Should the Wizards be forced to give up the number one pick because Bam dropped 83 on them this year?
Bam dropping 83 was one of the most impressive, weird, and unexpected events of this past year. Bam is now going to remembered as having one of the single greatest scoring performances of all time. That game will forever be talked about in the lore of the NBA - how Bam Adebayo is a better scorer than even Kobe Bryant.
The league is so extremely pissed about tanking that they are literally changing the rules, that they decide to give some of the worst tank jobs we've seen in the history of the NBA the top picks in a great draft. The Wizards at #1 and the Jazz who couldn't manage to put any of the their top 5 players on the court at #2.
The league says it doesn't want tanking, and then openly rewards tanking and wonders why teams tank. Should the league consider having the Wizards and Jazz move down below teams in bad situations such as the Grizzlies or Bulls at #3 and #4? Why is the league openly rewarding tanking still?
