I don't think the Bulls can complain. Not only making a play off berth this year, they also have the number 2 overall while the Raptors got the first pick.
So who are the prospects this year? As I understand there isn't terribly much on the table.

the NBA draft is done by lottery?
i don't like that, seems kind of stupid
NHL does the same thing, no?

Yea, they do a lottery. The more worse a team's season finish is, the greater chance of getting a first round pick

"more worse" 
do you mean the more likely to get a higher pick, b/c it wuld make no sense really to not give everyone a first rounder

If a team finishes with a bad record, it is more likely to get the overall pick in round 1. In this case, the Raptors won it and they are one of the worst teams in the NBA.
