Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

Kinda funny how people are going crazy about a 1.8% chance event actually happening, yet will go to Vegas and put a big bet on a number on the roulette table.

Statistically, a 1-in-50 chance happens pretty often. Mavs have 1 championship in about 45 years of trying. And now our second #1 draft pick.

A few other similar probabilities:

1. Developing rheumatoid arthritis (lifetime): 1 in 28 (Arthritis Foundation)
   
2. Being a victim of identity theft (annual): 1 in 20
   
3. Dying in a car accident (lifetime): 1 in 107
   
4. Dying from a drug overdose (lifetime): 1 in 70
   
5. Getting audited by the IRS (annual): 1 in 161
   
6. Developing Alzheimer’s disease (lifetime): 1 in 10
   
7. Having your home catch fire (lifetime): 1 in 3 
   
8. Being born with a birth defect (lifetime): 1 in 33
   
9. Contracting the flu (annual): 1 in 10
   

I bet you're fun at parties. 

I was psyched about Cooper, but after realizing I've had more than half that list happen to me and yet I've never personally won the lottery is a major buzzkill.
