And the Nuggets, let’s give it up to them, were the best team in the NBA. The Wolves are a good team, but probably not the best team. It wasn’t close.

NEW DELHI, May 4, 2024 (AFP) - India is not xenophobic, the country's foreign minister has insisted, after comments by US President Joe Biden suggesting the South Asian nation and fellow ally Japan were struggling economically because they rejected immigrants. Biden, who is seeking reelection against Republican rival Donald Trump in November, made the remarks at a campaign fundraising event in Washington this week. - 'Unfortunate' -Biden had clubbed allies India and Japan in with rivals China and Russia in remarks intended as a defence of US immigration policy. Tokyo responded Saturday by saying it was "unfortunate that comments not based on an accurate understanding of Japan's policy were made". Since taking office in 2021, Biden has strengthened ties with US allies in Asia, in particular India and Japan.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — The NCAA and major college conferences are considering a possible settlement of an antitrust lawsuit that could cost them billions in damages and force schools to share athletics-related revenue with their athletes. There is quiet acknowledgement among many college sports administrators that a settlement of House is the best course of action. In a previous filing, attorneys for the NCAA and the conferences contend damages in House will be $1.4 billion, though in successful antitrust cases damages are tripled. More recently the emphasis from NCAA President Charlie Baker and others has shifted to trying to prevent college athletes from being deemed employees. Some type of revenue-sharing agreement or substantially increased payments to college athletes on top of scholarships seems inevitable.
