Lottery Prediction

Anyone out there remember October 20, 2004? It was the night that the Red Sox beat the Yankees in Game 7 of the ALCS, forever ending the failures of the Sox. May 22, 2007 may go down as the same type of night for Celtics fans. Since Len Bias dies hours after the Celtics took him with the No. 2 pick in the 1986 Draft, the fortunes of the Celtics gone from mystical dynasty to laughable loser. But tonight is the night it gets turned around. Here is my predicted order of finish for the lottery, to be aired tonight at 8:30 pm on ESPN. There is a Mock Draft to go with it. 14. Los Angeles Clippers (.5% chance at No. 1 pick) -- Jeff Green, PF, Georgetown 13. New Orleans Hornets (.6%) -- Al Thornton, PF, Florida State 12. Philadelphia 76ers(.7%) -- Spencer Hawes, C, Washington 11. Atlanta Hawks (from Indiana Pacers; .8%) -- Acie Law IV, PG, Texas A&M 10. Sacramento Kings (1.8%) -- Joakim Noah, PF, Florida 9. Chicago Bulls (from New York Knicks; 1.9%) -- Roy Hibbert, C, Georgetown 8. Charlotte Bobcats (1.9%) -- Brandon Wright, PF, North Carolina 7. Portland TrailBlazers (5.3%) -- Al Horford, PF, Florida 6. Seattle Sonics (8.8%) -- Yi Jianlian, PF, China 5. Phoenix Suns (from Atlanta Hawks; 11.95) -- Mike Conley Jr., PG, Ohio State 4. Milwaukee Bucks (15.6%) -- Julian Wright, SF, Kansas 3. Memphis Grizzlies (25%) -- Corey Brewer, SF, Florida 2. Minnesota Timberwolves (5.3%) -- Kevin Durant, SF, Texas 1. Boston Celtics (19.9%) -- Greg Oden, C, Ohio State
