1. There is a fine line between something being a tongue-in-cheek joke and a problem. I’m not quite sure on which side of the line the NBA is on right now regarding the draft lottery based on reaction from fans.
With the Mavericks winning the lottery Monday, after having just a 1.8% chance to land the No.1 pick, and now in line to have Cooper Flagg join Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving next season, many fans are convinced there is something shady going on—and that’s an understatement. And I’m not just talking about some looney-tunes people on Twitter. There are legit people in the sports world who think the lottery is not exactly on the up and up.
