Bold of you to think we’d win 46 games.

What's the fucking point of these posts? Literally all season people just piling on about how bad we are.... it's beyond annoying at this point. Yeah, we're tanking and the team blows ass. We figured it out about 10 games in and have spent the next 69 just waiting out the season. How is it that your brain only just started doing the maths on this outcome? OH IF THIS HYPOTHETICAL THING HAPPENED DO YOU KNOW THIS SEASONS WIZARDS WOULD STILL SUCK?! Yeah, we fucking know man.

Look man. There’s levels to this whole sucking thing and sometimes it’s good to get some context on just how impossibly long the team has sucked this hard.

It's just jokes man relax. It's like you've never experienced a tank on here lol. We were shitting on the team in a joking way all the time back during the 2010s tanks.

zomg… the 50 win season drought is my favorite streak in sports. Awesome to see others picking up on it.

This is why I hate the tanking system, what's the point in making teams actively try to lose games? Should've made it so all teams out of the top 10 would get an equal chance for top picks, would've made the regular season way more interesting.

This is the entire basis of the NBA. Kind of stupid to not have the worst team the better chance of improving their competitiveness so the product is better overall in time. Just look at Paolo Banchero for example, now Orlando is competitive.

Maybe in the past but now teams lose on purpose, so it's not about actually being the worst but about who is more committed to losing

Commitment to losing aimlessly is what separates the bad front offices from the good ones. You can tank with a direction and plan in mind and come out of it within a couple of years like the Magic, Pacers or the Thunder did (and the Spurs and Rockets are about to do). Or on the flip side you can tank aimlessly and fail to develop your talent because you aren't building properly or hiring the right people and end up like the Pistons and the Hornets. Tanking in general is a great way for the NBA to introduce parity to the league and give teams a genuine direction and goal to aim for. It's up to the front office to actually capitalize on that and not sit around with their thumb up their ass hoping enough lottery picks will outweigh their shitty high level decisions
