I was playing with the ESPN Lottery and Mock Draft Randomizer (It's below the Jerry West picture and it's the link that says "Lottery + Mock Draft" http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/index ) and after pushing the button a few times it seem we will be getting either Spencer Hawes or Roy Hibbert. Try it. It's fun and post who the Kings get.

If we cannot get Oden or Durant that is.
We should be able to manipulate who we get if it can be electronic rather then a actual ball that is pulled like in the $ lottery with the air blowing them around. Heah if the Presidential election can be manipulated, why cannot we get Oden or Durant with a little creativity?

I've been playing around with that and done about 20 different "lotteries." In virtually every single one of them there's some kind of problem. Generally the logos for the teams don't match the team names. AND, in all but three attempts, the Kings have been at #10 and selected either Hibbert or Hawes. Maybe it's worn out???
EDIT: I've now done it over 40 times and only the top three positions are actually changing regularly. Slots #10-#14 are constant with #4-#9 generally the same but occasionally different. Balderdash...

i got greg oden epsn mock
im down with the idea jeff green and roy hibbert maybe staying in college and our draft chances looking very ugly.
so i did the espn mock draft and the third try i got greg oden with the number 1 pick. I can dream the chances are in our favor for this to really happen right? 1.4 maybe higher after the Laker loss.

Noah is going to be like Corliss Williamson. An excellent sixth man glue guy.
That disgusts me that that silly machine thinks we would take Noah over Hibbert.
gross.
Hawes or HIbbert, #10 all the time

Think Noah's going to be a 7-foot tall Shane Battier type.
I think the Noah comparison is Tyson Chandler. Chandler's got the advantage because he's taller and more athletic, but assuming he carries over his energy, Noah's got the better motor. I think he could have a bigger impact than people give him credit for, but at the same time, I agree with those who question his ultimate potential.

Also we will have the best pick we haven't enjoyed in some time now so let's make it count. Come on lottery balls, please work for us. Does anyone know if all the balls are uniform with only a small indication of the team? It would be more fair if they just had a # that coresponded to the team. You could then go down the line and give Memphis their 250 balls #1-250, and then move along down the line of the order of the teams, then make sure they are bobbled enough so as not to cheat.
It would make it unfair I believe to have the balls in the color of the team or even just the team's name enabling a person to pick the ball of the team and it not to be random. What am I talking about.....we need the ball to be known and have a agent on our side so we get Oden or Durant!!!!
