Dooms…. Er, Draft Day

It’s been a long boring month, with an even longer summer to follow. But today has finally arrived! The 2009 NBA Draft, not the NHL or NFL or MLB, but MF NBA Draft!!! All the little boys become ‘men’. All the little groupies find new victims, etc. Normally I’m not this excited about the Draft, but this is the first time we’ve been in the Lottery since Andrea Bargnani. So the thought of getting a good player that can help out the team makes me smile.Unless we screw this up…

Seeing as the draft brings a lot of trades and transactions along with it, it’s kind of hard to be surprised when people like Shaq gets traded again for the 3rd time in almost 2 years. If you haven’t heard, The Cavaliers are closing in on a deal that would send Ben Wallace, Sasha Pavlovic, a second round pick for this years draft and cash.This deal should have been done in February, maybe the Cavs would’ve had a better shot at the ring. Shaq vs D12 in ECF? That would have been interesting.

The Draft will air live on The Score. Coverage starts at 7 pm EST. If you’re too cool for Twitter, join the Live Chat at RR.

Ciao!
