Problem with tanking this year is that its a 1 star player draft.

Its Simmons or bust.



Me thinks you dont watch college basketball, and or dont know what you are talking about!

This draft has some REALLY GOOD PLAYERS.

Top 10 is pretty loaded

At the same time, I don't think people realize the lengths it takes to go to to tank. You need to frick the roster up pretty seriously over the course of a year or two, to where you're team is just so bad and dysfunctional losing becomes 2nd nature

A healthy AD makes tanking almost impossible

Me knows plenty about about college basketball. Yes, there are good prospects in this draft.

NONE of them, other than Simmons and maybe Skal, are worth blowing up a season, roster, and wasting Davis' year 22 season for a shot at.

I mean, people do understand what Simmons is talking about when he says "pull a 97 Spurs," right?

It means blowing up the roster and sending Davis home for the season like the Spurs did with Robinson.

Are people really willing to let 22 year old Anthony Davis watch this season from his sofa for a shot at Jaylen Brown or Jamal Murray? Come on.
