They'd likely do some sort of revised lottery - it would still give preference to non-playoff teams, but shouldn't give them as much preference since they just got top draft picks once.
To me, the bigger question is: will all these great young players actually be in the next draft? If the owners get their way and the age limit is raised, most of the listed players will become ineligible, meaning it won't be as strong a draft as the experts predict. I am already hoping for Barnes! A future lineup with Valanciunus, Davis, Barnes, DeRozan... all we need is a legit starting pass-first PG!Read my blog, The Picket Fence.

I read one possibility of how they might do the draft (can't remember where) is to take the team records over the last 3 years and do it that way. The Raptors still wouldn't get the first pick, but I believe they'd be in the top 5, again.Read my blog, The Picket Fence. Guaranteed to make you think or your money back!

I don't like this ranking, I rather hope we play next season and earn last place.

*EDIT: I take that back, Cleveland is thrown under the bus on this one, and in a way so are we and all other teams that have made dramatic changes in the last 3 years.The Baltic Beast is unstoppable!

The NHL draft following the lockout was based on playoff appearances over the last three years, as well as first-overall picks. Had nothing to do with average wins. Basically, each team started with 3 balls, but lost one for every playoff appearance or first-overall selection during the previous three seasons.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2005_NHL_Entry_Draft
Here's how the same system implemented in the NBA would work:
1 ball: Boston, Chicago, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami, Cleveland, Philadelphia, San Antonio, Lakers, Dallas, Oklahoma, Denver, Portland, Phoenix, Utah, Memphis, New Orleans
2 balls: New York, Indiana, Charlotte, Milwaukee, Detroit, Washington, Houston, Clippers
3 balls: Toronto, New Jersey, Minnesota, Sacramento, Golden State

Edit: And Cleveland would get zero, as well, since they have two playoff appearances and a #1 pick.Last edited by Tim W.; Fri Jun 24, 2011, 04:21 PM.Read my blog, The Picket Fence. Guaranteed to make you think or your money back!
