| 4/29/26 |  Reacting to the NBA's 16 Team Lottery Plan | The NBA is inching closer to reforming the lottery. According to ESPN, it's called the "3-2-1 lottery". It's a radical change that will fundamentally change the lottery system. It'll include:-expanding the lottery to 16 teams-switching from multiple ping pong ball combinations to drawing a single ball to determine each selection-drawing selections for all 16 lottery selections as opposed to 4-flattened odds where teams in the 4-10 range get three lottery balls (8.1% odds)-a relegation zone where the bottom three teams and 9-10 seeds get two lottery balls (5.4% odds)-loser of the 7-8 games gets 1 lottery ball each (2.7% odds)-no consecutive #1 pick winners, no three-year consecutive in the top 5-no protecting picks 12-15-expanded disciplinary anti-tanking measures, including the option to reduce lottery odds and draft position-starts with the 2027 draft and only for three years, so the league can bail on this You can follow Yossi on:Twitter: https://twitter.com/YossiGozlanBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/yossigozlan.bsky.socialSalary cap sheets: www.capsheets.comYou can follow Sam on:Twitter: https://twitter.com/SamQuinnCBS Third Apron is available on all podcast providers.
