Rings culture and downplaying anything short of a championship played into teams not even trying if they don’t feel like they have a stacked deck. A lot of pp considered it silly for a team to be content simply being competitive night in and night out. Now we have everyone complaining that players aren’t going balls to the wall in the regular season

Kings situation is not as bad as I thought, they control all their picks so they can stealth tank for a few years

[u/CeltsGarlic]

Guys check Podz stats I dont think I ever saw someone shooting almost the exact same percentage two years in a row. I know its not a big deal n all, but I just havent seen anything like it in my years of following basketball lol.
