Tanking is kind of a big issue in the NBA right now . You have teams like the 76 ers and the Suns purposely being bad and throwing games just for a chance at a higher pick . There isn ' t much that can be done about it because in theory these teams won ' t need to tank anymore once they get good enough and the lottery system is fair enough . There are teams that don ' t even rely on the draft and build their teams through trades , free agency , and really good player development because these teams are perennial contenders like the San Antonio Spurs . <| sep |> You know Trump picked Pence for this exact reason , because he knew lefties would hate him . Great insurance against assassination attempts . <| sep |> No they don ' t , just the ordnance .
