NBA Proposes Anti-Tanking Overhaul: Flat Odds, Relegation and Lottery Penalties

TL;DR Summary
Commissioner Adam Silver outlined a proposed anti-tanking reform that would replace current lottery odds with flat odds and a relegation-style penalty for bottom teams, potentially stripping lottery balls and moving toward a 3-2-1 system with 16 lottery spots to deter deliberate losses and curb consecutive top picks; the NBA asserts it has authority to change odds and draft order if teams tank.
