The worldly style, the No. 1 pick signing is an NBA compensation mechanism, and the ownership of the No. 1 pick sign is closely related to James

In the just-concluded NBA lottery ceremony, the Mavericks finally won the No. 1 pick with a 1.8% chance, becoming the biggest winner.

Before the Mavericks won the No. 1 pick, many media predicted that the Mavericks would win the No. 1 pick, because the NBA's No. 1 pick has become a compensation mechanism.

In 2019, Anthony Davis traded to the Lakers, and then the Pelicans won the No. 1 pick with a low probability.

Now, Doncic trades to the Lakers, so the Mavericks have no reason not to draw the No. 1 pick.

seems to be a mathematical problem, but in fact it is a human relationship.

The ownership of the No. 1 pick seems to be closely related to James. In the summer of 2010, James suddenly announced through live broadcast that he would leave the Cavaliers and join the Heat. For the Cavaliers, it was just falling to the bottom. The Cavaliers' record in the 2010-2011 season plummeted, and in 2011 they drew the No. 1 pick as they wished.

Interestingly, the Cavaliers won the No. 1 pick not their own high probability, but the low probability from the Clippers' trading.

In 2012, the No. 1 pick belonged to the Pelicans, whose boss had no bosses entrusted by the league. In order to enable the Pelicans to find a new boss smoothly, this is reasonable and very coincidental. The No. 1 pick in 2013 and 2014 was still compensated to the Cavaliers. It seemed to be the No. 1 pick, but it was actually a fragment of James.

In the offseason in 2014, the Cavaliers exchanged 2 No. 1 picks for Love, and together with another No. 1 pick, Irving, attracted James' return, formed the Big Three, and finally won one championship.

In 2019, Anthony Davis was traded to the Lakers, and then the Pelicans got a No. 1 pick and chose Zion Williams, a new star, and a new player was replaced by an old player.

In 2025, Doncic was traded to the Lakers, and then the Mavericks also got the No. 1 pick. They lost a star and got a new star.

So, the next team that wants to rebuild should know how to do it. Giving their star to the Lakers can get at least one No. 1 pick, and no matter how you calculate it, it won’t lose.

The Nets should be a little regretful at this time, why not give Durant to the Lakers?

The Jazz also regretted it at this time. One Gobert and the other Mitchell seemed to have changed so many times, it would be better to send one to the Lakers.

Warriors would have thought that if they had known to sign Klay Thompson first and then exchange it for the Lakers, they would have won the No. 1 pick.

There is another episode in this year's lottery, that is, the Mavericks and the Bulls have the same record, and they decide who is ahead and who is behind by tossing coins. As a result, the Mavericks won the lottery and finally won the No. 1 pick.

On the surface, the Bulls actually have no hope of winning the No. 1 pick, but in fact, the Bulls lost 1 No. 1 pick because they threw a coin and lost.

Of course, some netizens also said that it seems that the Bulls can't get the No. 1 pick because they lost the coin. In fact, even if the Bulls win the coin, the Mavericks will still win the No. 1 pick, because they should be compensated if they send Doncic away.
