Of all the things that happen in the NBA that are questionable (see trade vetoes by NBA Commissioner or reneged deals after agreeing to join a team), one that probably comes in to play is the NBA Draft Lottery. The lottery seemed like a great idea on the surface, although the original idea behind it didn’t pan out quite so well.
Nowadays, teams love the lottery and hate it, depending on where they fall in the odds. Obviously it would be silly not to think that the draft order would change just a little bit during the lottery, but every once and awhile, crazy things happen at the craziest times and to the craziest teams.
