Title: Draft order ? two mysteroius questions ... Post by: CelticsGM on June 30, 2005, 11:16:43 AM 1) there have been speculations, the draft order will be announced as early as tomorrow (contrary what's on the calendar page): is that true
2) there have also been rumors that the draft order is NOT built from the regular season record but from playoff results as well (with the winner picking last): I really hope that's NOT true !!! So please clarify if it's done like in the NBA: starting from worst record in reg season all the way to best record in reg season, with tied records decided through coin flip (or similar). Title: Draft order ? two mysteroius questions ... Post by: NetsGM on June 30, 2005, 11:18:32 AM 1) Draft order is not set until after the playoffs. Whoever told you that is full of it.
2) Draft order is determined exactly like it is in the nba. The first year, the Timberwolves had the 2nd best record in the league, got bounced in the first round, and had the 2nd last pick of the first round. You need to get better sources :) Title: Draft order ? two mysteroius questions ...
