People's opinion on Cade aside, saying Detroit will never get the 1st overall pick which insinuates the NBA is conspiring against the Pistons is just an emotional response, and not based in reality.
It was basically a 50/50 chance the Pistons got the #5 pick. #5 was far the most likely outcome.
I get it Pistons fans are sick of the team being terrible, but shenanigans or conspiracies aren't the reasons why the team sucks.
I'm not upset or think its a conspiracy we got the 5th pick. I'm just lost at the odds of us getting the 5th pick two years in a row.
I'm on the side of the aisle that think we should trade the pick for Ingram anyway. If we got the 1st overall pick I think we be overvaluing an offer for Ingram. But the 5th pick in this draft for Ingram is perfect value.
When you say "I'm done with the NBA" implies its an anger driven statement.
But I don't care either way, many Pistons fans are hurt with the results. Which I get, I'm just not personally phased by it this year.
My original response to you was just to point out that Detroit has indeed gotten a #1 overall pick recently. So they have beaten the odds (and the alleged conspiracies)
But don't take my posts as trying to diminish your right to vent. I'm just making observations
