Well, I can easily see an active member (like rondo) trade away a ton of mid-range guys in exchange for a ton of hurt keeper-quality players, because he knows that he can get the first pick in the draft if he continues to suck. In other words, you can still tank even if you are an active player.

Whats wrong with grabbing hurt keepers in order to have them for a discount? It's a strategy. I think we're over-regulating this in an attempt to control how owners manage their teams. Do you really think a lottery will keep shitty teams active? All you're doing is impacting the teams that are doing what they should be doing by preemptively trying to penalize those that COULD try to tank. All the while with the threat of expulsion in place. All we need is to have one penalty and have the gonads to use it. Two rules do not result in an increased disincentive.
