“Give Luka to the Lakers, and I’ll get you Flag” - Adam Silver probably
they did the same thing with the Pels… Silver traded AD to Lakers and rewarded them Zion
We Won Him Fair And Square SUCK IT LOSERS
All for lebron. Fck that guy. He knew it. He force the nba hand twice. 😂😂 incredible.
@@ChaunceyBillups1AD wanted to leave though, that implies Luka actually wanted to leave Dallas
@@DoctaSalt No, Adam wanted Luka on the Lakers so it was so. lol.
Leauge ain’t even try to hide it man lol
Exactly omg
@@Cali_Lina824same shit with Ad and zion lmfao
they did the same thing with the Pels… Silver traded AD to Lakers and rewarded them Zion.
So Adam Silver made sure AD and Kyrie got injured so they would miss the playoffs? Y’all don’t have 2 brain cells to rub together. It wasnt fucking rigged
Can't make this shit up, traded Luka to somehow get the 1st overall pick wtf
"this is a kids game! played by giant adults! why do I care so much!" - absolutely incredible opening line 😭😂
Terrible line because basketball isn’t a kids game
Luka gets traded to the biggest market in the NBA in a behind closed doors deal and the same year the Mavericks win the lottery...FISHYYYYY
Evidently, there are some that don't get this!😅 I truly hate the Mavs organization.
It was rigged from the start.
It happened with the AD trade too
Plus the fact the Cs are still good right now all the league wants is the classic Boston v LA dynasty like the 80s
It's just an unlikely coincidence.
Silver made the call

“We can’t just trade one of the biggest stars in the NBA for scraps”
“We’ll give you first pick”
Nico: "does Coop have a drinking problem?"
The only thing about this theory I question is that Kyrie and AD’s injuries were unpredictable. When they made that trade in February I’m sure the Mavs were expecting a healthy playoff push this season, which would’ve kept them out of the lottery
@@dirkfade113who would bet on kyrie and AD to stay healthy😂
No way to predict Kyries ACL. That being said, I do think it was owed to the Mavs for the future and since they became a dumpster fire and lost the fanbase to the #4 media market so it came early. Weird thing is, Mavs went from Dirk, to Luka, to Flagg. Assuming Nico even drafts Flagg. That’s what I’m worried about.
i get it u trade your star player 2 years later u get a top 5 pick Vince Carter= Andrea Bargnani
Nico knew all along that’s why he wasn’t fired 😂
They know something we don’t know behind the scenes lmao
@@UniqueUserName123wrong channel bro its ball-knowers around here
they did the same thing with the Pels… Silver traded AD to Lakers and rewarded them Zion
@@UniqueUserName123L take. Ironically your opinion is closer to Stephen A then ours
why would he get fired for a trade the owners wanted
This reminds me of 2007 in the nhl where the oilers and stars were playing and the oilers are down by one with a minute left and the oilers pull their goalie. One of the stars plays, Patrick Stefan gets a breakaway with an empty net but falls over and the oilers end up scoring and forcing overtime. The stars end up winning in the shootout but with the extra point for going into overtime the oilers jump past the black hawks by one point in the standings which then the blackhawks win the lottery and draft a generational player in Patrick Kane which is a big reason why they won 3 cups in 6 years. If Stefan were to not fall over and score the oilers would have won the lottery and got Kane. Crazy how one play can change history so drastically
There was also that one regular season game that decided the difference between Jaromir Jagr going to the Penguins... or the Islanders 😱
The worst part isn't even the Mavs getting Flagg, but the prospect of Wemby and Giannis is an avenger's level threat
Wemby and giannis are literally my favorite and second favorite player man, that team is going to be insane
That's cool I'm just glad we got a Luka replacement far as having a future outside of AD and kyrie 💪💪
Right😂😂 plus they could keep that castle and fox like that team could be champions in the next 5 years same with dallas the west about to become the gulag
Bruh they u dont know how close they were to getting Flagg. Feel like we kinda dodged a bullet not seeing the spurs get both Flagg and Wemby like those both have the ceiling of being top 5 players i. The nba
I think the mavs trade for Giannis
Dallas: #1 for sending Luka to LA
SA: #2 for a Giannis package
Philly: #3 to rebuild momentum in a large market
Charlotte: whatever
Utah and Wash: die.
