If any team deserves some lottery luck, it's the Cavs.

NOPE, NOPE, NOPE..... Just a Bad Take.... Cavs overdue for Bad Luck in Lottery!!

Guess you are not aware of Cavs lottery history

Cleveland has made the No. 1 pick five times in the NBA Draft lottery era, which began in 1985. Every time that has happened, the Cavs emerged as an Eastern Conference contender within a few seasons.

That started in 1986, when Cleveland traded with the Clippers and drafted North Carolina center Brad Daugherty with the No. 1 pick. The Cavs then grabbed Ron Harper seven picks later at No. 8 and traded for Mark Price, who was drafted by the Mavericks with the first pick in the second round.

That core helped the Cavs become a playoff regular from the late 1980s to mid-1990s. Cleveland made the playoffs eight times from 1987-96, including a trip to the 1992 Eastern Conference finals.

The Cavs won the lottery again in 2003, drafting LeBron James from St. Vincent-St. Mary's High School. The rest is history. James had two stints with the Cavs and took the team to the NBA Finals five times in 10 playoff appearances, including a championship run in 2016.

A run of three No. 1 picks in four seasons this decade made that second stint with James possible.

The Cavs traded for the Clippers' 2011 first-round pick during the regular season, and that landed at No. 1 overall. Cleveland selected Kyrie Irving, who later emerged as James' wing man. Irving was a four-time All-Star before being shipped to Boston in 2017.

In 2013, the Cavs bumped up two spots to win the NBA Draft lottery in 2013 and drafted UNLV forward Anthony Bennett with the No. 1 pick. Cleveland won the lottery one more time in 2014, with a 1.70 percent chance. The Cavs jumped up eight spots to No. 1 and took Andrew Wiggins.

    Yeah, and my apologies, didn't mean to go as hard as I did. As someone with ties to the region it's a bit of a sore spot for me. Point being, you have to realize how "I saw a bunch of people in caddie

    Just becuase it looks like his eyes are closed doesn’t mean he’s sleeping. Very racist.

  • The best Zion destination for the league and everyone involved would be Dallas to play with Luka and KP. This is not an argument, and I am not taking calls at this time. Thank you sirs and I wish you

Is it wrong that I am outwardly rooting against the Knicks to win the lottery? We are going to get Zion media overload 24/7 regardless, but if he ends up in NY it is going to be nauseating. I will end up hating the guy just because of the overexposure, and I don't want to do that. 

You forgot another very important reason.

fuck the Knicks

                            Cleveland Cavaliers.....

i'd most prefer the knicks, hawks or bulls win the lottery, but so long as it's not a western conference team i'm good. 

WTF boring and undeserved? lol Ill just be thrilled moving up. Wolves have been in the lotto like 21 times, and have never moved up and chosen higher than they were slated

RIP "Will the Pelicans trade AD for Zion?" Stories

They still might, they are a very poorly run organization.

wait, is it still rigged?

NBA cabal checked Twitter during the commercial break and realized it was too obvious.  #ReverseRigged 

Those who think it’s rigged look like idiots, as usual.
