The Athletic NBA Daily
Are the Pistons a Contender? + East Play In Mania | Slam N Jam

I don't know how teams are going to do it.

The Athletic NBA Daily
Are the Pistons a Contender? + East Play In Mania | Slam N Jam

but like if you think you're just gonna get rid of teams that are losing or you're just like almost rewarding like the kings for just like being completely incompetent because they're not tanking they're just incompetent and so like that's okay i really think that it really should come down to like penalizing ownership because most of these like really really bad teams are the teams that have bad owners if you look at sacramento like i think you should find more ways to penalize ownership

then you should, these guys that are actually trying to form good teams.

And to me, like the flattening of the odds is not discouraging teams.

The Athletic NBA Daily
Are the Pistons a Contender? + East Play In Mania | Slam N Jam

What it is, it's it encouraged teams like, oh, even if we're 10th, we're ninth, we still have a chance.

The Athletic NBA Daily

So we should just lose.

The Athletic NBA Daily
Are the Pistons a Contender? + East Play In Mania | Slam N Jam

yeah to me you keep the play in you keep the old odds where it's like so stacked toward like the the worst four or five teams and then you make it minuscule to the rest where it's like it's probably not worth it for us we should just probably compete and try to get the play in yeah no to me that makes more sense where it's like

you tank, you feel a little bit, these worst four teams can feel secure.

The Athletic NBA Daily
