I mean Atlanta won last year. Nobody said nuttin

There was nothing to orchestrate. Nobody really gives a fuck about anyone in that draft really except perhaps Castle. Look at these stiffs

1. Hawks draft Zaccharie Risacher (JL Bourg-en-Bresse)
2. Wizards draft Alex Sarr (Perth)
3. Rockets draft Reed Sheppard (Kentucky)
4. Spurs draft Stephon Castle (Connecticut)
5. Pistons draft Ron Holland II (G League Ignite)
6. Hornets draft Tidjane Salaun (Cholet Basket)
7. Trail Blazers draft Donovan Clingan (Connecticut)
8. Spurs draft Rob Dillingham (Kentucky) — Traded to Timberwolves
9. Grizzlies draft Zach Edey (Purdue)
10. Jazz draft Cody Williams (Colorado)

Trivia for the day.

--------------

The most recent instance of both an NBA and a WNBA team from the same city holding the No. 1 overall picks in their respective drafts occurred in 2025. In that year, the Dallas Mavericks secured the top pick in the NBA Draft and are expected to select Duke standout Cooper Flagg. Simultaneously, the Dallas Wings won the WNBA Draft Lottery and selected UConn star Paige Bueckers with the first overall pick. 

Prior to this, the only other occurrence was in 2003 when the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Cleveland Rockers both held the No. 1 picks. The Cavaliers famously selected LeBron James, while the Rockers chose LaToya Thomas. Unfortunately, the Rockers folded after that season.

Thus, Dallas in 2025 became only the second city in history to achieve this rare dual No. 1 draft pick milestone.

SGA was drafted by the Clippers. There was a pick swap during the draft, the Hornets just had to make the pick for the Clips because the way the NBA tracks draft trades is incredibly stupid. 

Kobes rights were also traded on draft day to the Lakers, so he wasn't exactly their target.  That team is just cursed to always fail forever and make the wrong decisions. 

I think the point was that those superstar players were available at the time Charlotte was on the clock, so yes you can draft that level of talent without winning the draft lottery. 
 

that they chose to make trades instead of just selecting and keeping those players is on them, not the nba or its process.

Deserved? For fucking what?  You idiots lucked into a injury season from Robinson that got you Duncan...then got handed Wemby, and got Cassell too and think you "deserved" Flagg?

Spurs for some reason be getting gifted shit like they the Lakers.
