A “draft credit” system gained traction during a brainstorm session for NBA lottery reform, per @JakeLFischer
“A real-life equivalent to the way waiver budgets work in Fantasy Football, which essentially would have meant bidding on incoming rookies like you would with the Monopoly money that gets thrown at free agents in the Fantasy realm.”

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.

Doc Rivers on why Cam Thomas fell out with the Bucks’ coaching staff:
“There are things that we don’t need to talk about.”

Vince Vaughn is criticizing late night TV shows for having political agendas: "You don’t want to become part of a group and feel like you’re a champion for one ideology. You want to make fun of everybody."
“The podcasts have gotten so much more popular with less production, less writers, less staff. And the reason is … people want authenticity. The talk shows, to a large part, became really agenda-based. They were going to [evangelize] people to what they thought. And so people just rejected it because it didn’t feel authentic. It felt like they had an agenda. It stopped being funny, and it started feeling like I was in a fucking class I didn’t want to take. I’m getting scolded.” (via "This Past Weekend podcast)

In a groundbreaking development, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved a novel cancer therapy that uses focused sound waves to target tumors, offering an alternative to traditional treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery. This approach, sometimes referred to as high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), harnesses the energy of sound waves to destroy cancerous tissue with precision while sparing surrounding healthy cells.
During treatment, ultrasound waves are carefully directed at the tumor, generating heat and mechanical forces that disrupt the cancer cells’ structure. The process can trigger cell death, reduce tumor size, and in some cases, stimulate the body’s immune response against remaining cancer cells. Unlike conventional therapies, sound wave treatment is non invasive, which means no incisions, less risk of infection, and often shorter recovery times for patients.
Clinical studies have demonstrated promising results for certain types of tumors, including prostate, liver, pancreatic, and breast cancers. Patients experienced tumor reduction and improved outcomes without many of the side effects commonly associated with chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Researchers believe that this technology may expand to other cancers in the future as devices and techniques continue to improve.
Experts note that while sound wave therapy does not replace all standard treatments yet, it represents a major advancement in non invasive oncology care. Ongoing research aims to refine targeting methods, optimize treatment protocols, and evaluate long term effectiveness and safety.
This FDA approval highlights the growing potential of innovative technologies to provide safer, more precise cancer therapies with fewer side effects.
