The NBA is considering a proposal to eliminate the draft lottery as we currently know it in favor of a draft wheel. The draft wheel would allow team to cycle through every draft slot and be guaranteed one top-six pick every five seasons and at least one top-12 pick in every four-year span. The system is designed to protect against teams attempting to be bad or letting themselves be bad for a high draft pick. The concept has gained traction in the higher levels of the NBA's league office and could be proposed to owners sometime in 2014, according to sources. Others have expressed early opposition to the proposal.

After studying this idea for 12 hours a day, and every day since 12-23-13, without any breaks, I have concluded that it is a great idea. Expect owners of last-pace finishing clubs to be against it since it will impact their lottery chances. I also think NBA owners should consider Dennis Rodman to preside over the NBA. Of course, I have only been studying that idea for about a week, and only 10 hours per day.
