Re: Draft position

Nope. Champ doesn't pick last unless they have the best record. For example, Sac had the last pick in the 2002 draft and I don't recall any rings being delivered there.

Strict order of finish for the regular season outside the lottery.

i don't think so.  the champ picks last most definitely.  but the order will
be followed on how they finished the regular season standings.  so even if the
celts "win" over the pacers, they will still have the 15th pick overall
regardless.

  I don't remember how it works ... if the Celts, through some miracle (or
  the sudden death of John Carroll) beat the Pacers, do they have to draft
  after the Pacers and every other team that lost in the first round? The
  NBA champ picks last, right?
