Twitter reacts hilariously after Knicks fall in the lottery

The NBA draft lottery is a time of hope for teams and fans alike. For the New York Knicks faithful, however, it turned sour very quickly, as they went from having the second-best odds at landing No. 1 to falling to the fourth pick in the draft. And, as expected, Twitter enjoyed the moment.

First team that falls back is the Knicks.

Even though it’s May 19th, the Knicks are still losing.

Only these Knicks could lose on a night they’re not playing

Only saving grace, Knicks fans: Jim Dolan is also sad.

Knicks get 4th pick. Dolan blames Irving Bierman.

Good news Knicks fans: we’ll be back in the lottery very soon

The team that ended up with the second pick? The Los Angeles Lakers. And Kobe Bryant, of course, had something to say about it.

We played like crap all season so it’s only right we get the #2 pick HA #lakerluck #goodday
