Dude, if the Dallas Mavericks somehow magically ending up with the top overall pick, isn’t one of the clearest signs of it being rigged that I’ve ever seen. I don’t know what is.

like nobody is actually believing this right?

Mavs had a 1.8% odds of winning the number 1 overall pick btw

In 2008, the Bulls had a 1.7% chance of winning the top pick which ended up being Chicago native, D-rose

A team that was in the finals last year won the draft lottery the next year..... I cant get over this poo.

The Mavs getting #1 is a travesty no doubt but the Spurs and 76ers getting 2 and 3 is fuggin criminal

The 4 countries tournament was one of the greatest sporting events I've ever seen in pro sports of any genre.

It had no bearing on the season but those guys played playoff level hockey for an exhibition.  

I'm a hockey casual and really on tune in to watch the Canes during the playoffs. But I was HOOKED on the Four Nations Tourney. We need more of that!

I think it will come back but to be honest, it probably can't be every year. Eventually it will lead to injuries and then questions will arise.

As a Canes fan, I would have been FURIOUS had any of our guys gotten knocked out for the season and jeopardized our Cup chances. I care absolutely nothing about the US winning that tournament in comparison to the Canes winning the Cup. One is neat, the other is why I am a season ticket holder.
