I hacked bob to tweet that.

I looked at how it's done here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlLLO5l ... e=youtu.be and seeing the combination of the balls drawn will tell us nothing per se.

It's all about that other guy telling which team A-H is paired with that combination or just saying "it's one of those teams, hence a 2nd-phase drawn is needed".

Then again, there is another chance the specific team A-H is revealed when they do the broadcasted countdown to unveil the results.

PWC messed up the Oscars (or some other award show) a few years back, maybe we'll have another controversy

Friday result:

1. Unnamed placeholder
2. Unnamed placeholder
3. Unnamed placeholder

There is a 1% chance this could actually happen.

1/100 chance buffalo chooses 10th in the draft.

Yikes....

How great Boston gets penalized and I’m the one who actually gets fucked. Especially after the fact when my hopes were all up because of improper info.

This is fucked and makes me sick.

So upsetting. makes me not even fucking care about this shit now lmao

Not the place to discuss this but this will still work out for you. The CC is finalizing the order.

I’m just frustrated Shoalzie. I’m sorry. This was huge for my team and now it feels like I’ve had my heart ripped out of my chest . Big difference between byfield and stutzle imo :/.

Tried to make efforts to improve my team all year too while Boston did dick all and it just happens to work out for him still. Like...fuck me lol

Edit: anyways. Do what y’all do. Was all excited to start talking trades and shit, but I’m stepping away for a bit again as I’m demoralized. Got enough of that right now in real life without this adding to it. See everyone when the draft starts.

Oh boo hoo for you. At least you still get one of the elite forwards. Try losing 3 spots and going straight to the 3rd tier of prospects.

Inappropriate, hawks.

Not saying that’s easy to swallow. At least your slot was the same the entire night. Imagine thinking you’re going to draft byfield after watching the lottery and then all of a sudden you’re not. You go from being quite “high” to being kicked in the nuts.

Fwiw I know disappointment. I’ve gambled away a pick mid season that ended up being 7-8th predraft and won the lottery...

Point here is thet I was of the understanding that I was LA in the lottery all of last night and up until 30 minutes ago when this bomb was dropped on me. That’s why this is so tough to take. Not only that but Boston wasn’t even active at all the entire season. Suppose to be penalized for that and instead it works out for that team to get the 2nd overall instead.

Anyways. Whatever.

You better wait for an announcement before making assumptions because this isn't true.

I’m not blaming anyone. I’m just saying that’s the way it would currently end without any change from the CC. Is what it is *shrug*. Not like I won’t be active once everything is up and going. I’m just demoralized because I’ve gone from like a 15 hour high to a feeling of being thrown off a cliff. It’s not easy.

Has no relevance to the league, but I’ve also had a most awful two weeks at work and this brought me out of that funk ever so slightly before the rug got pulled out from under me so to speak. Once again, I know there’s a decision to be made, but that’s just how I currently feel. There’s no animosity towards anyone or anything like that.

Bleh

Inappropriate, hawks.

Your trade offers are inappropriate.

[dave1959]

All these posts will be removed...stop commenting here!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Da_Hawks]

Excellent. Hide the evidence.

[Shoalzie]

Posts have been moved.

We'll announce something soon. What complicates this situation is Boston winning the 2nd pick in the lottery but they can't win a spot in the lottery because of GP. It's being sorted out. The only reason this a big deal was the fact I had the standings wrong last night.

no way this happens. Rules are clear about that:
"If the 1st round pick is still owned by the offending GM, his team will not be eligible to advance in the draft order as a result of the lottery"
