    The lottery really needs to go. I’m surprised there’s as much support for it as there is considering how blatant the league is with fixing it.

    They should’ve been picking 1st, 3rd, 2nd, 5th, and 15th. They’ll probably tank the rest of the year but lose the 1st ovr to the Blazers or something cause the league has an obsession with rewarding bad teams for chasing off their stars

      I think they need to change the lottery but not get ride of it

      Here’s what I would do if I was in charge:
      - A team can’t be in the lottery more than three years in a row
      - You can trade your lottery pick in the 4th year and the team you trade the pick to can still be in the lottery but you can’t, so if you land the 1st overall pick in the 4th year, you get knocked down to the 16th pick OR you can trade the 1st overall pick to another team for players

      That would force a team like Detroit to get more creative in their team-building strategy, they would be forced to make trades, sign guys in free agency etc. in order to build out a proper roster

      That’s my take
