70% of the league should tank for a top 5 pick.

Maybe, but not us. We have a team full of champions.


Actually Lebron looks really good this year...some say better than ever. 85% of the league should tank.

I don't think the Hawks go anywhere with Trae as a centerpiece - he can obviously score, but he's so bad defensively and turns the ball over a ton.

Actually, I dont see anybody beating the Lakers this year. Everybody should tank.

I think we have a shot. We have 54 point man Fred Vanvleet and Spicy P on the team. I think it goes 6 games. Fred closes it out for us with some clutch buckets. :nod:

Even a team like the Clippers.....Kawhi's never won anything without a complete team around him. Clippers supporting cast isnt up to snuff and they have no picks left to trade. They should blow it up now and get top 5 picks for George and Kawhi. Start from scratch and see if they can do better.

They're losers so that's not surprising. They're not like us, we have championship pedigree.

Pacers are an even better example. 5th seed every year. Sabonis ain't no star. They'll never win anything...2nd round exit team at best...pure treadmill. They'd have far more upside if they blow it up for an all out tank job.

Blazers too. “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results.” Lillard/McCollum arent good enough to get it done.....they;ve been treadmilling for years now. No more upside left on that roster. Blow it up baby. Tank.

Maybe they can trade Lillard or Mccollum to us if they go that route.

Why would we want Lillard/McCollum...they've already proven to be not good enough. F*** those guys. Championship or die trying baby.

I dont see a point in what the Rockets are doing either. Trying to win with John Wall and bunch of recycled rejects. They need to blow it up and tank.

Why are you talking about all these random teams? As far as I'm concerned we're a top 10 team in the league. We can't tank like those teams. We have too many elite players. Tanking is for idiots.

Popovich and the Spurs. WTF are they doing? 13-10 (5th in the West) with Derozan as their main guy? Blow it up and tank already.

Yeah so many crazy teams out there. Presti's a good GM but I dont know what theyre doing either. SGA aint gonna get it done on his own. Tank for top 5 pick already. Add real star talent with a high lottery pick....whats the point in being a 9th seed?

Actually the Knicks are our direct competitors. We're both two elite Atlantic division rivals fighting for that 8th seed.
