You're paying for a whole ticket. Not four quarters and then a DNP-rest for your best player in the final five minutes.⁣
⁣
That's the core issue with tanking. Some teams are actually doing a decent job of hiding it — competitive game, fun to watch, and then boom, somebody gets sat and the outcome is decided.⁣
⁣
The lottery reform ideas floating around are interesting. A minimum win floor of 25 makes sense. A five-team equal-odds pool at the bottom makes sense. But the real goal is simple: stop incentivizing losing. Whatever system gets us there, I'm for it. #shorts
