http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle/post/_/id/86940/the-nbas-possible-solution-for-tanking-good-bye-to-the-lottery-hello-to-the-wheel Not sure if this would ever be realistic enough to happen, but I like it (for the most part). It would eliminate tanking completely while balancing out the draft system perfectly. The problems mentioned could hurt its chances of ever happening (some fan bases may check out during a stretch of bad picks) but overall it makes more sense to me than the current system. |

That's a very different idea, but I don't see how it would work without either barring draft pick trading, or encouraging it even more. I think under the current system they should move to a 3 year window of suckitude to determine the top of the draft, which would let the teams that need the players stay near the top, but not provide a direct incentive to tank in a given season. I have also always been a fan of this plan: http://www.sloansportsconference.com/?p=5496 |
