I disagree that is great for basketball. I don't even think it is good for basketball. I hate that they take for years to get higher draft picks. And since it "worked", now you see more teams tanking. Awful for the sport.

I like the way Europe does soccer. If you are one of the bottom teams, you move down a division. If you are one of the top teams from the lower divisions, you move up. It makes the games at the end of the season mean something. Not this purposeful losing so you can move up in the draft.

Sixers looked like shit last night, and were definitely outplayed...two games, one loss, down, 3 more wins to go (round one, anyway)...

Trust the Process (not a Sixers fan, but I ain't seeing any real power in the east right now) but...Toronto could shock the world and go to finals...!

First of all, shame on the Milwaukee Bucks for losing to Boston! Despite missing their best player, Kyrie Irving, and Gordan Hayward, they still ended up beating them!

Tonight they will be facing the Sixers and I will probably watch some of it. I loved watching Ben Simmons when he played with LSU, so let's see what he does tonight.
