The draft lottery in the NHL amd NBA is so fucking stupid. The

it's to prevent intentionally losing to get the higher pick, you retard
tanking isn't fun to watch for paying fans so they want to remove the incentive

>The draft is so fucking stupid.

FTFY, you filthy commie fuck.

>>75617951
That's retarded

Why doesn't the best team get to pick first?

I thought this was America

>>75617905
>The team with the worst record should get the first pick no if ands or butts.
Are you from Hongcouver?

Butt devastated Aves fan detected

Someone seems mad the Flyers got the 2nd pick in a 2 pick draft

>>75617905

Freaking commie wants to reward failure.

>>75617951
That's retarded.

>>75617905
How about just not have a draft?
There is no point for having one

>>75618915
Retard thread? Retard thread.

>>75619001
There's too much tanking in the NBA
Without a draft there would be no reason to tank

>>75619044
that's why they have the lottery

>>75617951
That's retarded

>>75617951
>be amerifat
>watch sports team
>not now if they're losing on purpose or by accident

Unlike football, 1 player can change a franchise in basketball. Without a draft lottery there would be intense competitions for the worst record in the league, and we would see D-league rosters the last few months of the season.

>>75617951
It doesn't work

Look at the 76ers, they just ended up tanking for longer because of shit luck in the lottery

>>75617973
Draft is literally a communist practice. Look at the football market in Europe, it's much more capitalist.

>>75619557
>>75619103
How can you say that when there's already a horrendously high level of tanking already?
Just get rid of the whole damn thing

Tanking is absolutely disgusting

>>75619658
How many years have the 76ers been tanking? just because teams do it doesn't mean it works.

>>75618915
This. It should all be straight free agency in all sports. Possibly with no salary caps.

Imagine NFL with free agency only. It'd be a way better sport to watch.

>>75620548
But teams still do it
How can you sell a product as being an entertainment if half the teams aren't trying to win?

>>75620614
Quite possibly the dumbest statement in this already pretty retarded thread.

>>75622182
Again there is no legitimate argument for why professional leagues should keep having drafts

>>75623084
To improve parity. No one wants to watch the same fucking teams win over and over for decades. Teams shouldn't be able to buy championships.

>>75622182
>I like watching retards struggle instead of letting good teams flourish and ultimately push the bad teams to do better without any dumb rules like a draft holding them all back.

>>75617951
>>it's to prevent intentionally losing
>teams still lose to 'better' their chance from 10% to 15%

it doesnt fucking work

>>75623326
They can already do that even with the salary cap
This does nothing

>it's an everyone gets a trophy in america episode

How you enjoying your socialims, cucks?

>>75626520
But the draft prevents it to a degree. Everyone knows players want to sign for good teams, they want to win. New players would just automatically sign with teams that are already good, who would be stacked for eternity.

That's what happens in European soccer, which is why their leagues are retarded and the same teams win every year. God knows why anyone even watches that shit, it's pointless.
