Pray Oden pulls a Brady Quinn and falls to the sixth pick?

That percentage can't possibly be accurate, but either way I'm happy that the three teams that tanked the worst this season got screwed the most by the lottery.

no????
the top picks where suppose to be between bogut and marvin williams it wasnt a strong draft bogut was the right choice. and they had tj ford who looked great so....

and i think the percentage is off... i got that from some other bucks fa n who was pisssed... but i did see the most likely chance of the top 3 teams not getting a top 3 pick was with the teams that moved up the way they actually did this year and that was .08% so all together it was still like .1% at most chance?

They had about a 4% chance of moving down to the sixth pick. Not too likely but hardly out of the realm of possibility.



You can't blame the Bucks too much for drafting Andrew Bogut because almost every team would have picked him at #1, but still, he's not that good, there were two awesome PG's drafted at #3 and #4, and the Bucks now have one of the worst group of PG's in the NBA. Tough to see that team doing much anytime soon.

i think that Jerry West needs a little losing in his life - to hell with him and all his whining...The guy had Wilt Chamberlain and Elgin Baylor for teammates, then got Magic and Kareem as players - He brought in shaq and got Kobe for like nothing - Vlade Divac I think? Or was it less than that - And now he's going through a bit of losing and he acts like the whole world is against him...to hell with him - And besides, Portland was the worst last year and got #4, so it looks like it all worked out for them....Of course, there wasn't an Oden or Durant last year, so maybe not really....

My friend who's a huge Boston fan went and broke a chair when the Celts got the 5th pick - that was funny shit - especially since they were BLATANTLY tanking at the end...but at least he still has the Red Sox
