Ouch. And Charlotte moves up 9 spots into #2. Tomorrow is the day! One last sim sequence for me tomorrow morning and then we get our one shot at #1.

Dude. Am I contagious?

OK, here goes...

3-4-4-3-1.

Hey, that’s pretty good by my standards. Maybe I’m starting to get better.

I got #1 on my first try. But to be honest, I did put the Suns' envelope in the fridge first so I could feel it by temperature.

That statement doesn't fit your avatar. Come on, now. Hubie Brown and I know that a bunch of fans doing simulations has nothing to do with the actual lottery. These are independent events. One has no effect on the other. Plus, we all know that individually, #4 is our highest percentage spot anyway.

We will get pick 4 and then with lots of terrific big man prospects on the board we’ll pick Trae Young because that is the most Suns thing that could happen.

Nah, if we get 4 we're either welcoming Bamba or Bagley as a Sun.
Go Suns!

Young would be the guy for me there, just because I wouldn't want to leave without an impact player and there is no guarantee that they could move back up high enough to get him.

I'm a fan of Trae Young, but I don't think he's worth a top-4 pick. That seems like an overrate of him to me. Maybe 7-8th pick at best. If you want Trae you Trade down for him.
