Tanking The Season

[NittanyBuc 757]

Woah woah no one wants to be illegal. Of course we play sensibly and aim to win where we can, it's just a matter of not overstressing the team to put points up, as mentioned in the case of Jameer Nelson. I mean, look at the team and how many people are injured. If you know the team isn't going to make the playoffs then there's no reason to push so hard for victory every night, and the draft pick is just a bonus incentive.

"Losing games on purpose" is illegal. There's ways to circumvent the legalities, as with anything else, but deliberately losing and acknowledging that fact is illegal. You have to at least attempt to remain competitive.

 

Otherwise, don't you think teams would have already done this? Seriously, did you think this was such a great idea that only a mind like yours could compose?

 

 

My God this is getting bad.

 

No need to be a condescending ***** about it.

 

Actually, I do that all the time. Carry on...

I think our roster is bad enough to lose games without the team placing an emphasis on it.

[Bauncey Chillups 288]

Our roster isn't even good enough to lose games on purpose since even when they play well we lose.

I dont think it is about tanking, I do think it is about the development of our younger players. We need to play them more mins. It is funny. our best scorer is andrew and he can barely get in the game over mcbob.

You can pretty much tell when players aren't trying. As a fan, there's nothing more demotivating than that, in my opinion. Cue Herm Edwards.

 

Oh, and hello, by the way. I didn't see a newbie section, so this is my first post.

 

PS. NittanyBuc, I think I like a lot of your players, but I won't start a side conversation here. (Nice Gif)

 

Edit: NB already beat me to the Herm Edwards reference.

In answer to the question the team logo..."we will"...its not a matter of if we should. This team is stripped of talent anyone would want.
