NBA Lottery will always be Such a huge disparity because of the talent difference between the #1 overall pick and the #6 or so overall pick unless you are a great scout and get Garnett or Love at #5 or whatever it was.. NBA drafting is damn near an exact science. How many second round picks last more than 3 years. Not like that in the NFL unless it is a Luck/ Manning type of year. I still can't believe they got that freakin lucky. Those 2 may go down as the 2 greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. Sure you can debate it but even if its 2 of the top 15, it is crazy odds. Everyone is raving about the Cowboys offensive line; not looking it up but I beleive all of those were mid to late 1st round picks.
I think that is why the NFL draft is so popular. I love it because every pick in the first round or 2 mattters. You expect your first 2 or 3 round picks to be starters. If my NBA team is picking #24, who cares. The Pacers have done a ridiculous job of drafting. Getting George at #11 or so...Same with Granger. That almost never happens.
