Cleveland Cavaliers ... AGAIN???

[wayne1218]

The Cleveland Cavaliers earned the No. 1 overall pick at the NBA draft lottery for the second straight season and third time in four years.

The Milwaukee Bucks had a 25 percent chance of landing the No. 1 pick, the best odds in the lottery, but had to settle for the No. 2 pick.

Since the lottery moved to its present format in 1994, the team with (or tied for) the best odds has won three of the 20 lotteries.

The Philadelphia 76ers got the third pick.

This is the fourth straight year the Cavs have a lottery pick. Four of their last six first round picks have been in the top 4.

The Cavaliers entered Tuesday night with just a 1.7 percent chance of landing the top overall pick but look to pair their 2014 pick with former No. 1 overall selections Kyrie Irving (2011) and Anthony Bennett (2013).

The 2014 draft will take place Thursday, June 26, and be aired on ESPN.

2nd year in a row and 3rd time in 4 years? WTF!

How does this team still suck!

1% chance and they get it again? Is this the NBA's way of getting Lebron back there? What a joke .......

[BigWeiner]

How many 1% winners have there been?

2

Them and the bulls in 2008 when they got Rose

League has to entice LBJ back to Cleveland somehow don't they?

[wayne1218]

My thoughts exactly kb. Cleveland will probably fuck it up again like they did last year!

[kbsooner21]

All the top 3 should be fine don't you think? I'd be happy with Embid, Wiggins, or Parker.

[wayne1218]

For some reason embid scares me. He already has back issues and big guys are so hit and miss like oden. I like Parker and wiggins. I think they will both be great!

My celtics at 6? Ugh ... Not sure what they get there. I was hoping for top 3 and a trade to minny for Kevin love. That is just a dream now!

[kbsooner21]

I heard Sacramento was going to try and trade for Rondo. You heard any rumors of that?

I think this is a very deep draft. Their will still be plenty of great players there. Gordon from Zona? McDermott? I'd love to have either one of those guys at 6. Julius Randal even.

[wayne1218]

I feel like they have randle already in sullinger. The guy I like is Gordon. I think he could be pretty good. I have not heard anything about that rondo trade kb. I've heard a lot about them trying to get love to pair up with rondo though.

Hey the cavs already have deng and Irving from duke and they need a coach. They could draft Parker and hire coach K and it could be the duke of the Midwest!

Yea, I forgot about Sully. Randle wouldn't be a good fit there. Gordon would be a great fit for your C's imo!

Bulls got Rose and Magic got CWebb both 1.7%. 17 balls out of 1000.

Last night ESPN said the Cavs tied the Bulls for the lowest % all time to get the #1. They didn't say anything about the Magic.
