I get the whole talk of conspiracies but I look at it a little different. Consider:

Historically, the worst team hasn't had a great history of landing the top pick. If they had gotten it, I would have expected to hear some grumblings about Stern helping out Jordan.

Could Washington have won again for the second time in a few years without there being some talk?

Could Cleveland win it back to back with no talk of conspiracies after there was talk last year?

What would the talk have been if the Nets had won right before moving into their new arena and while still being in the running for Dwight Howard?

My opinion is if there was a conspiracy at work, Brooklyn would have won it. Having Anthony Davis go to a bad team in small market New Orleans doesn't help the league at all and probably does more harm when he leaves at the first chance.
