Lucky Dog On Track

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.

“It was the last time I saw my husband of 52 years, when I pulled him out of our burning home. “I didn’t understand at the time that the fire trucks were there but not the water. There was no water to put out my house.”

Pulled us a new name out of the No. 9 car pack. Jake Finch joins JR Motorsports for five races starting at Atlanta in July.

Darius Rucker on the show now. Told us that he's getting into NASCAR team ownership.

Tyler Reddick in-car shows Chris Buescher basically stopped right in front of him. Reddick: "I didn't see a hand! I don't know if he was waving?" "Nah bud, they don't do that. It's all good."

Another cool suit failure 😳
