The NBA presented three comprehensive anti-tanking concepts to its Board of Governors on Wednesday, with modifications expected to each before a formal vote in May, per ESPN sources. 1. 18 teams in draft lottery (seeds 7-15 in each conference) – flattened odds, with bottom 10 teams having an 8% chance, the remaining 20% odds distributed in decreasing order for 11 through 18, and and a lottery drawing for all 18 picks. 2) 22 teams in lottery using 2-year record (seeds 7-15, plus the four playoff first round exits in both conferences). Lottery teams would reach a minimum win total floor in each season, such as 25 wins. If a team falls short of the floor, it gets slotted to meet the floor. Top 4 drawn as part of lottery, as is currently. 3) 18 teams in a "5 by 5" lottery – bottom 5 teams have equal odds for the top pick, with lottery formed for picks 1-5. Bottom 5 teams have a floor at 10; those that fall out of top 5 get sorted in a separate drawing.


i will forever stand by this take that his 83 points is bad for basketball

ESPN Sources: Offensive Player of the Year and Super-Bowl champion Jaxon Smith-Njigba reached agreement with the Seattle Seahawks on a four-year, $168.6 million contract extension that now makes him the highest-paid WR in NFL history. The deal averages $42.15 million per year, and includes over $120 million guaranteed, both setting records for any wide receiver. The deal was confirmed by @WINSportsGroup.

Bam Adebayo on Luka Doncic’s 60-point night: “I know what it’s like to be in that mode… As people can see, it’s not easy to get to 80.”

Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart on Bam scoring 83: Brunson: two things can be true. I think 40 something FTs for one person is ridiculous, but 83 is 83 Hart: I can almost guarantee you he won’t score 30 in the 1st quarter in his career ever again. So if you’re on that kind of Heater and Spo says rock out, rock out… the last 4-6 minutes just weren’t basketball. The fouling was just so stupid. That part was not very ethical but 83 is 83. At the end of the day he’s got the 2nd highest (Via @Roommates__Show)
