It just makes the NBA boring because a 10-year old could build a terrible team and then just draft the highest rated prospect in the draft every year. And you can actually build a great team that way. It doesn't feel like real competition, it's more this weird moral test where teams just have to decide whether they're actually going to try to win games or not. A top pick is so valuable. It's the way to build a champion, it frames the structure and identityof the league for years going going forward, and the way to get this great asset is just to lose. Those picks are so important that in a sizable % of NBA games, the team that loses is better off.
