That being said, if they are tanking this year, that doesn't doesn't affect our pick from them. That's 2 years from now, correct?

That's not how it works, you mold the offense to fit the players. And the Raptors are doing such a great job of that, they have so many different pieces with different strengths, and they make sure the plays they design are able to give someone their bread and butter. Then they can base it around who's hot at that particular time combined with what the defense is expecting.
Masai has stated in interviews that he finds players to suit the style the coach wants to play. Same as with Casey and Colangelo - Casey wanted vets who could shoot and stated he would get what the coach wanted and Casey stated that is what he wanted.
San Antonio is probably the best when it comes to finding players who fit their system and why they have such contributions from top to bottom of roster.
When looking at the Knicks, PJax just took over. He obviously has a system he believes in. He hired a coach to run his system. When looking at that roster, it is garbage. It was garbage last year and it is garbage this year. However a couple of those players are likely seen as parts of the future moving forward. They are running the system for the guys who are going to be there moving forward. As they move forward, they are going to find guys that will fit the system. It is a process. The success we have seen with the Raptors in the last year is very much an anomaly.... and an anomaly I am very happy happened.

In spurts and quarters maybe and mostly the latter in close games especially the 4th qtr. ...but cant do it the entire season. Nevermind the danger of burnout. The playoffs though are another matter mostly because there are rest days between games and end of season is in sight alongwith the desired goal...the series at hand and of course ultimately the championship.
Why expend so much energy on the defensive end in the regular season for 48 when you can do so for a quarter or a half and get away with a win."Stay steamy"
