My thoughts and Solution to the "Tanking Problem" The real problem isn't that Utah is tanking, it's that they have to out-tank teams that keep tanking. Once you get 3 top picks in 5 years you should be removed from the lottery. Go figure it out and let other teams rebuild

Charles Barkley shares his idea on how to fix tanking: "Teams have just been tanking for 3 months. Every team who does not make the playoffs should get 1 ball. You can't improve your chances losing. Every team gets 1 ball. That is the fair way to do it. Only with our stupid NBA crap. Come on man. Just give everybody 1 ball and that would stop tanking"

most prediction markets have been measuring the wrong thing. not wrong as in broken, wrong as in incomplete. they measure IF you were right. YES or NO. not HOW right you were. this problem has existed since 2015. and Trepa is trying to fix it. here's how. 🧵

Bulls are taking on expiring contracts and draft picks, downgrading the roster to lose games, and aiming for a top pick in the draft. this is what tanking looks like in practice. it is not pretty, and that is the point.

Bad teams don’t tank because they are dying to lose for six months straight, alienate fans and create bad habits for their young players. They do it because they have to – the NBA just doesn’t give bad teams a lot of avenues to get better. And a number of the “tanking solutions” that have been proposed would actually make it even HARDER for bad teams to climb out of the bottom of the standings. Flatten the lottery odds? So you’re proposing giving good teams a *better* chance to get the best rookies and bad teams a *worse* chance than they have now? Yeah, that’s bad for the league, bad for fans, bad for players. The NBA needs to focus on creating more pathways to improve, so tanking isn’t the only way - and in my opinion that means holding bad owners accountable too.

"This, everybody knew was a great draft. This is where you just say, 'Hey, we're not tanking, we're just not going to be a competitive team this year...' You take the hit, you get a top 5 pick, and you turn things around next year." – DP on the #Pacers and the NBA Draft

I don't know if this will make the final video, but I find it very odd how quickly the NBA has found "solutions" to the tanking problem

Daytona 500 winning crew chief Billy Scott when asked if there's a way to fix mass fuel saving on superspeedways: "I doubt there's a fix to it, because we're just gonna figure out the next way to exploit it. ... It'd be like asking you to change how chess is played." Denny Hamlin adds that there IS a way to fix it, but it involves NASCAR increasing speeds to make handling matter more and spread the field out. "As long as (NASCAR's) insurance company's okay with it, you're gonna have to speed up the cars." Suggested letting teams come up with a superspeedway package and trying it out at the Clash next year. (h/t Alan Cavanna )

US President Trump: "The problem with the Tomahawk, a lot of people don't know it, it'll take a minimum of six months, usually a year, to learn how to use them. They're highly complex. So the only way the Tomahawk is gonna be shoot is as if we shoot it, and we're not gonna do that... It takes a year of intense training to learn how to use it. We know how to use it, and we're not gonna be teaching other people."