Lmao san antonio does not want giannis
@@No-xo1kxyou out your mind if you don’t think they clearing their roster to pick him up lmao aside from Wemby trust and believe everyone is tradable. It’s only 3 players that are considered on par with Gianni’s stop trollin
It’s nuts too because Washington would be such a great market if the NBA even put an iota of effort into them
@@No-xo1kxIf you think San Antonio wouldn’t trade #2 for Giannis then I’ve got a beachfront property in Idaho to sell you.
Someone gets it!!!👏
Oh, Kenny is actually dying on this hill 🤣🤣; the odds were never 50/50.
The Mavs gotta be studied for obtaining the best Caucasians in Basketball 😂
Nah it’s actually kinda wild. Imagine if they had Bird they’d be even wilder.
Bruh 😂😂😂😂 lowkey fact tho
@@deaconspeaksthey wasnt around when he was drafted
When the League tells you to bail LA out, you bail LA out. End of story.
thats texas baby🤣
Bro Kenny you need to accept that even if the bulls won the coin toss the mavs were always ending up with the first pick
Aside from the draft possibly being rigged, the Bulls winning the flip creates a completely unknown draft where the results would almost certainly be totally different. Nobody understands chaos theory. Or if they do, they forget to apply it to their actual life.
Facts, ima mavs fan and ngl I wish I would’ve put money on it I’d been saying this no matter how bad it sounds the nba not gonna let Texas fail and rebuild again after all that scrutiny. That fan base was basically cut in half and they just started contending again which was heartbreaking. What better way to revive the fan base? Fishy as fuck but I can’t not be happy when rigged shit somehow goes my way.
@@davidwarde3872 it’s not about reviving Texas. It’s about rewarding those who help the Lakers
@@davidwarde3872mavs up my boii 😂😂
Short bus comment
Kenny creating the whole pot a pot b theory, first to say "it's cool to see it like that but i can't" , then to "ook the bulls are nice, i live in the moment, i'm in pot b for now" to then say he was an idiot for that is so funny to me. Love you Kenny😂😂
NBA rigs this lottery everytime bro Charlotte and Washington can’t ever catch a break
Has charlotte ever had a #1 pick??? I swear they are always in the top 5 every year and I don’t have memory of them getting the top pick. Keep in mind the 7-59 bobcats did not get the top prize that year…
Fr. I don't even know why I watch anymore as a Charlotte fan. I think I'm just gonna stick to hockey, no point.
My man, if it were rigged, Chicago or Brooklyn would've got it. Y'all gotta stop.
@@Gerryxhyz fr the canes are all we got because the hornets can never do anything
@@Camhobza i believe in 91 we had the first overall pick and took Larry Johnson but since then not shit
"Yo Nico this is gonna sound crazy but you have to trade Luka to our biggest market since views are down. Oh don't worry we'll make sure you get the first pick in the draft, thanks!"
what’s funny is that if the nba was honest and didn’t make it blatantly obvious that they’re a bunch of actors & lie about everything, their views might’ve never dropped
@@susub-o7zprobably the dumbest thing I’ve read so far
That’s exactly what happened, lmao..
How fitting the The Dallas NBA and WNBA team win the lottery in the same year lmaoooo
Kenny. That coin was double sided brotha 😂
Nico knew something
Shit let’s wait before he ends up drafting ace bailey
Nico will trade cooper flagg to the warriors for Draymond green because "defense wins championships"😭😭
@@UniqueUserName123nah lmao we’re just playing. Nico got bailed the fuck out by the nba and I still hate his guts, as does most of the fan base id assume
they did the same thing with the Pels… Silver traded AD to Lakers and rewarded them Zion.
Wouldn’t stop talking about defense, it’s totally not a coincidence
10:00 man all that and now Tatum
When AD wanted out of NOLA, they also got the first pick. Chicago got d rose, knicks got Ewing. lol this is business
Also the Spurs getting the no.1 pick just when a generational big man is there that fits there culture and playbook perfectly, when they almost NEVER win the lottery.
