Clarkson gets punked by GS every time.
What is the tie breaker system for the 2 pick? Gotta love those Suns!!
It's a coin flip.
And if history means anything we want to lose it...
I personally wish there was a Franchise Tag in the NBA applying to teams who drafted a certain star.
These guys can live and travel anywhere they want in the offseason, but it stinks to watch a star you actually draft bolt pre-prime to collude with other stars.
Obviously the tag would have large cost-escalation incentives for the player, but either way, if a team is willing to pay, they can keep a player.
I'm pretty sure if there's a tie in records, the two teams just split the odds, the average of the odds of the 2nd spot and 3rd spot. So it would be as if both were at 2.5 rather than 2 and 3.What is the tie breaker system for the 2 pick? Gotta love those Suns!!
Hmm I'm sure if the new changes to the lottery would also include changes to the tie breakers. But don't see it anywhere so probably the same process & 2 is still better than 3 before the lottery to prevent them getting bumped as far by teams at 3-14. Since C & S split to season series I think it comes down to a raffle type drawing or a coin flip not sure which to determine who has the 2 or 3 on paper before the lottery drawing and with the top 3 teams having the same chance at 1 this time I would think that means nothing other than the advantage of not being able to fall worse than 6 instead of 7 with the 3rd overall pick before the lottery.I'm pretty sure if there's a tie in records, the two teams just split the odds, the average of the odds of the 2nd spot and 3rd spot.

The only thing is if there's not an even split possible, like with an odd number of combinations, that last combination is decided by coin flip.
Yep thats what I meant, well said1st-3rd worst records all get 140 ping pong ball combinations out of 1000. The order for 2nd & 3rd worst only matters if both are NOT drawn into the top 4. So it would either be the difference between 5th and 6th or 6th and 7th.
