I have yet to hear a valid argument why giving everyone the same chance in the lottery is not the best solution to minimize tanking. www.nytimes.com/athletic/692...
Can NBA’s new proposals fix tanking? Is it even worth it for the league to try?

Has any other NBA exec had such a stretch of strikeouts and home runs as with the #Mavs? The Brunson own-goal, the tank for Lively, the Gafford and Washington trades, the disaster of the Dončić trade. Strikeouts and home runs only. And has any team been destroyed so quickly coming off the Finals?
While Kidd says no one will feel bad for the Dallas Mavericks, @thompsonscribe.bsky.social writes that people should feel bad for the fans.
"No fan base deserves the bludgeoning Mavs faithful are enduring."

Mavericks fans deserve NBA’s empathy amid all this relentless cruelty
Basketball lovers across the league should stand in unison with Dallas. At least be delicate and patient. Mavs loyalists need grace.

Chill #Cavs fans, chill. "The Shot" never happens if Jordan didn't brick a free throw with 5 seconds left in Game 4, which would have clinched the series. It happens to the best of them, even the G.O.A.T.

Ted Lasso had 2 aces with Jamie Tartt and Dani Rojas, but Kenny's got 4 aces now with the #Cavs. When Donovan said they don't win this game last year, that's what he means. No chance we win this game last year with Donovan scoring 11 and him and Darius combining for less than 30.
Right now, Cleveland is the league’s best team.
It's passed all the tests, knocking off the NBA’s hottest team, the Oklahoma City Thunder, 129-122, in what lived up to the hype as the league’s biggest game of the season to date.
