Love the NBA and think they do it very well, but I don’t think we need it.
Reckon we’ve more or less killed tanking already, especially since the abolition of the priority pick.
If you introduce the lottery you take a step towards removing equalization and the cyclical nature of the ladder. And I think that’d be a real shame.
I just cant see one of our teams having the same reaction as the Pels ... they draft players far closer to being ready.
The AFL have actually uped the disincentive of tanking by simply making other streams of player acquisition far more accessible. FA's and 2nd level players etc.
