     Back for a fifth year, though not at all by popular demand, is the guess-the-draft-order challenge! Don’t worry, it’s gotten even harder now that the NBA has modified the probabilities and given more teams similar odds of winning. But if you nail the top seven and trust a stranger enough with your address, I personally vow to mail you a check for one lump sum of $2.19 (this could be two tacos, if spent wisely!)

    1. Atlanta
    2. Cleveland
    3. New York
    4. New Orleans
    5. Phoenix
    6. Chicago
    7. Washington

       I suppose by "spent wisely," what I really meant was "if negotiated successfully with taco cart proprieter."

    If the knicks win, confirmed it rigged again with their frozen ball for Ewing. Maybe for a change instead of putting in the freezer that zap it in the microwave for 15 secs….

      I don’t think there are enough Knicks to drop predictions. It is basically a coin flip that they land 5th, and there are alreadu reports claiming they like Cam Reddish’s missed shots. Kyrie played like a bum in the playoffs. Durant’s strained calf is probably caused by an achilles that is just dying to go the moment he signs his new contract. The Jim Dolan Trifecta is coming together.

    With 4 teams being picked it certainly makes things interesting and gives other teams a chance to move up. Dallas could retain their pick. The Lakers could get lucky, Boston’s pick via Kings could come up trumps etc.

    Anyway I did a lottery simulator and came up with:-

    1. Memphis – Never have had a top pick and getting a chance to take Zion would be huge for them.

    2. NOP – If AD is going to move on then hit rebuild or could this pick tempt him to see out his deal. Also if they get Morant than Holiday could also be in play.

    3. Knicks – They get a decent consolation prize and can take RJ or possibly Morant.

    4. Hawks (own pick) – They move up one and can take best of the rest.

    I’m pretty sure that I won this in 2017… but anyway here’s my prediction for this year.
    I’m not overly confident in my prediction for this year and it’ll be interesting to see if we have any crazy jumps.

    1. New York Knicks – Zion Williamson
    2. Chicago Bulls – Ja Morant
    3. Memphis Grizzlies – R.J. Barrett
    4. Atlanta Hawks – DeAndre Hunter
    5. Cleveland Cavaliers – Jarrett Culver
    6. Phoenix Suns – Darius Garland
    7. Washington Wizards – Cam Reddish
    8. New Orleans Pelicans – Coby White
    9. Atlanta Hawks (Via DAL) – Jaxson Hayes
    10. Minnesota Timberwolves – Rui Hachimura
    11. Los Angeles Lakers – Bol Bol
    12. Charlotte Hornets – Goga Bitadze 
    13. Miami Heat – P.J. Washington
    14. Boston Celtics (Via SAC) – Tyler Herro

       I have a weird gut feeling that the Knicks are gonna fall to 4 or 5 so they can be in a good position to take Reddish.

      I’m going to stick with my original prediction though.

      If the Knicks don’t win the lottery (Zion), I can imagine Memphis, Phoenix, Cleveland or Washington being the winners of the Zion sweepstakes.
