    Yeah, thank god the Lakers didn't get it. Everybody crying about it being rigged, why would they want Cleveland to get more picks? They waste it half the time anyway. If it were really rigged, the Lakers would have won it.

    Dude they've already had like 5 top 5 picks in the last few years. They got their karma fix already. Last team to deserve it.

    Sad part is you know the Cavs will still suck and be picking number 1 again 4 out of the next 10 drafts.

    Terrible franchise

    So my understanding is the top 5 of Embiid, Wiggins, Parker, Randle, Exum are more or less locks to be stars?

    And the Lakers missed out on all of them?

    :grin:

    In a way, the Rockets came out of the lottery winners.

    Niether Boston or LA get a top 3 pick which makes it much harder for them to trade for Love.

    Why is Lebron leaving unfair?

    Dude was a free agent and free to do what he wants. It's his life.

    Cavs were an elite team 5 years ago. They don't deserve all these high lottery picks. Bucks suffer over and over with no real good players. I feel bad.

    Might make it easier for them to pull the trigger for Love. With a top 3 pick they might want to keep the pick instead of trading for an upcoming FA, maybe not so much now.

    Boston didn't win the 2007 (Oden/Durant) lottery and traded that #5 pick for Ray Allen, then packaged other assets for Garnett.
