Would a tournament between the worst 8 teams for the #1 pick work?

Might fix the buyout issue to some degree as well

I hate the buyouts.

For the goal of parity, the worst team is suppose to get the best pick

Losers should never be rewarded for losing

4/17/21 7:42pm

Parity is the whole point. Otherwise, just give the #1 pick to the Champion

I don’t like incentivizing teams 17-23 to be worse

Maybe, but it’d stop the buyout. Cleveland would have kept Drummond for

I agree that the current system that gives so much incentive to teams to tank is

my proposal to eliminate tanking is to just get rid of the draft. Let guys sign

This is the worst idea of all-time.

Imagine the Jazz not getting Donovan

Donovan was not a high draft pick and not projected to be a star coming out. So

Flatten the odds and reverse the order.

But you would have teams not want 8th or 7th place in the playoffs

That already happens.

Timing is a huge problem. When do you have it? During the playoffs, then it

Do it after the finals the week before the draft. 8 teams. You could get it done

In parallel like the NIT

4/17/21 7:43pm

maybe its not enough games to keep interest of the fan bases. How about take

cwilke1

4/17/21 7:58pm

Nope single elimination. Every fan base involved would lose their minds

macdizzle

the fans would care a lot in a Lebron year. In a year with no clear-cut stars