I guess. But this time it’s as clear as day, you’d actually be trying to be dumb if you think this sht ain’t rigged😂
@@reaper_is_unavailable don’t forget Wemby already had a relationship with Tony Parker, and the Spurs are probably the only franchise with a legitimate French connection and fan base.
I remember a clip where the top rookies said they knew which team were going to draft them. Cosgrove made a video about it
@@iTROLLxTHExTROLLZThey always know, it isn't some top secret that has been exposed 😂
Players work out with these teams before drafts happens
its the most hornets thing ever to jump all of the bad teams to make top 4, in a top 3 heavy draft, and still get #4. we will just never be good i’m convinced
It’s not fair
Mavs Deserve It More Than Them Trash Hornets MAVS IN 4
I definitely agree lmao. From no AD, no Wemby, and now no Flagg. Never going to get that 1st pick.
Just be happy you’re not a wizards fan and dropped to 6
Yah can pontentially get Ace Bailey. Knowing the spurs they're probably going to draft edgecomb
Pistons going back to back5th pick after setting NBA records for losing tipped me off to some nefarious doings behind the scenes.
This is just egregious 😂
it's 50/50 for a team with the best odds to go to #5. Kenny literally has a running joke in 2k where the worst team never gets the #1 pick, you think that's rigged too?
Kenny pretending a coin flip was the difference between the Bulls getting the first pick
maybe not the first pick but we would’ve at least been top 4 if we won. our last pick in the top 5 was patrick williams who we are paying 18m/yr to be outplayed by rookie matas buzelis lmao us bulls fans are just starving brother lol
@@i.qena_it was always going to be Mavs. No matter what happened with that coin flip.
@@i.qena_ don’t worry you guys just have to wait until a Chicago kid becomes the number 1 prospect again…at that point it’ll be rigged in your favor 😊
From how I understand the actual NBA lottery balls work, that coin flip made the series of 4 numbers that won get assigned to the Mavericks rather than the Bulls. So, if the only thing that changed was the Bulls winning the flip, they would have also gotten the 1.
@@febriz6057it was always rigged for the mavs. If the mavs lost the coin flip (if there even is a coin flip) they would still be picking at one
As a jazz fan we had a 14% chance to win and we got the number 5 pick. Safe to say we ain’t ever gonna be good again
Detroit had this happen back to back years. NBA doesn’t care about us small market teams.
The NBA doesn’t even care about hiding it anymore.
You were just good with Donovan Mitchell a couple of years ago. You'll be fine
It’s rigged, Jazz got screwed AGAIN as always. NBA is a sham.
Get dukes big konneupal or Clayton jr they’ll all be solid pros or the pf out of South Carolina
As a blazers fan I understand and feel what you guys feel too small of a market for FA and too small for high picks unless we get a Giannis we are stuck
2011: Kyrie to Cavs after Bron was sent to South Beach
2012: Chris Paul gets shipped to LA and form Lob city and AD gets picked #1 to hornets
Zion to Pelicans after AD gets sent to LA to team up with Bron
Now Luka gets sent to LA and mavs get Cooper Flag
Never thought I’d become a ncaa fan but fuck the WWE NBA
That's not the reason the Bulls get Cooper Flagg, it was set in stone when they traded Luka to the Lakers
Sports have always been rigged to an extent, but it used to be a lot less obvious than this.
American sports lol
you were younger and naive but than you grow up
Nah the Ewing draft was the worst and most obvious, my man literally folded the knocks folder on tv
@@JustaguyIam24thank you someone actually knows history lmao
@@JustaguyIam24that was the most obvious one but at least the knicks were one of the worst 3 teams in basketball at that time but here the worst 3 teams fall out of the top 3 entirely
Kenny, I'm sorry but that "coin flip" is not how it works brother 😭 by that logic I should be mad that my Spurs got jumped because we had 4% higher chance than the Mavs
Kenny doesn't understand chaos theory. The coin flip being reversed creates a whole new draft with unknown results. Unless it was rigged, a completely different team would be #1. Or maybe the Mavs win it again, but they would be back to a 1.8% chance, so probably not.
@JakeKoenig Kenny envisions it more like a game of 3-card monte 😂
No. Based on the coin flip, the 4 balls selected came out to be Mavs when had the Bulls won the coin flip, those same 4 balls woulda came and it woulda been Bulls at #1. So yes, that is how it works. Sorry it is too complicated for you to understand.
