The NBA should openly rig the draft lottery to reward virtues beyond losing records and eliminate tanking incentives.
As the No. 11 seed in the Eastern Conference, the Bulls have already successfully(?) dropped out of the play-in tournament bracket. Chicago could struggle to catch the Memphis Grizzlies (20-33), Dallas Mavericks (19-35), Utah Jazz (18-38), Brooklyn Nets (15-38), Indiana Pacers (15-40), New Orleans Pelicans (15-41), Washington Wizards (14-39), or DeMar DeRozan's Sacramento Kings (12-44), meaning at best the Bulls will have the ninth-best shot at a top pick.
