pretty sure the sixers will get #1. i have a feeling mutombo has some inside knowledge did that tankathon thing and out of 10 times, the lakers got #1 3 times and #2 3 times anyways, i'm expecting them to lose the pick. don't get your hopes up folks
Well that's what he'd have to say lol. He's not gonna admit to jumping the gun on the lottery being rigged. I agree it's probably just a case of him getting confused by the lottery odds though. BUT, hypothetically, Philly getting the 1st pick would improve our chances of keeping our pick right? We lose our pick if two teams outside of the top 3 jump up into the top 3. If Philly hypothetically had #1 locked up, that removes a position for a team outside the top 3 to jump into.
Multiple team reps were tweeting around 3:45-4 PM Pacific Time that they were about to go into the lottery drawing room then. The drawing hadn't taken place yet when Dikembe tweeted. Promise.
