The Cleveland Cavaliers are at it again. On Tuesday evening, the Cavs won the 2014 NBA Draft lottery, earning their second No. 1 pick in as many years. Cleveland general manager David Griffin reacted accordingly.
As did ESPN's Bill Simmons.
The full draft results can be found here. The Philadelphia 76ers wound up with the No. 2 pick and the Milwaukee Bucks took home the No. 3 selection.
The Twittersphere exploded during the announcement, which saw the Celtics and Lakers draw the Nos. 6 and 7 spots, respectively.

THE LEAGUE HAS CLEARLY FIXED EVERYTHING IN FAVOR OF THE CAVS (except for regular games and playoffs. it's an oddly limited conspiracy)

Once again, a team that genuinely tried to make the playoffs won the lottery.

The Cavs are gonna have picked first overall more times in the last 4 years than the Knicks have picked at all. I hate the draft.

I was getting so close to convincing myself that James Young or Doug McDermott would be a steal too. Oh well.

Congratulations to Cleveland. Try not to draft another Anthony Bennett, ok?
