Washington, Phoenix, Utah, Orlando, and maybe Boston and Philly seem to be the only tanking teams at this point.
You are telling me. I was praying that Ferry was going to tank for us when Howard didn't choose ATL, but then first thing he does is sign Millsap to a 2 yr deal. I wouldn't have minded if it was a 4 yr deal and we chose build around Millsap and Horford and let everyone else go, but now we are in it for Ellis and Bynum too. Atlanta will be at best a 2nd round team as per usual.
