$ETH is about to lower its energy consumption by ~99.5%, during a period of rampant inflation no less, and the general public is not talking about it? (We are so early?)
@jespvg Yikes. Those splits are pretty bad. Any promotion of AB would have to mean Suggs was going out in a high value trade. Would Paolo/Suggs for Giannis framework lead to a better starting 5? IDK. But seems like a discussion.
@JonesOnTheNBA I mean, you fill a stadium with all of the most die-hard fans from a whole continent each time you go there, as opposed to here, where each city gets their own shows. That said, football culture leads to great crowds over there, regardless.
@FmrTankCommandr don't have stats, but anecdotally, feels like AB and TDS have both elevated their games when given starters minutes. Like going with AB and seeing what happens.
@jvd0730@JonesOnTheNBA Moral of the story is you need to limit the incentive to tank. You can never fully remove it, unless you go totally flat odds or abolish draft completely.
@jvd0730@JonesOnTheNBA It's not the 8th seed, it's the loser of the 7v8 game, as I understand it. Tanking that game you'd still then have to win the next game against 9v10 winner to make playoffs. Risky for 1 ball. But yeah on the whole there will always be some level of gamesmanship.
@SixthManShow The benefits of tanking out of the play-in are insane. 3X the odds for finishing 11th instead of 10th. Gonna be an awful look when teams are bypassing the playoffs on purpose.
.@hv_mtl@Gabrielesm1@AdamWeitsman Can anyone explain the lack of activation windows for HV-MTL? I was an active user of HV-MTL that missed the window. Can we get another window to join the evo2 fun? Feeling left outside the party right now.
