The draft lottery debate has been around as long as I have been a member here. It comes up more frequently now, but I think there are numerous reasons for that (namely, because we have parity in the league now, so why is this supposed "parity" tool still around in almost the same form?).
The league in fact, has acknowledged that the pre-2005 system was obsolete and has changed the rules. IMO, it doesn't go far enough, but I really don't think they wanted to shock the system by giving it a complete overhaul.
