The draft lottery in the NHL amd NBA is so fucking stupid. The team with the worst record should get the first pick no if ands or butts. A team that finished 5th from last should not get the first pick.
Its just a way to get more money its disgusting
it's to prevent intentionally losing to get the higher pick, you retard
tanking isn't fun to watch for paying fans so they want to remove the incentive
>The draft is so fucking stupid.
FTFY, you filthy commie fuck.
That's retarded
Why doesn't the best team get to pick first?
I thought this was America
>The team with the worst record should get the first pick no if ands or butts.
Are you from Hongcouver?
Butt devastated Aves fan detected
Someone seems mad the Flyers got the 2nd pick in a 2 pick draft
Freaking commie wants to reward failure.
That's retarded.
How about just not have a draft?
There is no point for having one
Retard thread? Retard thread.
There's too much tanking in the NBA
Without a draft there would be no reason to tank
that's why they have the lottery
That's retarded
>be amerifat
>watch sports team
>not now if they're losing on purpose or by accident

Unlike football, 1 player can change a franchise in basketball. Without a draft lottery there would be intense competitions for the worst record in the league, and we would see D-league rosters the last few months of the season.
It doesn't work
Look at the 76ers, they just ended up tanking for longer because of shit luck in the lottery
Draft is literally a communist practice. Look at the football market in Europe, it's much more capitalist.
How can you say that when there's already a horrendously high level of tanking already?
Just get rid of the whole damn thing
Tanking is absolutely disgusting
How many years have the 76ers been tanking? just because teams do it doesn't mean it works.
This. It should all be straight free agency in all sports. Possibly with no salary caps.
Imagine NFL with free agency only. It'd be a way better sport to watch.
But teams still do it
How can you sell a product as being an entertainment if half the teams aren't trying to win?
Quite possibly the dumbest statement in this already pretty retarded thread.
Again there is no legitimate argument for why professional leagues should keep having drafts
To improve parity. No one wants to watch the same fucking teams win over and over for decades. Teams shouldn't be able to buy championships.
>I like watching retards struggle instead of letting good teams flourish and ultimately push the bad teams to do better without any dumb rules like a draft holding them all back.
>>it's to prevent intentionally losing
>teams still lose to 'better' their chance from 10% to 15%
it doesnt fucking work
They can already do that even with the salary cap
This does nothing
>it's an everyone gets a trophy in america episode
How you enjoying your socialims, cucks?
But the draft prevents it to a degree. Everyone knows players want to sign for good teams, they want to win. New players would just automatically sign with teams that are already good, who would be stacked for eternity.
That's what happens in European soccer, which is why their leagues are retarded and the same teams win every year. God knows why anyone even watches that shit, it's pointless.