@@JakeKoenigProof on chaos theory? If chaos theory is true then nothing you say can be true. It is just random and chaotic. From a brain made of random and chaotic materials.
I'm actually devastated by this. As a jazz fan, this actually just makes me hate the nba right now. We have slid back 3 straight years. This is twice in 10 years, that a team trades a top 10 guy too LA and get the number 1 overall. This has too be rigged. Kenny you didn't get it, because it wasn't rigged for you Kenny
Edit: it's so frustrating as a jazz fan, because our greatest player is a pedophile. Our greatest season is just a badge for mj. Our best modern player, is on a different team. Now we will likely draft a soild guy, who will be part of a team of soild guys
Hornets fan here. At least the Jazz have had icons & finals appearances. We have never met the 2nd round of the playoffs ever 😭. The league hates us bro
Yeah honestly I’m a Raptors fan I ain’t even that upset at moving down 2 spots but it’s who’s going top 3 for me that got me upset. I’m still watching my Raptors but I’m done with the league as a whole, shit just ain’t right for the teams like Jazz/Wizards/Hornets/Pelicans, the fact that all 4 teams fell out is just gross.
@Dawg476 the pels got zion, right after trading away ad, I don't feel bad for them. Honestly I think I'm just supporting Kenny and the guys, I don't care about this league until further notice
@alazkaalazka6087 I mean, my argument there, is that the jazz have been better ran. But still have nothing too show
@@matthewking7571honestly, the Pels and hornets are heavily mismanaged as is but to have antitanking rules ONLY work out for teams that already have a stacked roster seems fixed
I’ve been a hornets fan my whole life, and I haven’t watched my hornets win a single playoff series once. I was born in 2003. I’m a senior in college. Life is pain buzz buzz.
😂😂😂same brother
I've been a fan since the OG Hornets. This is just BS.
I live and work uptown. I walk 100 feet and catch a night game…this is just heartbreaking for the die-hards. I’m not a true die hard but like others have said, notably Jazz fans, what’s the point anymore? It doesn’t matter how bad we do we won’t get the pick(s) we need to be successful, why even try? The Hornets do turn a profit as a company…just barely…but I have to imagine these rich multi billion dollar owners have better things they can do with their money than pay a shitty NBA in a league that has no intention of throwing the little guy a bone. The team is “worth” 3.4 billion and they earned 84 million in profit last year. Like, isn’t there something better these owners can do with their 3.4 billion? 84 million is dog shit to them. The modern day draft does nothing for the bottom 10 or 15 teams (aside from whatever team gets the #1, of course). The small market teams need to ban together and demand a change. Or the NBA needs to cut the league in half and have only large market teams.
@@KG-tt3nl Hey buddy im guessing based off that statement you’re a little slooow… so I’ll go ahead and make sure you know that Ant went first in 2020. Hornets had the third pick. If you’re gonna be a dickhead atleast have a brain beforehand :)
03 babies
Kenny I find it hilarious that he was a fool for coming up with the whole pot a pot b hypothesis after first saying, "It's cool to see it like that but I can't," and then saying, "Okay, the bulls are nice, I live in the moment, I'm in pot b for now." I adore you, Kenny 😂😂

@@gauthzu5359Mavs would never make it bro.... With or without Kyrie they would've probably lose in the Play ins. Open your eyes
@@gauthzu5359 yeah i don't buy that it was rigged from the beginning for that reason. i think it's very possible the nba is trying to fix nico's mistake though, only because the mavs are on pace to lose hundreds of millions and it is ultimately a business. the nba themselves say the lottery is intended to "maintain competitive balance". you could argue that this is maintaining competitive balance. the term could be intentionally vague to avoid it being accused of "rigged".
@@gauthzu5359yeah what a script right?
To paraphrase the great American philosopher Marlo Stanfield, "we wanted it to be one way... but it's the other way"
It is, what it is
"American Philosopher Marlo Stanfield" 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah man, more people need to study the works of Marlo Stanfield.
That dude was a true visionary for business moves and life lessons.
