Re: OKC is a disgrace
Here is another rule change that would make sense prevent the long years of tanking. A team can't have a top 5 pick after the 3rd consecutive year.

Lol this is a joke. Small market team loses their talent cause no one wants to play for them, so let's not even let them get more talent through the draft.
OKC is an embarrassment. Teams like them deserve to lose their talent. Beyond pathetic

Re: OKC is a disgrace
I’ve never seen a spanking of this magnitude in all my years watching the NBA.
Numbers rule the universe.

...except that they have plenty of picks that they could package to at least be respectable in the current season. They are choosing to be this trash, and it is a terrible look for the league.
...Because they know that you need to acquire superstars to be a contender in the nba. Only way you get that is through the draft or when a superstar forces his way to your team. We already know one of those things won't happen for OKC.
Why the hell would they not tank?????

I have some fun here, mainly on the trade board but realgm shouldn't ever be taken to seriously.

So that they can at least be respectable? Houston never tanked when Morey was the GM there and they became a championship contender.

This is a terrible look for the NBA, and its got to be demoralizing for the players. They will never live this down.

+1
I also think there should have been a rule since the very start that a team can not select no.1 picks in consecutive years.
Cavs getting no.1 3 times in 4 years was insane. Philly got rewarded for their tanking with back to back no.1s.
Sampson-Olajuwon back to back. Shaq-Webber!

Houston became a contender with Harden but was never really that likely to win a championship until they got CP3. Who they signed as a free agent...
OKC's best chance of winning the championship is by tanking to get superstars. There is no obligation to be "respectable".

Re: OKC is a disgrace
Such disgusting blatant tanking is a disgrace to the sport. Losing by 73 points? Wow.

Re: OKC is a disgrace
Loosing by 20+ is considered blowout... loosing by 30 is a lack of effort... how do you manage to loose by 70+... I don't think you could loose by that much in a video game... embarrassing.

Contracting okc should be on the table. Purposely tanking goes against the spirit of even basic competition

Re: OKC is a disgrace
Losing by 70 points should disqualify you from the draft
