Gee, You Don't Suppose That Was Fixed...

This is funny every year. We had a what? 5% better chance than New Orleans, but them winning means it's fixed. I'll go ahead and write the headlines people were prepping for their latest "The Lottery is Rigged" story if somebody else had won:

Bobcats: The NBA fixed it to help out Jordan.

Cleveland: The NBA is making up for Lebron.

Warriors: The NBA is rewarding them for getting a new stadium deal.

Washington: Big market, more money

New Jersey: Moving to Brooklyn and it's a big market team with famous owners

Toronto: appeasing the Canadians and the Basketball Jones podcast.

But still people convince themselves that the NBA wanted the most popular player to go to New Orleans, which more than any other team and fanbase, is the basketball version of Siberia. Losing out on Davis sucks, but convincing yourself of some garbage conspiracy sucks worse.

I mean you should at least be happy that we got the 2nd pick, when we statistically had the greatest probabillity of getting the 4th pick (I know it's weird. Look it up).

these are all just dumb. the lotto was already rigged for cleveland last year because of lebron's departure. washington had it rigged 2 years ago with john wall.

but in all seriousness it is probably rigged. david stern is a piece of fuging poo human being.

The only two conspiracy theories I heard beforehand were Brooklyn and New Orleans. The rest of those are obviously stretches, especially the team with the lowest record getting the #1

    • His play style isn’t what’s needed and he’s slow to get off the time. Watching some of these all 22 clips and there’s once again a massive lack of speed on the field. 3rd year in a row I’ve said from day 1 Bryce needs route runners. He’s had one pure route runner and he turned Thielen into a 1000 yard receiver. At age 35. The Panthers drafted Young to be a “point guard” and proceeded to give him the exact opposite of what he’s needed. It would sure be nice to have a deep threat as well. Something Bryce had at Bama  
    • I'm the same and I just gave up on it years ago.  I expect the new sale to make it a worse fall into making bigger revenue streams and that's not going to be offline franchise. 
    • Renfrow for being a role player has been 100% fine.  Heck he should have at least 4 TDs.  Bryce Young just can’t throw the ball.  When he does look Renfrows way and he is open it’s almost always just a bad throw.  Renfrow also has been out there setting great picks like the big play to TMac, getting Bryce Young horrible turnovers wiped on away from the play routes etc.  You could literally already make a highlight real of bad throws to him by Bryce and none of that is pimping Renfrow.   It just highlights Bryce fails at basics over and over every week without fail
