Stern/Silver need to come up with a remedy for this bullsh*t. Its disgraceful. I like the upcoming draft but some of these potential future star players will end up average and a few of these franchises will still suck
I'm sick of this tanking sh*t in the NBA

the cheapest and easiest way to become relevant again is through the draft

Deal with it. Unless your remedy produces more superstars, just shut up and be grateful that your team ain't one of the eternal losers anymore
This is complete bullshyt.

I'll ignore the thread jack, for now.
Back to the thread though. I think everyone can agree that the Lakers should be awarded the 1st pick. LWO didn't choose to tank, the tank chose us.

When being the 7th, 8th, 9th (fighting for the playoffs and just missing out) are the worst position you can end a season in then your sport has a serious problem
I don't know the solution, but battling for the last playoffs spots should be encouraged/rewarded.
Of course you'll have a team or two trying to tank every year but damn this sh*t is a lifestyle now.. its a league within a league which isn't good. when we sucked for all those years, we just sucked straight up and down. All theses Danny Ainge moves, MCW dnps, etc is outta control.

how is this any different than it ever was?
you aint nostradamus nikka...the draft is always like this...some pan out...most dont...
tanking never works anyway....
Cleveland and Milwaukee and Utah ain't gettin a star via free agency or trade.
What star did they get via the draft? LeBron James and he left. You can draft em but you can't make em stay.

I agree i've always been against tanking. In fact I root for teams who tank to lose in the lottery
