by Shawn Siegel
The 2008 NBA Draft Lottery
was held Tuesday night, May 20th. The Bulls were the big winner, moving up to
the 1st despite owning less than 2% of the ping pong balls. Seattle was the
biggest loser as they fall down to the 5th spot.. a frontcourt of Kevin Durant
and Michael Beasley will no longer be possible.
