He shouldn't be telling his players to intentionally lose and let that get out to the media, if anything tell the head coach to play worse lineups and rotations so they have less of a chance to win.

Since I am not a Dallas Mavericks fan, I would like the Mavericks to forfeit their first round pick because of this. I'm only kidding. But I don't like being so cavalier about it. People would respond by saying that they would still tank, but they wouldn't talk about it. Fine, then don't talk about it.

I think doing it and saying it is worse. Then people would respond by saying well, if you try to stop them from doing it and saying it, then they would just do it. I think just doing is better. No, I don't care and don't think that it is "at least he's being honest." I don't give credit for admitting you're going to do something wrong. Everyone wants credit from me. ;) I give credit for trying. And I understand that if you try you could screw yourself out of a good draft pick. I understand that. But I don't care. I'm not the Mavericks.

every single one of these teams has to be tanking right now

Brooklyn Lost 7 in a row
Memphis L7
Sacramento 4-6 in last 10
Orlando 4-6 in last 10
Dallas 2-8
Atlanta 4-6
Phoenix - Lost 7

Dallas is doing a really shitty job at tanking since they are 3rd right now. hell a couple of wins and they could be like in 7th.

The Nets have no reason to tank, they are just bad.

Same Mark Cuban who predicted the market would crash soon as President Trump was elected, only to see it reach record levels?

No surprise. He fried his brain years ago w drugs. I'll never forget being at a New Years Eve party he was also at. Dude is a mega drug addict and he has zero morals.

Nets doesn't own their 1st round pick. Absolutely no reason for them to tank

They're in. Porzingis done for the year. Here in NYC, they had a discussion on sports radio if the Knicks win 4 games the rest of the year

I've heard similar stories about him in the Dallas area. Was your ex-boss a big druggie, also?

No, not that I ever saw it heard of. They ran in the same circles though. Both NBA owners.

Good for him. You have to play the system you are in.
