NBA Unveils Controversial Anti-Tanking Plans in Private Owner Meeting—What It Means for the Future of the League
ESPN first reported that the concepts were shared with the governors.
“I will say again, as I’ve said this before, this is not a new issue in this league,” Silver said this week. “You can go back to the ’60s, when coin tosses were used to determine who got the first pick, then in the ’80s, when a draft lottery was created. That lottery has been modified four times since then. Does not seem to be operating optimally where we are now.”

The changes — whatever they end up being — won’t be in place for this year’s lottery, which will be held in May.
