i'll just drop this here, apropos of nothing, but, to me, the answer to "is the league front office rigging the draft lottery?" very much has a giant lit neon sign pointing to Hanlon's Razor (a.k.a. "they're not evil, they're just incompetent").
they bungle almost everything else that they're nominally in charge of; expecting them to successfully pull off the rigging of a draft lottery is a very big leap of logic to me.
(now, i also think the league should scrap the lottery and adopt the Gold Plan, because it really would just resolve so many problems, but that's neither here nor there.)
