Boston only had 10 balls.
The lottery order starts from 14 and Boston is picked right away.
How is that possible when Boston had less than 1% of the balls in the bin.
Would it not have increased the odds that Toronto would have been selected to pick #14 based on odds?
I'm even more confused now than ever about the lottery.

Each team had a combination of 4 numbers. Toronto had 200 different combinations and Boston only had 10
