I agree. This is what sports should be about - competing. Unfortunately, we live in a world where there is no promotion and relegation, so competing hard and missing playoffs is punished, while intentionally not competing is rewarded.
If I was King of the world, I would make it so all teams who miss the playoffs have equal shot at the top pick. In fact, picks 1-16 are all randomly selected.