He certainly saw beyond the Wire
This is a gross mischaracterization of how statistics work Kenny, if our bulls got an increase 0.1% chance at pick 1 doesn’t mean we would have gotten pick 1
This was so bad omg … Can’t be he actually thinks that?
Yes it does. Cause all you do is flip Mavs for Bulls and the 4 balls that came out are coded then for Bulls rather than Mavs. Since they would have swapped spots. You simpleton.
Whoever is in position X was getting the number 1 pick. It just happened to be Mavs since their name was attached to pick x rather than the bulls due to the coin flip. Simple logic that simpletons cannot seem to comprehend.
@ oh man…
They need to start televising them ping pong balls
There's a reason they don't lol
They do lol.
Need to tell people what their ping pong balls are prior to the draft. All that stuff happens behind the scenes and we just don’t know until after
If they want us to believe it is above board, and not rigged. They TOTALLY need the lottery process to be as transparent as possible.
@@rt_shaggysquid7519 they televised the selection process and fans still said it was rigged

it is wild that they dont actually pull the lottery balls anymore. Just walking up is wild and screams that they adjust things beforehand.
This shit would only be fair and transparent if they had the lottery balls in that air vat thing. Letting a computer do it, and hiding it behind closed doors, would only be done to make it easier to rig.

This was the first time that DAL moved up in the draft lottery. What usually happens was dropping or staying put, the most notable drops being in 1993 (1st pre-lottery, 4th afterwards) and 1994 (1st pre-lottery, 2nd afterwards). The biggest drop was in 1986 (3rd pre-lottery, 7th afterwards).
Before the lottery for the 2018 draft, DAL won the tiebreaker against ATL. What happened is that SAC went up to 2nd, but ATL was still 2 picks ahead of DAL.
In America, corruption is just blatant and full of gasslighting dichotomies.
Can’t wait for Nico Harrison to trade away Cooper flag for the shit I took yesterday 😁
Based on Nico’s past performance, they could probably get Kyle Kuzma for Flagg 💀
They wouldn't trade him he plays defense

I love that, at the start, you weren’t sure of something so you checked it. That takes humility whereas others may have talked out their *** and just spoken incorrectly. It also helps that your keyboard sounds fantastic
This is the first time in my 30+ years of NBA fandom I've seen such a strong percentage of the fan base livid at a draft lottery. Teams like Dallas and Philly getting rewarded for their past seasons feels so off putting and wrong. Just give every team an equal chance and have 1 seeds get the top players at this rate.
3:27 7-12 in lottery isn’t bad if a team knows how to scout and construct a roster properly. Unfortunately, the Bulls, I can’t guarantee that likelihood. 😂
Never understand why Kenny hesitates talking bout the bulls so much. Personally love the passion about his own team
Yeah it was nice, although him implying there was no conspiracy to get the hometown kid in Derrick Rose to the Bulls was interesting
Because outside of jordan and 3 years of drose the bulls have sucked
@@spiderdog07 why do NBA fans need to assume that every single unlikely thing that happens is a result of everything being rigged?
@@matt-tb6gtbecause if something had a small chance of happening but it still happens, and it’s extremely beneficial to the owner/party involved, then there’s a very high chance that it was rigged lol
@@matt-tb6gtcommon sense
You don’t understand how this works. Even if the Bulls won the coin flip that doesn’t mean they would have won the lottery.
The lottery has got to go. These teams that lose the most games year after year and can’t get the top one or two picks are just going to be in turmoil without any hope. Like you said at the end, yes they can still draft a star, but that’s just one more hurdle they do not need.
Well the lottery was created because teams used to just try their HARDEST to lose halfway through the season.... but it still happens, just slightly less ugly.
As a Jazz fan, dropping sucks but it is what is. Having a team that was in the finals last year and a team that won the lottery a couple of years ago jump up seems unfair.
This is what you get for tanking instead of trying to be competitive
perfect, maybe teams shouldn't be explicitly trying to lose the most games year after year. The Jazz held their All-Star caliber player on the bench every other game for 50 games just to lose, maybe they shouldn't be rewarded for that
Even as a Hornets fan, nah cause the Tankathons would be pure embarrassment. But I think maybe the 10th-14th odds should jump up to like 3rd or 4th max
Be cool to have Flagg renounce his draft declaration and stay at Duke one more year. Just to spite the Mavs org 😂
Lol, you're bugging.
