagues only care about money. im a cleveland fan too. no way it's rigged.

[@brettnelson674]

Lol, only tin foil hat, live in their parent's basement, moronic, douche bags think the NBA draft is rigged. "Yeah lets rig a draft where if we get caught we could risk the integrity of our billion dollar product. ALSO! Lets rig it so a Cleveland market gets the first pick instead of 3 much larger markets in Boston, LA, & Philly!!!" YAAA WHOOO (fucking morons)

[@Bigbaby950]

so why cant they show us the ping pong balls behind the scenes? kinda weird how when the cavs get in the top 3 they get the 1st pick.

[@TheEpic22]

When a team has a 1 in 50 shot at winning and they win, it can seen as good luck. But when that team just happens to be bringing on the biggest name in the NBA today, it's a little suspicious. If it were just Lebron and Kyrie, they would not have been very great, and when the biggest name in your company isn't in the spotlight, it will hurt your company. The Cavs were planning on acquiring Love from the Wolves but didn't have anything good to trade for him, but all of a sudden they get the number 1 pick with statistically and historically unlikely odds. And to add fuel to the fire, the top prospect was known as "the next Lebron" ( who just happened to be on that team), and now they have a player with immense potential who they don't want, and that is the perfect trade item for the player they actually wanted. Now the biggest name in the NBA was once again on the team favorited to win the championship, which generates more buzz and in turn more profit for the NBA. When the odds of a happy accident occurring are worse than the odds of a smart tweaking of the results by the NBA occurring, it's only logical to believe in the latter. Especially since nobody actually saw the drawing take place, other than a few people who were undoubtably in on it. I want the NBA to do the drawing on national TV, otherwise it's dumb to believe they wouldn't do something like this.
