When Pro Sports Teams intentionally TANK and are then rewarded, it ticks me off

Why THE FRIG should the Pelicans get the #1 pick when they sat their best player to close the season? Losing as tactic is a thing several organizations do. And just how hosed do paying fans feel by the intentional diminishing of the product to get better odds to get a lottery pick?

It's an investment. Delayed gratification, Little pain today for a stronger tomorrow.
Then make the tickets free and call it a “showcase”. Decency and good faith require best effort in real-time. Intentionally losing, throwing games, fights, or matches...that’s immoral stuff.

You could go with the Charles Barkley plan... and just do away altogether with the draft. Just keep the salary cap. that will get rid of tanking.
