Marc Stein: Jazz-Warriors discuss pre-Lottery trade (Source says trade "likely")

Posted this in another thread but thought maybe you guys could help out here...

That said, can someone find out how often a team slotted 8th-14th has jumped into the top 3? Last year Cleveland did with their pick from the Clips. In 2010, it did not happen. From 2009 and before, I can't find the info needed.

In the past 11 yrs it has happened 3 times. Which oddly enough means it happened 27% of the time
 
regardless of how many coins are flipped, the chances are always 50%. Each coin flip counts as a separate instance and has no effect on the previous (or next) coin flip.

A better thing to try would be to find one of these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-sided_die (call a number) and if you get that number, that's the chances we have at getting our pick.

--note: since I'm a D&D nerd and happen to have one of these at my desk at work, I tried it. Called a 2, got a 3. Tried it again, called a 4, got a 4! *We're totally getting that pick!*

You never took statistics in school, did you?
 
You better be, Hantlers. Ill be unbelievably miffed if you get perma-banned.
