To me the draft lottery is the most interesting evolvement to come out of the CBA. I’m surprised to see no discussion on the matter. It starts next year, no?
I didn’t realize that all non playoff teams were eligible. I still think that the Cards won’t be in the lotto most years. An interesting twist would be to give one randomly selected playoff team a higher pick every year (like #5-7), as a bonus for not purposely trying to suck.
