ESPN's Lotto Simulator

ESPN and Chad Ford have their happy little lottery simulator up.  Happy clicking!

(hint, he has us taking Oden if we get number 1 and Noah if we fall to 3)

The Boston Celtics select Spencer Hawes with the 4th pick

That was painful.

jeff, u stole my “happy clicking” without even as much as a hat tip ;)

If we draft Noah for any reason we are completely screwed. Think of a not so talented Camby… So wiry he will get hurt all the time, and only show glimpses of ability here and there. If we don’t get spot one or two I am for trading the pick. Noah will be a legit bust… Write it in stone.

I played 8 times and the Celtics won the # pick 7 times. The other time the Sonics won, and the C’s got the number 2. Send me! lol.

I thought I heard a statistic the other day which dictated that the team that had the longest losing streak in a given season always ended up with the first overall pick in the draft.. Hmm..

Thanks Jeff, I can’t get the Bulls to stop drafting Josh McRoberts. It’s like living in a living nightmare!

That thing is rigged I hit it like 30 times the Cs only got the #1 pick for times and like 7 or 8 #2 picks…I remember using the lottery thing last year everyone got the #1 multiple times and the Cs never moved out of the 7 or 8 spot….FIX

I agree want no part of Noah at the # 3 pick…At about #22 I consider him to be a smart pick maybe even that is too high…

Name me one great thing he does well…other than Hustle

Soooo Jeff, we take Wright with #2 ;)

If we get anything outside of the top 2 we are much better off just packaging it with theo’s contract and another one of our young “assets” not named Al for a big with an outside shot to play off Al like Rashard Lewis or Gasol

I clicked about 20 times, the celtics got oden at #1 10 times, memphis got oden at #1 9 times, atlanta got him once.

I just watched Phoenix use ATL’s numbre 5 pick to get Noah…

The rich get richer.

And for those that do not like Noah’s game, thank goodness you aren’t evaluating talent for Ainge. He’s to thin, and all he does is hustle! Would you prefer a fat guy with a bad attitude?

Noah has shown some Bosh, some Amare, and some Kirlenko. He’s 6’11" and can defend and flush in transition. He is my number three choice too.

I’ve tried just once and we got durant with #2…

Im sure Paul Pierce has used it a million times already…

;)

It took me about 10-11 times before the Celtics got WORSE than a top 2 pick, and it was #3. And the only time Oden wasn’t picked #1 was when Charlotte won the lottery. You know what that means??? nothing

by CelticsWhat35 on Mar 6, 2007 8:12 AM EST reply actions  

It’s a lot cheaper and less disruptive to the team to draft a big with an outside shot (Hawes) than to trade the farm for one, IMHO.

I rolled it once…came up C’s 1st with Oden…I quit and went out for an beer thinking about Durant…Hmmm!

by BoundingRounder on Mar 6, 2007 8:29 AM EST reply actions  

If they were to take Noah with the 3rd pick that should get Danny and Doc fired for sure. Noah holds no remedies for this teams deficiencies, sure he hussles but this team needs a lot more than someone that plays hard and hussles. Honestly I don’t think Danny would be that naive to take Noah with the 3rd pick. Noah isn’t considered the best player on his team anymore, Hortford is the main guy on that team now.

by micah kenneth on Mar 6, 2007 9:40 AM EST reply actions  

out of about 15 times we got #4 once and #3 three times, #1 twice and number 2 the rest of the way. I think we will end up with Durant and I am more than happy with that.
Oden = defensive half court team (early shot clock, as Doc likes to call it).
Durant = Offense up and down team.

by aboubata on Mar 6, 2007 10:07 AM EST reply actions  

Cripes. I did it and the first time the Celts got the #5. I played it about 30 times. Celts got the #4 pick about 18-20 times. Noah almost every one. We got the #1 pick 3 times with oden, #2 with durant about 5 times the rest were #5. I really hope that is nothing close to reality because seeing us getting knocked out the top 3 20 times really bites.
