2012 NBA Draft Lottery, Wed 8 ET, ESPN

Regarding ESPN and the stupid things they do, I just saw their ticker showing lottery teams and their chance at getting #1 and they had New Orleans at 14% and Cleveland at 13%. How hard is it to get the pre-lotto order correct? Idiots.

Don't watch ESPN!

Heard the stat today on the way home.. the #4 team in the lotto had never won... until tonight.. and it was the team that the NBA just sold.....uhm..

There is a reason I bet on only one other team than the Cavs to win the lottery... New Orleans made TOO much sense for the league to fix them to have the #1 pick. :pimp:

Were they by chance adding the chances of New Orleans two first round picks together to get the higher odds?

Gotta love conspiracy theory people. There's about five teams that could've won and people would still be claiming conspiracy theory. I've heard people claim conspiracy when Cleveland got LeBron, even though they had the highest probability of winning. You just have to smile and nod your head.
