2024-2025 Tank Race

I know stones and glass houses and all, but this Philadelphia team is so intentionally BAD. Its only a 9 point game now at half, but they look so much worse than that at home against Washington.

How do tie breakers work in the lottery? Coin flip, or do they average the odds out?

Both. Lottery odds (number combinations) are distributed evenly or even-ish. Default draft position is resolved via a coin flip.

Welp, looks like the Sixers are tanking like superheroes.

I knew the 76ers were going to lose tonight's game against the Wizards. They’re pulling all the tank stops now.

We're No 1. This is very sweet.

Jazz lose every coin flip they are involved with. Take that to the bank. I suppose we could finally win this one and the #2 pick wins the lottery though.

If we're ending up flipping a coin with Washington that is disaster territory, we're flipping for 5th or 6th since we tied for last and both got jumped by 4 teams. Odds would be split for the actual lottery portion and coin flips should only decide order after that.

I know there's like a 25% of that if we end up in that scenario but thinking about this just made me sad

I just Did the lotto simulator 10 times. First 6 times the jazz got second pick, then 5th then second then 5th again. WTH????

Man, I really hope we get Tre Johnson if we end up at 5. What a great spot to be in.