He won’t but I really would like to see that

That would be funny but turning down generational wealth like that would be too stupid of a decision unfortunately. Understandably too.
The triple shot of Mavs getting Flagg, the Celtics blowing a 16-point lead, and Tatum getting hurt has made me numb to everything.
It is also beginning to feel like the NBA punishes teams for doing things right.
You’re really looking for sympathy as a Celtics fan right now? Mavs had massive injuries, lost their generational super star in the worst trade in sports history, went from Western Conference Champs to missing the playoffs completely and you think the Celtics are being treated unfairly?
The Mavericks have the top pick, which guarantees them nothing.

That's it. I am done watching basketball until the Jazz make the playoffs, which might be many years from now.
So you are just done watching the nba 😂
@@DSepalloyes I’m not trying to watch the same big selling teams win over and over again lmao
Being a jazz fan is painful 💔
😭😭😭😭😭😭
Crazy how the rockets never got the number one pick while having the worst record for years. But Dallas gets it first try.
Cheating used to be a crime...
Edit: but I always love when "shameless tanking teams" don't get rewarded
But none of the top 3 teams were a shameless tank. Utah, Charlotte and DC are legitimately terrible. This was a blatant fix. You just gave 3 teams outside the reasonable chance of winning the top 3 picks.
There's absolutely no way it was accidental. The giveaway is the Spurs. They're not going to use that pick. It's going to Milwaukee for Giannis with Sochan and the kid from Kentucky last year. That pick guarantees the trade.
Then, the 76ers. That's a blatant fix. That's a reset to give Embiid one more shot immediately.
@@RodmanTackleAdvisorCharlotte has a good team they're just injured
And the wizards don't deserve stars either because they're a terrible franchise
@@KG-tt3nl Charlotte is not a good team. I'm a lifelong Buzzhead. Lifelong. I even acknowledge we had another name but I'll never mention it out loud. LoL.
Injuries certainly hurt, but we don't have a truck number 2,3, or 4 on the roster. Melo is all alone. Just like poor Kemba before him. We desperately needed one of the 3 top guys.
If we're lucky, one drops, but it was highway robbery and it's always us they do it to. Every single time. Look that up. Our history with the lottery could win a fraud lawsuit against the NBA.
Agreed on Washington. They suck at basketball. Utah got hosed. They're the Charlotte of the West right now: Never get a top guy in the draft, not good enough to get a top star to come. Purgatory.
Sorry for the book.
@@KG-tt3nl My issue, bias excluded, is simple: The NBA is no longer attempting to hide it's draft corruption.
Dallas gets a free reset. They were about to have to pay Luka a record Supermax that Jaylen Brown would cry about. $450mil. Now, they get a similar guy for 1/20 the number. They also technically added a piece in Davis as Flagg would be a third star where Luka only had Kyrie.
San Antonio gets the pick it needs to get Giannis. That pick is literally what was holding up a trade. SA didn't have the odds to entice Milwaukee to gamble on a pre lottery trade. Now they do. Also, San Antonio and Milwaukee are very intertwined in the executive area. SA was the OG spot for half of the Bucks front office.
Philadelphia is the one that angers me. They don't deserve this pick. This is a free run back and the pick number gives it all away: 3. Look up the last 2 times Philly had the 3rd pick. Fultz and Okafor. This is a do over paid for by the Charlotte Hornets.
BTW, the Hornets are the only team currently being considered seriously for relocation. Seattle. The new Key Arena is insanely nice. Charlotte desperately needed that pick.
The NBA just blatantly exposed it's 5 year plan: Flagg in a big market(Utah, DC and Charlotte are all very small markets), San Antonio gets it's new dynasty right as Pop leaves, cementing his legacy, and Philadelphia gets one last shot to finish the Process.
The NFL just sighed in relief. Shady isn't the biggest draft conspiracy anymore and it only took 3 weeks. The NBA may have just created it's own demise here.
CBS released a video of a soft prediction of the top 3 picks 4 hours before the draft. They got all three right. And the odds are 6 trillion to one that this lottery plays out the way it did. A blatant fix. That's gonna hurt trust a lot.
