    I don't think Indiana (if that's who you are referring to) is doing it on purpose. They made getting HCA their #1 goal. They have just been bad lately.

    I was asking a serious question.

    It would be nice if you guys listed years and games purposely lost.

    This happens ALL THE TIME.

    In 2011, I KNOW the Blazers WANTED the Mavericks. Mavericks and Lakers were in a Race for 2nd Spot, and the Blazers prefered the Mavs... who got the 3rd spot in the end.

    Which ultimately, didnt matter as we saw history unfold
