But again, what are they actually seeing? Stuff being put in a hopper, and one being taken out. Do they get to examine everything going into the hopper? The hopper itself? Remember the bent card for Ewing’s draft, was that an accident or a rig? Why didn’t any of the witnesses yell bloody murder? And there have been team presidents complaining about lottery results in the past.
The results could be a coincidence, that’s the fun part about random events they actually can break the “desired” way, but there sure are a lot of these highly convenient coincidences.
Spurs better team. Could give a damn less whether they “won” the series or not.
