I think the one thing there may be some interest in ... would be to maybe look at how you seed the top four teams. One thing that we have kicked around is whether you might say, all right, those same four teams are going to get the top four seeds, but maybe you do it in accordance with their records. - Russ Granik Quotes

I think that one problem is ? and we really haven't looked at this seriously ? is where you draw the line. I think lottery protection ? I don't think it's one that's too serious because I think teams want to be in the playoffs, not the lottery. When you draw the line in other places, that's where a fan or a journalist could say what's the difference whether they're between 10th or 11th or 20th or 21st? And I think we just have to look at how that works, but I don't think we'd be limiting lottery protection entirely, we may just be limiting some type of protection. - Russ Granik Quotes

I decided I wanted to take it a bit easier for a while and then see what I want to do. There are a couple of things in sports that would be of great interest to me. Announcing it this way gives me the time to think about what might make sense. - Russ Granik Quotes
