NBA Draft Lottery Results

The NBA Draft Lottery, much anticipated in the Charlotte community, finally came, and to many peoples surprise the best team did not win the first pick. This brings up many more concerns by fans that the NBA rigs the lottery, and some even think they are rigging the playoffs. Instead the first pick went to a team that just lost their superstar so he could go pursue a ring in a larger market. Sound familiar? The past two winners of the lottery both gained such "luck" after losing their franchise players. The Cleveland Cavaliers and now the lowly New Orleans Hornets. Thats right, New Orleans is back on the map as they get a chance to pick the consensus number top player in the draft, Anthony Davis out of Kentucky. This guy is looks to me to be a  great pro as long as he can bulk up a bit and maintain that quickness. But enough about the Hornets below is the rest of the picking order for the 2012 NBA Draft.
