Earlier that NBA season, the team's dismal record forced a reckoning around the league about whether the draft needed to be adjusted so as not to reward that kind of behavior. The proposal to do so failed, but ESPN quoted the Lakers' owner condemning the practice anyway: 'If you're in tanking mode,' Jeanie Buss said, 'I think that's unforgivable.'
