Well, it depends in the NBA. Say Denver (for example) was picking in the first and a center was deemed the highest rated player based purely on talent. They really would have no reason to take such a center since he'd never play with Jokic. Denver (due to luxury tax concerns) would rather take BPA at any other position as that player would get far more minutes than a backup center would and would be cost-controlled for 4 years at least. Specifically, say in this last draft, Denver had the 12th pick for some reason. They are not taking Derek Lively because he makes no sense on that roster because Lively will never play with Jokic there. They'd probably take the best wing instead even if they individually had Lively rated as a better prospect than anyone on the board.

With Jackson Holliday doing what he’s doing in High A, I would have to think the Orioles would be very willing to go back to the high school ranks"

Peak Mussina or Peak Bedard were the best starters I've seen pitch for us.

Uh, Boston won

I'll say this...That Apple TV game against Boston was the best picture I've ever seen for a baseball game.

Another blurb from Law regarding Nick Richmond: "The Tigers released right-hander Nick Richmond last winter after the then-23-year-old had a nondescript season in the Gulf Coast League, but he went out and worked on his delivery on his own over the winter and saw a big velocity gain, leading the Orioles to sign him as a minor-league free agent. He’s working in relief in Arizona, and I saw just two pitches, but both were above-average offerings, with a fastball at 94-95 mph and a hard slider at 85-86 mph. He had a modest platoon split after he signed with Baltimore in early June, so he might just be a right-on-right reliever, but there’s something here. For Detroit to have him and let him go for nothing is indicative of what new GM Scott Harris has to try to change there"

The ACC that everyone loved is dead. The old 9 team conference with true round-robin died long before Maryland left. The ACC thought so much of Maryland that they decided Pitt was going to be its natural rival and wasn't going to ensure any annual home and homes with UNC, Duke, State, UVA, etc.. It was the last straw from a conference that never cared about Maryland. The move to the Big Ten has been great from an academic sense (look at the expansion of the engineering program), and the basketball has been fine (I'd argue that the BIG 10 has been deeper consistently than the ACC since Maryland left).
