Meh, they shouldn't increase the odds across the board but they should definitely even the odds out more in the bottom five of the standings. It's usually so close in points at the end of the season anyways that the odds do not properly reflect that in the lottery.

Another thought would be to reward one of the bottom five teams in the standings an extra ball or two if they had the most wins (while using the current points accumulation system) as to eliminate the "tank".

Sounds too complicated to me. Or just reverse the order randomly every year in the bottom five. some years 4 goes to one and one goes to five and so on.

Small market teams stand to suffer the most out of a decreased odds change as that is their primary way of getting talent. they can't just go out and buy teams like the bigger markets.
