Imagine being in a game 7 of the Conference Semifinals and winning the NBA draft lottery.
While the best team in the league that season finishes second in that same lottery.
Who did the Knicks get out of this draft?

NBA GMs were really stupid in the 1980s. The NBA basically created the Cleveland Cavs teams in the early 1990s by allowing the Cavs to buy 4 lottery picks and the giving them extra first round picks.

The Cavs stole Brad Dougherty from the Sixers for Roy Hinson and cash. The 76ers don't get enough blame for trading the first pick in a decent draft for Roy freaking Hinson. Brad Dougherty and Charles Barkley become a really good duo in Philly.
They bought the lottery pick from the league that became Ron Harper.
They drafted Mark Price with the extra first round pick the NBA gave them for their owner being dumb.

The only mistake the Cavs made was trading rookie Kevin Johnson for Larry Nance.
