概要

It’s Fun Friday, so we’re talking basketball.


The Utah Jazz were fined $500,000 for “tanking” — not playing their starters late in games as they position themselves for a better NBA draft pick. But is that really ruining the integrity of the league… or just smart business under the current rules?


Today I break down how the NBA draft lottery works, why teams have incentives to lose, and why the Jazz might actually be acting logically. If the system rewards worse records, can you really blame teams for optimizing?


I also share an idea from the Professional Women’s Hockey League that could fix tanking altogether — by rewarding wins after playoff elimination instead of losses.


Just a guy in a truck talking NBA strategy, draft reform, and why sometimes the rules — not the teams — are the real problem.
