NBA Draft Lottery Tonight

The NBA Draft Lottery will commence tonight, so we will know what team has what pick number. Then the real analyzing can begin. The teams with the best odds at getting the number one pick are the teams that did the worst this year, which makes the chances for the Boston Celtics much better than, say, the Clippers or Kings. The Memphis Grizzlies and Milwaukee Bucks, along with the Celtics, have the best chances of getting the number one pick.

Most people believe that Greg Oden and Kevin Durant have the best possibility of going No. 1, but once we know the order of the teams, the speculation will take into account the specific needs of each lottery team.

If you got Ohio State Buckeyes basketball tickets for games last year, you probably got to see the overall number one pick in the draft, regardless of what team gets the number one ball in the lottery. As of tonight, people will be one step closer to buying NBA basketball tickets at StubHub.com to see Greg Oden, but for now we still have to refer to him as a Buckeye. Besides, he has another three years of college left to complete.
