The NBA Lottery is right around the corner!
Well start bargaining and making your sacrifices to the basketball gods now, because it's only 4 days til ping pong time!
Maybe we can move up for the first time? Nah!!

Imagine the pandemonium on WC if we lucked out and got #1. We might actually all rejoice together and get along for a few hours.

Re: The NBA Lottery is right around the corner!
Maybe we should use a rube here to represent us like Cleveland did to win the lottery?
Now, who here is most like that Cleveland kid?

Re: The NBA Lottery is right around the corner!
i refuse to endorse this suggestion. if we got the first, dougy would undoubtedly whack off and then take a large dump on live TV. it couldn't be helped - scatalogy is his bread and butter. but the nba would penalize us for the outburst and redo the ping pong drop. we'd go from #1 to #11. then, on draft night, we'd wind up with bol bol instead - who would break both kneecaps tripping on the stairs on the way to the podium.
There is little difference between the memory of a real event and the memory of a dream.

Re: The NBA Lottery is right around the corner!
Dont worry. I'd draw up an indemnification agreement that would prohibit the NBA from punishing the Wolves for Bubbles behavior. Full immunity for his inevitable poop play.somuchyummy wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2019 1:58 pmi refuse to endorse this suggestion. if we got the first, dougy would undoubtedly whack off and then take a large dump on live TV. it couldn't be helped - scatalogy is his bread and butter. but the nba would penalize us for the outburst and redo the ping pong drop. we'd go from #1 to #11. then, on draft night, we'd wind up with bol bol instead - who would break both kneecaps tripping on the stairs on the way to the podium.

Lakers get the #1 pick, Wolves fall a slot. Sounds about right.

Re: The NBA Lottery is right around the corner!
Are you kidding? The NBA wouldn't want constant national TV games of Towns and Zion beasting? Why? Because of the zero money they get from NY's cable TV contract? Here's something I can't believe you don't know. The NBA has nothing to do with teams anymore as to money. It's about stars.The Replacements wrote: ↑Sun May 12, 2019 8:52 pmWould the NBA let the Wolves have Zion?

Re: The NBA Lottery is right around the corner!
Houston back in the McGrady days was not a global phenomenon, they got Yao, then all of a sudden the whole Houston squad was making all star games. I don't think it matters anymore unless you consider the fattest city in America to be some international hub of sophistication.The Replacements wrote: ↑Mon May 13, 2019 11:42 amZion in NY or Chicago would be huge globally.

Are some of you still under the impression the lottery is rigged even though there’s ample evidence that’s it preposterous? It’s like the dumbest conspiracy theory is professional sports.
