The NBA should create a single elimination tournament for every team that doesn’t make the playoffs. Winner gets the No. 1 pick, runner up No. 2, and so on. It would be entertaining and mean you wouldn’t want your team to be too bad! https://t.co/XJgQ1qS0WV

Also gameplay shouldn’t stop for fouls. Refs should just keep track of them and at the end of each quarter a player from both teams gets to shoot them all
Make the games 40 minutes.
8 x 82 / 48 =13.667 That’s the equivalent number of games you would reduce the schedule by. Without breaking arena leases.
Works for college. Works for international. Works for the WNBA.
AND.
If you looking at tv and streaming ratings, the less the actual playing time for a televised game, the bigger the ratings.
Ie, the less time fans have to focus on a game, the more they enjoy watching it on tv

How about this for eliminating taking: Take all the teams that miss the playoffs and create a single-elimination tournament... where the winner gets the No. 1 pick.... runner up No. 2 pick... etc.
The Wizards trading for Trae Young + AD and benching them both for the rest of the season is a blatant sign that the NBA Lottery system has failed to stop tanking.
I came up with a solution to fix it:
@ytdubyr Your pick would be better than all the teams that made the playoffs. Right now, 20 teams make the playoffs, including the play-in. So you just do this for the worst 10 teams for the top 10 picks.
Step 1. Buy rival and create a media mega-giant
Step 2. Sell media mega-giant to another rival and create mega, mega media-giant
Step 3. Pocket $800 million

I’m on week five of trying to vibe code a replacement for some dumb saas that we use and it’s so incredibly frustrating that I’m slowly realizing it’s actually a quite complex and thoughtful piece of software.
