Only options are eliminate the draft or to link revenue to performance so that it's not profitable to lose games, but NBA owners will never go for either of those proposals so here we are. I bet Silver secretly wishes Congress would ban gambling again, it would solve a lot of his problems

Last month of the season would still be meaningless under this plan, maybe even more so. Fundamental problem is the NBA draft exists to give bad teams the single most valuable asset in US sports, which will always incentivize losing and create gambling-related issues

what’s this from?

this is coming sooner than you think imo, rumor is that florida state hasn't fired their coach in part bc his buyout is $59mm and the athletic department doesn't have the money to pay him and spend on NIL the way boosters want to

good luck!

Metro's the only way to make that trip during the day, whenever I have to drive it I'm a broken man by the time I get back to DTLA

huqzea?

that's a pretty huge effect in elite sports, especially given how simple a change it is. if there was a compression sleeve or something that gave every pitcher an extra tick wouldn't that be massive?

I need you
