And after all, it doesn't basicly matter if you are second or seventh in your conference. When you keep your league. Same income, but you'll get much better draft position being 7th! This is not right, but this might be American style?

Though when you are second you'd be in the playoffs...

OK, lets come back to NBA. So there are no rewards to teams at the top either? According to success?

Yep, and this 7th team also have an extra match to survive in current league. Normally this conference nr 2 may have two matches? So?

Pahinta jäädä sijalle viisi, se pistäis vituttaan!

In English:
Worst of all is to be #5 in conference, no games, no money, no great position in draft!

That is something to be avoided.

the rewards for the teams at the top include a shot at the championship, which is what every team is going for. draft picks are nice, but a championship is a lot better.

I understand, but only 1/16 teams can make that position. In the middle of season you might notice that your team is not eligible for that? Why not then make some tactics for next season?

Teams don't usually start throwing games until the end of the season. towards the middle of the season you should be able to make some tactics in order to put your team in position to make a playoff push. obviously in BB you don't want to be automatically relegated so you need to be careful if you want a good draft pick.

Maybe they should just introduce the lottery.

Financially it's dumb to tank more than a game, maybe two at the most, since the heavy fan mood penalties really put a damper on your finances.

I disagree. 5th is the best position if you aren't going to make the playoffs. That's because 6-8 can all get relegated which sucks even though they may have a high pick, they won't need it playing against a lower tier of competition. Not to mention, you will probably have a greater fan base and stability if you are in 5th as opposed to 6-8.
