Scoring the first run of the College World Series on the first straight steal of home in Omaha in over a quarter century to break your school's single-season stolen base record is a pretty loaded accomplishment.
I am sorry, but when a hitter has a hot hand, you find a way to keep their ass on the field. This Orioles crap of pulling at bat from hot hitters is beyond stupid.
Just to clarify, the NBA put out a statement saying “following an investigation including multiple interviews and video review, the league found no basis to any claim of bias or misconduct by game officials” but then rescinded all THREE technicals that crew called.

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.
