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).

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 Smile

I love my sources, and I love it even more when I'm right ...  Wink


And one more thing I love about this draft: the 1st pick from Suns, Knicks, Bucks and Blazers can go anywhere between #1 and #9 ...

... guess that doesn't happen too often !  Laughing

Just simulated the playoffs.  It does appear that the finals winner goes last, all other lottery teams go by record.  That sucks.
