NBA Draft Lottery 2004
 

Or in other words, all that there is to look forward to if you are a Bulls fan.

Here's hoping Paxson can get as good a pick as he got last year with Hinrich.

I havent followed the NBA this season. This is the 1st season in 7 or 8 years I haven't watched atleast 2 games a week. But going into last years draft I had hinrich pegged as a big bust. How did he do this season?

He was really, really good. Best player on the Bulls last year (although I guess I could've been the best player on that squad.

Neuqua can give the scouting port, but here's his stats.

TEAM	G	GS	MPG	FGM-A	FG%	3PM-A	3P%	FTM-A	FT%	OFF	DEF	TOT	APG	SPG	BPG	TO	PF	PPG
CHI	76	66	35.6	318-823	.386	144-369	.390	135-168	.804	.60	2.90	3.40	6.8	1.33	.28	2.68	3.60	12.0

wow, something good happened to the clippers. thats weird

I'll give the scouting report after the lottery is over :)

Even when they're not playing, the Hawks suck.

i haven't had the draft lottery on, whats the order looking like?

Everything is the way it should be except the Clippers have moved into the top 3.

The Clippers are gonna' take who, Ben Gordon or Jameer Nelson?

Do they really need a guy like Okafor, Howard, Deng, etc?

Magic, Clippers, Bulls top 3

Damn. #3 for the Bulls. I have a distinct feeling this draft pick won't ever even put on a Bulls uniform.

Well, ok, Deng I could see them taking. But as far as legit big men in the 4 or even 5, would they go that route ... again

This is the Draft conspiracy that I have heard so much about? :D

Enjoy Disney World Emeka! Even though I trade the pick

There can't be any draft conspiracies this year; the knicks and lakers both made the playoffs. Giving either of them the #1 would've given the conspiracy theorists even more ammo!

I heard Deng is headed for Charlotte if he isn't picked in the the top 3.

"Miracuolusly, one single Laker ball has accidentally been put in the lotto, and what do you know, with that .001 percent chance, the ball has come up for the first pick overall! The Lakers will pick #1.."

The Clippers better trade that pick. They can't take Nelson or Gordon with the #2.

yes they can, watch them.

I'm actually more worried they will take Howard or Okafor and watch them land in the power forward abyss that is the Clippers roster.

My favorite part of that whoel thing was the Orlando guy talking about hoping Grant Hill would be healthy soon. Hey, I hate duke, but i like Hill, but come on, its time to retire.

Let's see just how incompetent Orlando can be if they decide Okafor has too little potential and draft some high school kid instead.

You just figuring that out? :)

Why? Just stay injured and collect the money. That's what Albert Belle did....

Nah, they have to grab Okafor to try and convince T-Mac that they're serious about winning NOW...
