Ich meine, Cooper Flagg ist ein neuer Balance-Mann. Niko mag das nicht. Ja, Nike-Niko. Das ist ein guter Punkt. Ich bin nur verrückt. Was denkst du hier, TK?

I can't disagree. I mean, again, watching it on playback last night, shout out to everybody that joined us there. When we found out who the top four teams were, it was obviously the Dallas Mavericks, the Spurs, the Sixers, and then, yeah, the Hornets. And it was like, oh my God, if three of these four teams win this number one pick, it's... It's rigged, conspiracy, oh my god.

I'm talking about those teams, the first three, not the Hornets, right? Okay, that would make sort of sense, being one of the worst teams there all season long. But these other teams jumping up and getting it. And it's the Mavs of all of them at 1.8% chance. It's like, what, the fourth lowest odds ever to win the number one pick. So it's happened before. That's the thing.

I mean, it's just fun to say, ah, god damn, it's rigged, oh my god. You know, they had a handshake deal. We'll get you, Luca. And then we'll give you number one. Es ist lustig, es ist lustig, es tut mir leid, aber ich finde es lustig, für einen Sport, ich meine alle Sporte, aber alles, Gambling das, Gambling das, Anzüge, Zahlen, sobald der Draft passiert, vergessen alle, wie Anzüge funktionieren.

Und es ist so, nein, sobald dein Team mit dem besten Prozent, welches nur 14 Prozent ist, weil sie nur diese Anzüge leveln. Sie versuchen, Tanking zu verhindern. Es funktioniert nicht. It's not working, but at some point maybe it should, because it's like, how many years in a row here have these bad teams not got the number one pick? So it does nothing to really lean into being terribly bad.

Denkst du dann, wie Trey gesagt hat, dass sie die Draftlotterie reformieren sollten? Weil das jetzt so viele Jahre lang ist. Die schlechteste Mannschaft in der Liga mit dem schlechtesten overall record.

never wins the number one pick since we've gone and smoothed the lottery odds and usually it was the Pistons two years in a row having the worst record falling to five and that was the Jazz this year who followed five and then these other teams that also fell do you think they should change it to try and like obviously if the point is you're bad we want to

Help your chances to be more competitive the next year by giving you the better players or the better chances at it? Or do you think it's actually working in a weird way? Like, if the whole point is to deter tanking, well then I guess you could say this is actually a perfect example. Like, well don't do it then, because you're not guaranteed by any means to get one of the better picks.
