That's not the point. Of course not every single player will choose a playoff team or big market. But let's say that 4 out of the top 10 players choose teams that wouldn't normally be in the lottery. That's 4 less chances for bad teams to become good. After about 5 years of this system, the talent disparity between the good teams and the bad teams would be as wide as the Grand Canyon. This would singlehandedly destroy the NBA.
