One of the most unfair parts of Technocrat Silver’s relentless drive towards the middle. I hate the Thunder and I want to keep hating them with changes that make sense, not ones driven by fucking Quickbooks.
Hey Mr Presti, when you trade for Giannis to stop Wemby you’re gonna need to throw in an extra first if you want us to take on Chet’s horrific contract.
bob costas, i don’t expect this tweet to reach you but i pray that it does—
we need you to bring the heat with a game 7 intro monologue
summon the juice
heal this nation
It used to be the bottom 5 teams that tanked.
People complained about Philly, so the odds were flattened, resulting in the bottom 10 teams tanking.
Now the “solution” is to incentivize teams 7~16 to tank, but hey, the bottom five teams will try harder? Yay?
I think i speak for all NBA Fans when i say making impulsive decisions to change lottery and divert attention during one of more compelling conference finals in recent memory is great leadership personified
This is the single dumbest idea in the history of the NBA. It does nothing to address the issue at hand and further kills any possible route to team building, beyond the issue of retroactively punishing teams. When will escape this reign of technocratic terror?
@Ralph_MasonJr@kylewilkentdb The original tweet was about traded picks and retroactively screwing Memphis. You said it was one of the dumbest things you’ve seen in your life. Now you’re talking about something completely different than the original tweet
If I were a Memphis fan I would quit the NBA. Changing the rules 3 months after they traded their best player to retroactively devalue the pick they acquired is dirty pool.
The NBA's Board of Governors vote passed 29-1 -- with the Memphis Grizzlies as the lone vote against the new anti-tanking lottery reform, sources tell ESPN.
