Biggest NBA draft lottery winners, losers and unknownsSeven years later, with Davis hovering over the lottery in a very different way, Alvin Gentry, the Pelicans' coach and drawing room representative, threw all decorum out the window when the fourth pingpong ball drawn completed a four-number combination that belonged to New Orleans.

• After the lottery ended, Gentry approached the dozen reporters in the room and offered another wink-wink apology."Sorry, guys," he said."Not really." And then Gentry revealed the ultimate plot twist: The tie Gentry wore Tuesday was the same one Cohen wore in each of those three lottery wins. Griffin had phoned Cohen and asked for a good-luck charm in the lead-up to the lottery, he told ESPN.com in the aftermath Tuesday. Cohen scoffed at the idea that any trinket could win the favor of the lottery gods. Griffin asked if he might please send the tie. Cohen did. Griffin passed it on to Gentry.

Between Griffin, Cohen and Cohen's tie, I'm starting to believe in some real mystical stuff. I'm a little scared. I also worry that in excising all three, the Cavaliers will suffer years of self-inflicted bad luck. • Also discussed, per sources: stationing a"replay official" at the scorer's table who could make some determinations without stopping play, and flag other plays right away so that referees would not have to huddle up and decide whether to trigger review. Thumbs up!

ZachLowe_NBA I have a rock that keeps away tigers.

ZachLowe_NBA Does the tie have a picture of Taylor Hall on it ?

ZachLowe_NBA So, what you’re telling us is that in a few years Zion will be elsewhere in the league? Note that each of those 1 picks aren’t with the Cavs anymore. While the tie wins the lottery it dooms the team.

ZachLowe_NBA bscheely Blame falls on Dan again lol

ZachLowe_NBA I need that tie. I'll buy that tie for.....$30

ZachLowe_NBA Obviously cuz of Melo's Luck StayMe7o BelieveinMe7o

ZachLowe_NBA The new odds were supposed to “stop tanking” but teams that legitimately started tanking end up with the first picks. Meanwhile teams that were just legitimately bad fall back even further. Makes total sense

ZachLowe_NBA 3 No. 1 picks, one lucky title, cavs org in shambles after bron bron

ZachLowe_NBA I almost wish it was rigged now instead of burying Zion with the Pelicans just like AD was!
