| 0:00.0 | We have one new story we have to talk about today. We've been talking a lot in the recent months |
| 0:05.1 | about the clear changes the NBA are going to make to the NBA lottery. They're done with tanking. |
| 0:10.5 | They said by any means necessary, we will fix this issue. And it seems we finally have the solution |
| 0:16.2 | they are going to implement. It was reported that this is probably going to be it. Beesoles pull this up. |
| 0:20.9 | MBA proposes new lottery system to crack down on tanking. The lottery is expanded from 14 teams |
| 0:26.0 | to 16 teams. With the relegation zone being the bottom three, you get worse odds the number one |
| 0:30.4 | pick. Teams outside the bottom three get three lottery balls opposed to two for the worst three |
| 0:35.7 | teams. Play- in teams also receive lottery |
| 0:38.2 | balls varied by seeds no team can win the number one pick in back-to-back years no team can get |
| 0:44.0 | three straight top five picks so like what the spur just did can't happen uh NBA teams |

| 1:07.9 | This is the best time to be in the middle. |
| 1:10.1 | What do you mean? |

And now you're telling me you could land like a top two pick and get someone like DeBonso. That's not happening this year. But as for instance, that's like, this is the best time to be mid because you could be somewhat in position instead of like, I feel like this rule is good because okay, like for a lot of teams, if you're middling in your fear, a middle impact team, instead of like making yourself be really asked what you see a lot of teams exaggerate things and drag things and sell off everything. Like the Memphis Grisys,ys for instance like they were they were they were bad but they're not like |
| 1:47.2 | this level of bad they're not at 27 or 28 win team like we've seen them be this year |
| 1:52.1 | they could have been decent and I think you're completely taken away the shamelessness |
| 1:56.9 | when it comes to it by flattening which is like the interesting part of I'm being positive. |
