Some people act like guys on a bad team get a memo from the front office that says "we're hitting the shitter, please don't try so that we can work on a really good draft pick in June" and they do it loyally because they'll do anything to help the team and just don't care about winning at all. If a team doesn't have talent, it's going to suck - and bad teams by and large don't have as much talent as good teams. Putting out artificial incentives to try and get them to play better doesn't make them better.Order the draft based on points accumulated after mathematical elimination. Bad teams will be eliminated earlier, therefore allowing them more chances to accumulate points, but it punishes them for completely gutting their team or "tanking" once eliminated.
