It is truly disgusting.
My fellow content creator and someone I thought was my friend completely discounted the Sixers in the Lottery tonight. Justin’s lottery article that dropped yesterday did not address all the facts but I am here to set the record straight. Tonight when the ping pong balls start bouncing the Sixers will have a 1% chance at the number 1 pick and boy it is going to be sweet when we get the #1 pick. After about 4,000 clicks on www.tankathon.com, I present to you the official mock lottery for tonight.
1. Philadelphia 76ers (via the Sacramento Kings)
Should the Sixers take Zion? Should they trade this pick for someone like Bradley Beal? I am not sure but I am ready to listen to the debates.
2. Cleveland Cavaliers
In a shocking turn of events a terrible Cavs team will not win the lottery. But hey Cavs fans at least you still have the beautiful city of Cleveland and LeBron.
3. Atlanta Hawks
It will be interested to see what kind of smear campaign the Hawks run to get Zion or Ja to fall to this spot. If one of those two does fall to this spot the Hawks are the early favorite for League Pass Team of the Year.
4. New Orleans Pelicans
I am interested to see how the 12 Pelicans fans react to this pick. The better question is will AD be on the Pelicans by the time they make this pick?
5. New York Knicks
LMAO. After tanking all year for Zion the Knicks fall to 5 and continue to struggle until the end of eternity. Would falling this far help or hurt the Knicks in obtaining KD and/or Kyrie this offseason? Please fax your responses to Britt
6. Phoenix Suns
This would be quite the fall for the Suns but honestly who cares? This pick will allow for another player to just stand and watch Devin Booker shoot.
7. Chicago Bulls
The streets of Tallahassee will be flooded with Seamus’ tears if the Bulls drop all the way to 7. I would pay $5 to watch Seamus crumble when the Bulls fall here.
8. Washington Wizards
#DraftCamReddish, let us help Justin get this hashtag trending because who would not want to see Cam Reddish flourish under John Wall’s leadership.
9. Boston Celtics (via the Memphis Grizzlies)
Man this would be glorious. This would be huge as the Celtics only get this pick if it falls outside the top 8. If it stays in the top 8 then it becomes top 6 protected in 2020 and then unprotected in 2021. This is the best asset the Celtics have in a potential AD trade, granted maybe we want AD on the Celtics as it is well known Brad Stevens cannot win with elite talent.
10. Atlanta Hawks (via the Dallas Mavericks)
The Hawks have to pick someone with a ridiculous bounce here as they prepare to host the first annual Lottery51 boyz weekend.
11. Minnesota Timberwolves
Whoever the T Wolves pick will have the chance to live in a city with a really cool mall.
12. Los Angeles Lakers
LeBron has one requirement for this pick, the player must be over 21. This is crucial as LeBron needs to be able to drink wine on the bench with this player as he manages his load for another year of not making the playoffs.
13. Charlotte Hornets
Pick 13 might as well be reserved for the Hornets every year.
14. Miami Heat
The key question here is which player fits the Heat’s #culture. My guess is some future middling role player that the Heat will eventually overpay.
