Tanking teams: “Shit, will he be disappointed in us?! Will he not want to come here? So we shouldn’t, right? But then how we do we get him! FUCK, WHAT DO WE DO?!?”

Wembanyama to Pistons & dat sucks…

i think the thing people donāt understand is that you will never get a player in 2022 to intentionally lose a game, ESPECIALLY the type of player who would be playing 24 minutes a game for the charlotte hornets
you think mason plumlee wants to tank for wembanyama? no thatās his starting spot and possibly his job there. heād be intentionally losing games in order to appease the long-term promise of a future heād have nothing to do with. players on tanking teams know that if they donāt play hard their names will literally be a part of meme history. at that point youāre not playing for āthe future of your teamā youāre playing to the future of your career as a player in the NBA

I might sound insane , but I low key want the Warriors to somehow get their hands on him cuz I trust their development staff the most

Bro just does not want to end up with some poverty franchise. I bet in his mind he’s hoping Lakers end up at the bottom so he ends up with the Pels and Zion/Ingram.

Vic just doesn’t want to play for a bad team or franchise.

Imagine tho. Being a dude with Jalen Durens potential and it just getting crushed because a generational talent walks through the door. Same goes for Chet and Sengun

Are any teams like blatantly ‘tanking’ right now? Like Detroit has no Cade for the rest of the year, but Houston, Orlando, and them weren’t about to flip the switch and suddenly be good anyhow. Charlotte has had major injuries. San Antonio tore down, I guess maybe they could’ve kept Murray but that would have generally been pointless, right?
What I’m saying is discussion of tanking and the moaning about it from the media far outweighs the amount of blatant tanking occurring in the league right now.

Wemby gets selected number 1 by the Pistons on draft night. As he walks up to shake Silver’s hand he fools him, reaches over him with that insane wingspan and grabs and hits him across the head with a steel chair. He then does a Randy Orton arms extended pose. Hiding under his duvet sized suit jacket he pulls out the Money In The Bank briefcase. He cashes it in and declares “Fuck tanking I’m taking my talents to the Golden State Warriors”. Boos ring out and tensions are high. Ron Artest emerges from under the platform in Hornswoggle like fashion and instigates Malice In the Place part 2.

Technically the Pelicans arenāt tanking for him

Hornets roster and coaching staff is 100% not actively tanking. Idk about our front office but our group is putting in work. Let them cook.

Got a surprise for the team youāre going to

Ishbia brothers did the league a solid by resetting the going rate for NBA teams therefore the league should return the favor and gift them Wemby imo.

End the draft. Let players enter the nba via free agency !

my rule change to fix tanking: the team with the WORST record can NOT get the number one pick. that team automatically gets the 4th pick. everyone else goes into the lottery same as before.

Utah got word of this ahead of time and played a competitive tank

Most of us think itās weird too, and we resent the fact that crap franchises are routinely rewarded for being bad.

Tanking isnāt really a thing anymore with the new lottery odds. I think the term ātankingā has gotten confused with ārebuildingā, unless theyāre incredibly lucky every franchise has to suck at some point to be good later

Well you’re gonna be on one of those unreasonable teams Wemby
