6:30 pm over on ESPN. I’m guessing the envelopes probably won’t be opened until 7.

1. Phoenix 25%
2. Memphis 19.9%
3. Dallas 13.8%
4. Atlanta 13.7%
5. Orlando 8.8%
6. Chicago 5.3%
7. Sacramento 5.3%
8. Brooklyn (Cleveland) 2.8%
9. New York 1.7%
10. LA Lakers 1.1%
11. Charlotte 0.8%
12. Detroit 0.7%
13. LA Clippers 0.6%
14. Denver 0.5%

Bulls have an 18.3% chance getting into the top 3.

If Lakers land #1 pick, stay at #10, or the pick falls to #11, #12, or #13, it goes to Sixers. If they land the #2 or #3 pick, it goes to Celtics.

Cleveland receives Brooklyn’s pick no matter where it lands.

I don’t want Orlando getting a top 3 pick. They would just blow it anyway and I’d feel bad for the guy they drafted.

When will the slots be announced? Used to be halftime of whatever game was on that night.

This isn't like last years draft, need to get into the top 4.
Any chance Bagley is there at 5?

They draw the first 3 teams randomly, then the order is set accordingly. There’s usually always one team that jumps into the top 3. Sometimes two. Hopefully the Bulls do it tonight. They’ve got an alright shot.

Phoenix / Cleveland / Lakers -- to make sure they cover LeBron staying in Cleveland and moving to LA.

This draft is loaded, possible franchise changing playes available as late as 8.


Very similar to last year's draft in terms of overall talent, only difference is this year is big heavy whereas last year was guard heavy.

Lakers have cap room and are planning to make a play for big time free agents. Also have a really nice young core. I wouldn't call them fucked just cause they don't have a lottery pick this year.

I meant they’re fucked as far as a draft pick goes in the first round. Better to have a pick than not. They essentially traded a guy like Sexton or Knox for 65 games of a broken down Steve Nash.
