2025-2026 Tank Race Prediction Contest and Current Results Thread

I sort of think the NBA might give a call to all the tanking teams to start benching their players instead of doing mid game tanking. The idea behind forcing the stars to play is to sell tickets, but it feels like the larger problem right now is all the gambling. People are making prop bets on the fly like crazy and getting very angry when the player they bet on starts sitting. When Lauri doesn't play in a game, it's no problem gambling wise as long as it's disclosed in a timely manner. When Lauri only plays 25 minutes it creates chaos for addicts betting on his over/under rebounds.

Probably popular opinion: these lunatics need to get a grip and exercise any self-control. Whether they do that or not is on their gooning asses.

I'm still shocked the Pelicans didn't make any upgrades. If you're in last place with no reason to be in last place, upgrade your roster. How do they not get a Sexton?
 
No way the pelicans can pull off this upset of the Timberwolves.
They literally game zero chance
 
Jazz need to announce that key and Lauri are out for the year

The wizards have been benching all their starters for the entire second half for each of their last 3 games. And they are about to sit everyone against BKN the next game by tagging everyone "questionable". They are really pushing the boundaries of tanking and forcing Silver to do something about it. They aren't playing along. They are flipping the table to make sure no team can legit tank any more.
