I'm not sure who implemented it but the biggest problem with the NBA is the draft lottery, where the worst team RARELY receives the #1 pick, as they should. How many years have the Timberwolves been in the shitter? When was the last time they had the #1 pick? Hell, I can't even remember the last time they had the #2 pick.
Evidence that the lottery is a farce: There is no way in Hell Derrick Rose should be a Chicago Bull.
