2016 NBA DRAFT LOTTERY RESULTS!

The NBA Draft Lottery has arrived!

It's one of the stupidest greatest days of the NBA season. All the shitty teams from the previous NBA season get together under one roof and talk about how much they sucked ass last season. That and there are also some ping pong balls that "supposedly" land a certain way and give all these crappy teams some sense of false hope coming in the form of being relevant again.

Every year there are fourteen teams that get a chance at landing what is known as "NBA GOLD". The #1 pick in the upcoming draft where you can hopefully land a potential NBA superstar who will bring tons of titles to your town. The whole thing is just one giant gamble. Just because your team lands the #1 pick, that doesn't exactly mean you've struck gold (Greg Oden, Anthony Bennett, Andrea Bargnani, and more to name a few). You can also get a really good player with the second (Kevin Durant), fourth (Chris Paul), sixth (Damian Lillard), and thirteenth pick (Kobe Bryant), but everyone is obsessed with that #1 PICK BABY! WOOOOOO HOOOOOO! 

Anyway, which team is holding "NBA GOLD" this year and who are the top prospects that we should get to know before the NBA Draft arrives in a few weeks? Glad you asked.....
