    13.1 % chance they end up with the #1 pick (theirs + Kings pick odds), 53.9% chance they end up keeping their pick. The chances of them ending up with #1 and #4 are probably less then 1%. That math is above my pay grade.

    Surely it will be closer to 13% rather than 1%. If Philly get the #1 pick we knock out one of the Celtics, Suns and Lakers (with the lakers being most likely) out of the top 3, meaning we get pick 4 or whatever.

    Watch the Lakers keep their pick and then sign a big free agent or make a big trade then all of a sudden be a 4-5 seed next year.

    Phillys pick would go from 4th to the low 20s.... :'(

    I would love it if we somehow got Sam Hinkie as GM or something to turn this s--- around.
    They have Linsanity though. :wow2:
    f--- off we need the odds for the lottery.

    Ugh.. I don't even know if I'd count him since he was way past his prime..

    But yeah we got a new GM and Magic running things, plus a good young core and good coach so hopefully that changes soon. Although I'd also be fine with trading 1 or 2 of the young pieces to get someone.

    I'm so desperate I'd slightly consider it at this point even though I've disliked him his whole career and think he can't really be on a championship team..

    Im not doing that math but the Lakers have like a 37.5% chance of landing the 2nd or 3rd pick. 53.1% to land top 3 and 15.6% to be #1. So there would still be a significant chance that it doesn't fall out.

    Either way very very unlikely that happens.
