There's no chance we out tank blatant tankers.

That's like Orlando saying they're resting perfectly healthy Evan Fournier and Jonothan Simmons so Hezonja and Iwundu can get more burn. I honestly don't see how that's even allowed in the NBA without heavy fines being given out left and right.

We win this game by like 8 and expect Fournier have close to a career high.

What can nba do about it? If they ban rest, they will list them as sick/ill and nobody can prove anything . Player can say he feels dizzy and he will skip game

I don't even know why the Kings bothered to announce it. They are obviously tanking, but they had nothing to gain by letting every other potential competitor for the top pick know that they are doing it.

I'm not worried about tanking.

The Magic have had bad lotto luck and I would rather try and win some games as they will be around the top of the lotto regardless.

Same here with Spectrum Orlando.

It's probably just a typo although I am getting a black screen for the pre-game.

He def. slipped up and said it, but not sure of the context.

Maybe, if the Magic tank for the next 5 years, they may win an all-star.

Randolph isn't active tonight. They are taking this tanking seriously.

I have Spectrum and we have a blank screen.

Kings are camping in our paint. Surprisingly, Bogdan is doing most of playmaking.
