Starting up the lottery. Refresher:
Broken down into consolation and championship brackets. Consolation is guaranteed a top 6 pick. Arbitrarily assign each player a value between 1 and 6, then run through a random number generator to determine first pick, second pick 3rd, etc.

I want to club the sh#t out of that bear. I made a trade cause I was thinking lottery, he blows it and doesn't make it into the playoffs then the player I gave him would have helped me in the playoffs. I got double effed!
-
What a joke. My first time ever for a top-six pick, and I get the sixth mother%&$*#@ pick. Unbelievable.
Skander, I know you think you're SO unlucky, but no one - NO ONE - leads a more unlucky life than me.
-
Hey - the cards get to face the dodgers in the first round - i call that lucky :)
I'm not even sure if i got shafted or not - but I've watched the NBA lottery enough to know that the top 3 is usually not the top 3 it should be :)

This also isn't weighted at all (except that it's broken in half, so consolation gets guaranteed top 6). finish 7th, finish 12th, it's all the same.

Well there you go then - 16.6 (approx) percent chance...me and odds don't get along well in general - even though I know it's really out to get me :)

I think Derek rigged it since I've bugged the crap out of him over the past week. ;)

If you'd like, you can have Antawn Jamison back. I'd really like either your pick or Pau Gasol.

I don't want Jamison, I want the pick position you are in.
-
That can be done as well. I'm willing to trade back in the draft. I do want Gasol, though.

I lost a potentially great draft position and a chance at winning the league last year after our last trade and it will ONLY cost me Gasol to get half of that back? Wow Joe, any other great deals you want to throw my way?
-
Hey - you liked the deal at the time.
In retrospect, if I had specifically tried to tank, I'd have just kept Jefferson, you'd have Jamison, and we'd have the same result. I gave it my best, and didn't pull it off.
In other words, "It serves you right for hoping to lose."

You roll around in the snow with a bear and you're bound to get wet! Or something like that....
