Bryan Colangelo has admitted to tanking. Lionel Messi Barcelona Jersey . The former Toronto Raptors general manager spoke to the MIT Sports Analytics Conference in Toronto on Friday where he said that he intended for the Raptors to finish as close to the Eastern Conference basement as possible in the lockout shortened 2011-12 season in hope of winning the NBA Draft lottery. "Admittedly, I will say, I tried to tank a couple years ago," said Colangelo to the conference. "And I didnt come out and say, Coach (Dwane Casey), youve got to lose games. I never said that. I wanted to have him establish a winning tradition and a culture and all of that, but I wanted to do it in the framework of playing and developing young players, and with that comes losing. Theres just no way to avoid that, but I never once said, Youve got to lose this game." The Raptors finished the 2011-12 season 23-43, good for 11th in the Eastern Conference, 12 games behind the Philadelphia 76ers for the final playoff spot in the East, and the eighth-worst record in the NBA. The team neither rose, nor fell in the lottery, receiving the eighth-overall pick in the 2012 draft where they selected Terrence Ross out of the University of Washington. The 2007 NBA Executive of the Year (with the Phoenix Suns) was speaking on a proposal currently in front of the NBA Board of Governors which would see the draft lottery and any incentive to bottom out eliminated. Colangelo was relieved of his general manager position last May in favour of Masai Ujiri and eventually resigned his post as Raptors president the following month. Jordi Alba Jersey .

The MLB team will play a five-game series against a squad of Japanese League All-Stars, starting next week. Perez, the catcher for the AL champion Royals, will be joined by three other members of the teams pennant winners -- pitcher Jeremy Guthrie, backup catcher Erik Kratz and shortstop Alcides Escobar. Longoria will be the primary third baseman for the club and will be joined in the infield by Houstons Jose Altuve, Seattles Robinson Cano, Colorados Justin Morneau and Clevelands Carlos Santana. Altuve, Cano and Morneau had previously been announced as team members. Tampa Bays Ben Zobrist and Minnesotas Eduardo Nunez will play both in the infield and the outfield, while other outfielders for the squad will be Houstons Dexter Fowler and Los Angeles Dodgers star Yasiel Puig, who was also previously selected to play in the series. Lucas Duda of the New York Mets can also play the outfield, as well as first base. Astros designated hitter Chris Carter and Dodgers catcher Drew Butera will also make the trip. Joining Guthrie on the pitching staff for the MLB team will be Tampa Bays Jeff Beliveau, Washingtons Jerry Blevins, Chriis Capuano of the Yankees, St. Paco Alcacer Barcelona Jersey. Louis lefty Randy Choate, Baltimores Tommy Hunter, Pittsburghs Mark Melancon, Colorados Franklin Morales, Hector Santiago and Matt Shoemaker of the Angels, Houstons Jose Veras, Milwaukees Rob Wooten and Japanese natives Hisashi Iwakuma of Seattle and Tsuyoshi Wada of the Cubs. Three players previously named to the squad wont participate, as Washingtons Bryce Harper, Baltimores Adam Jones and the Angels Albert Pujols all opted out of the series. Bostons John Farrell will be the manager for the team, replacing Ron Washington, who had initially been selected as the skipper in August before resigning as manager of the Texas Rangers in September. It will mark the 11th All-Star series and the 36th time overall that a team of Major League Baseball players will tour Japan for games. The current five-game format was adopted in 2006, the last time a group of MLB stars squared off against a team of Japan All-Stars. The MLB team went 5-0 eight years ago. The opening game will take place in Osaka on Nov. 12 before heading to Tokyo for three games on the weekend of Nov. 14-16. The final game of the series will be in Sapporo on Nov. 18. Two exhibition games will bookend the series -- the first on Nov. 11 and the last on Nov. 20.
