Thumbs up for the humor, not for the actual idea of tanking.
I too don’t want to tank, but if the Mavs don’t intend to contend this year, wouldn’t that objectively be the best move for next season and beyond? Like if we don’t want to go all in this season, we should go all in for the next one, which includes tanking this year right?
That way we have as good of a pick as possible to either trade or draft with. We have a first rounder if i’m not mistaken, next year. Having a better draft pick could legit be the difference maker in a trade for a star.