Was refreshing for this one
Most undeserved lottery win possible man
The bookend bringing it back to the Bulls @ 11:40 was phenomenal. Just a great video fr Kenny
Worst thing for us Chicago fans is that we lost Flagg on a coin flip since we had the same odds as the Mavs 💔
Aint no coin flip😂, silver made the decision.
The worst thing is you got 0% chance from the start because it's now very clear why the Luka trade happened the way it happened
As a Mavs fan, I knew when I saw Adam Silver at the Mavs at Pistons game the very night before the trade.
Ball has lied for the first time ever
In the way the lottery is structured, you logic on the coin flip doesn’t really work. It just means you have higher chances of getting the first pick but once they choose the numbers all that logic doesn’t work anymore
I havent been this mad as a wizards fan in awhile
Saying that if Giddey misses that shot the Bulls get Copper Flagg is the most incorrect thing Kenny has ever said. The Bulls were never getting number one. It was rigged from the start. Like come on man don't be a mark for the league. They're hoping the fans are stupid enough to think this was ever a real chance.
Conspiracy theorists like you always believe they are infallible 😂. Youre on to nothing lil bro. This is just dumb luck and greedy owners
@@Cro66-m2g I don’t even like to push conspiracies but it ain’t like there isn’t a pattern…seems like whenever there’s a TOP prospect with real stakes they seem to fall to a place that’s beneficial for the NBA. If it happened once or twice that’s fair, but even people who don’t like conspiracies have to admit there is something there. Unless dumb luck only happens when a generational prospect is at stake…cause that’s how it looks like rn.
@@Cro66-m2gBillions are at stake. The Jazz never won the lottery and never will unless there is a draft class like last year's.
@@Volantredx of course he's a mark. This is literally what he does for his career. He'll blindly cling on and dismiss this as "chance" such buffoonery
ruclips.net/video/NCxgXS7EBI0/video.html literal footage of the balls being drawn
They didn't "win" this lottery. This was the biggest fix in sports since the Tyson/Paul "fight"
Nico harrison has fired all his security and decided to live outside after this
From hired security to securing the Flagg 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
even Vince McMahon was shocked by how they wrote the script
Growing up is learning that everything around you doesn't happen by ‘chance’ but is most likely orchestrated by those with a lot more money and power than you.
Spurs and Rockets will forever be the Mavericks' lifetime archnemeses.
Kobe gave Nico a blessing from above

Kenny that coin flip had nothing to do with it brother 😭
This lottery system doesnt work man, all 3 of these teams with a top 3 pick couldve made the playoffs next season with the 10th pick. Wizards were one of the worst teams Ive ever seen this season, in spite of some talented young guys, and they fall to 6. Disgusting stuff man.
Means you can tank just to help your chances, but you can't bank on it
@@nanao1103nfl doesn’t have a lottery and has zero issues.
@nanao1103 but thats stupid because no FAs or players requesting a trade are going to choose a bottom team, drafting generational talent is the only way out of that cycle. These top 3 teams all had major injuries and tanked instead of trying to get healthy for a play-in position. Its the rich getting richer and the poor staying poor in NBA terms
@@bciwanted2 well the reward for failure is better than es at a higher lottery pick. It's better than the sport directly rewarding failure like in the NFL. These leagues are the only place that happens
i’m in tears man… wiz fans for life🎉
Really crazy we couldn't even get top 3
As a jazz fan it’s just dumb bc in the 40+ years the draft has existed, we haven’t moved up even one time. Never had the first pick. Watching San Antonio regularly move up and mavs get cooper makes me sick. Legit don’t know if I can keep watching the nba knowing how blatantly it’s rigged. People can be mad we tanked this year and this is “what we get” but what’s the alternative? We don’t get FA and the last two years we competed and get the 9th pick and get Cody Williams and Taylor Hendricks
6:31 kenny tryna keep his NBA ties
Glad someone sees it
9:20 do you mean income taxes? That would make more sense than sales tax lmao
Bucks will get the #1 pick next season after they trade Giannis
bro if you don't think it's rigged at this point you're just coping this is the equivalent of insider trading
