All I’ve said is it eliminates tanking. I’m not saying it fixes everything.

But I think you vastly overestimate how many guys would use it to their advantage. It might happen a couple times a decade. I’ll take that over a terrible product a couple times a night.

And we’re seeing blatant taking advantage of the current system that’s visible every night. Is it possible you get a guy that waits a year to enter the draft? Sure, but they are costing themselves money and they can’t just force there way to any team…it’s the current #1 pick or the next years pick. I ...

Maybe guard Mylhailuk

Some good Maluach stuff tonight

They were accidentally decent after trading Mitchell and Gobert and missed the boat on tanking till the end of the year…they’ve finally realized how to tank…they are basically sitting anyone that would be in their top 7 right now…Bailey the only guy tonight that is probably in their rotation next yea ...

The Jazz defense is atrocious…they can score at times, but we should get shots whenever we want.

Was basically a tie game, lost my feed and we were up 20 when I got it back haha

But that’s not true…The Wheel completely eliminates tanking…doesn’t just make it harder and less advantageous. It makes it impossible. What about convincing $$$ a prospect to stay one more year at college or abroad in order to play for the Lakers instead of Washington? The team can do it through the ...

They could get it this year with the current rules. Not really. That isn't their pick; that's another team's pick that has been traded to them. The draft lottery system in no way is bestowing the #1 pick on OKC nor is there any way for it to do so. It gives it to another team, which in this case ...

They could get it this year with the current rules.

Didn't we just barely lose the first game against OKC? I seem to remember us also beating them once. I know we got blown out by them also but that was when we had a bunch of players hurt. I think we could have some real fun with them as long as we get our guys back healthy by then. We did beat okc ...

That’s fine…I would rather not reward the same incompetent franchises over and over and force the best prospects to start their careers on terribly run franchises that will inevitably ruin the start of their careers. Make teams be competent if they want to win and don’t give them handouts. I guess th ...

We’ve been in 7th since November and have 3-4 games cushion from 6 and 8. We aren’t leaving 7 haha…just gotta make sure we win that first play-in game. I think we’d lose, but I think we can scare the Spurs. I don’t think we’d put up much of a fight against OKC.

Since you won't answer my question, I did my own research: The Lottery Wheel: A radical, complete and long-overdue fix for NBA tanking https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/the-lottery-wheel-a-radical-complete-and-long-overdue-fix-for-nba-tanking-163635615.html My bad Bone…I had started typing up a r ...

Yep, tanking violations should impact lottery balls…also if you’re gonna stick with a similar structure for the lottery, the big changes I’d make would be you can’t move up in consecutive years and you’re limited to moving up a certain amount of picks…so if you win the lottery from say the 14th lotte ...

I’m good with changes…this just seems to be taking our current model and going further…at that point just go to the wheel.

I don’t know why this is such a point of emphasis with the NBA. In the NFL the draft literally goes in order of record. It seems like it’s just a pet peave of Silver. Much harder to track in the nfl…it’s an issue because the nba by far has the biggest problem with teams tanking. I don’t really like ...

And I’m probably too high for the percentages on Lakers or any other team.
