No idea... but let's hope the coin flip doesn't matter and we end up in the Top 3.
in looking at recent drafts the four and five spots have been pretty luck at landing a top 3 pick so there's that

This is a major reason why the NBA has teams stuck in crapville for many years. Yes, coaching, scouting, and player development play a major role, but so does talent, and the NBA, in an effort to discourage tanking, punishes truly awful teams by giving them such poor odds to land the best players in the draft. Oh, and tanking still happens. Way to go. (And I'm not just bitter about 1997 and 2007 for us - the lottery is screwed up, and basically rewards luck). If the lottery stays (which I think shouldn't - just be like EVERY OTHER LEAGUE and let the worst team pick first, etc.), at the very least, the odds need to be upped big-time for the worst teams. 25% odds of landing #1 for the worst team is crazy, and is bad for league development.
