Bro’s doing everything BUT announcing the Clippers/Kawhi punishment 😭

next NBA team accused of tanking shall be forced to trade for Lavine and Derozen

Can’t wait to see what incredibly stupid shit they come up with

I have absolutely no confidence that anything Silver does will be effective.

Heres comes another tournament!

As a fan of a team with no picks of our own until 2030 I’m actually excited to see what he does cause without a doubt it’s gonna be hilarious

They’re gonna fuck the lottery up and make it even worse over something that isn’t that big of an issue

Just punish the few teams that get overly blatant about it and carry on

We all know tanking has been going on for a long time, but the Jazz may have truly ruined it for everybody lmao

the worst commissioner in sports

Wizards will forever have the 8th pick

So the league owners had no problem with tanking until the Jazz did it

The fact that this is only being addressed because of gambling is grim. The leverage that gamblers have over the league is of far more importance than making a good product for fans.

The tanking situation is a big overreaction led by fans and media. So you want bad teams to just be bad and constantly pick between 8 and 15. Everyone knows smaller market teams for them to get better they have to do it through the draft, which means the worse you are and the worst record you have the better odds you have of getting a star player through the draft the higher you pick. It is amazing we make fun of teams that are consistently winning between 35 and 42 games and say they are stuck in no man’s land, but the second teams decides to go all in and lose It’s a damn problem.

it’s fine the way it is. nothing needs to change. Sam Presti is just having a crash out about losing that Jazz pick and making it the whole league’s problem. Enough.

I find it hilarious this has been going on probably 15 years at this point. Multiple egregious examples over the years of tanking. But this year? Well, fuck those teams, right?

I mean ffs we had the freaking PROCESS. They named it. The primary player involved called himself that.

But the Pacers claw and scratch to be mid for decades, then just because we have a down year and it makes sense for us to let guys get healthy who have played some of the most minutes, including the playoffs, over the last few years everyone wants to get pissy and start throwing fines and changing rules. It’s not even about the pacers, but the fact that all of a sudden there is all this discussion about it. Come on now. Where was this energy for the last 15 years?

Kings in shambles

Can’t wait for teams that are just genuinely mismanaged to get punished by these rules.

“Stakeholders” aka all the gambling companies that shove gambling ads down our throats

Year #1 of the Kings finally starting an actual rebuild and they killing the tank #ALLICANDOISLAUGH

The gambling empire spoke and Silver immediately sprung into action. The whole world’s a scam 😂

You think he was staring directly at Danny Ainge when he gave this message?

My god that Collangelos music

Phew. Hopefully the Jazz can still tank in peace these next 2 months. Then not have to worry about it for next season when they compete for a playoff spot.

The new CBA is really what caused all of this, because its really impossible to win a championship now without talented players on rookie scale contracts.

Silver just making the league worse and worse. You can’t stop tanking

rip draft lottery

This is prolly gonna end up being worse for the league

Fanduel ass league

Prior to shutting down Lavine and Sabonis, Kings are not even tanking. They play hard, try to win games but they really bad… lol

Pacers, too. They losing because of missing guys due to injuries.

Its not like they sitting their best players in the 4th quarter to make sure they lose like the blatantly tanking Utah Jazz.

What idiot is accusing the Kings of tanking?

Spurs Thunder and Mavs fans are crying wolf big time. Cry me a river. You guys make LeBron look like the opposite of an attention seeker. It’s all about them Wizards!!!!!!!!! #DcRising

Caring about how already dog shit teams go about being dog shit is incredible to me.

Get ready for them “solving tanking” when no one tanks for the mid 2027 draft, and then be surprised that teams tank again when another group of crazy prospects comes around

The anti tanking summit will be sponsored by Fanduel no doubt 😤

“stakeholders” read: sportsbooks

Jazz tanked too close to the sun smh

And I’m sure very team will respect the new rules and not try to immediately undermine them and find a way to maxmise their chance of success with the league’s new approach

Tanking has always existed. It’s just the newest distraction to get people to stop asking about gambling integration.

ChatGPT solution incoming. Adam Silver is a garbage commissioner.

Whatever teams are tanking (Wizards, Jazz, Kings, etc.) or borderline tanking (Mavs, Grizzlies) need to go full nosedive

Silver is about to go room temp IQ this offseason

Ahh…the sports books must have finally objected.

Wait but r/nba already solved it

Thank god we got a top 3 pick before silver patched the glitch. The kings and jazz really fucked it up for everybody else

How about we get some anti-Silver rules in place too, while we’re at it?

This guy just cannot get anything right.

Are the kings actually tanking? Being bad isn’t tanking

I’m concerned this is just going to create a lot of Chicago bulls and sac kings. Just really sad mid teams that can’t get better.

Half of these teams are just dogshit after 3 years of the stupid lottery keeps giving the 35-47 teams the #1 pick lol

Honestly, the fans deserve better. That’s where I’m at. If I’m a diehard Lauri fan and spend money to see him and he gets sat because the team wants to lose, I’m bummed out.

I say this as someone who lived out of state as a Pistons fan and had tickets to the game right AFTER the malice at the palace. My first game, I was a little kid. Parents paid for the ticket and travel. And of course they deserved the suspensions but man was I sad lol. Can’t imagine my fav player being healthy and eligible and being benched for a POTENTIAL pick

I feel like this is escalating quickly

Looks like the tanking for this season will continue!

• Teams can’t pick top 4 the year after making conference finals

Why would this be an issue ?

“Stakeholders” but they just mean “Oklahoma City Thunder”

This whole situation has made me a Thunder hater, biggest hypocrites

Where’s the Aspiration results Adam

Everthing for the fucking gamblers.🖤

I mean, who the fuck cares when you, Adam Silver, already rigs the lottery on behalf of certain favored teams, like the Mavs?

So..next year we can rely on the integrity of the league…not this year…next year? Ok.

Pls be something that doesn’t ruin the nba
