Re: 2017 NBA Draft Lottery
The simulators and past lotteries are only useful when you want to estimate the percentages to get different picks. Since the odds are known anyway it's all pointless, we already know all there is to know about it.

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Lottery
Just accept that we are a mortal lock to get the 4th pick. New York, LA, and Boston all have high lotto ball counts. There is no way we are staying ahead of any of them.

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Lottery
Well. Kind of. I've never had or played a superbone. But loved Superman comics as a kid and I play the trombone. It was what I came up with for my CB handle way back in the day when I was a kid on a road trip. However, I was aware of the instrument at the time. But yeah, my alias is read as SUPER-bone. Also, I should add, I was innocent to other connotations of the word at the time. So now you have my origin story.Indy wrote:Who am I to judge? but yes, it is this:TheOriginalOriginal wrote:Wait, am I wrong for always having read that as Superb one?
