NBA Draft Tonight

As I am embroiled in the worst summer of my life, there are exciting things happening all around me. 

Dwyane Wade and the awesomeness that he exudes on the court.

Shaq with four rings, and for some strange reason, he actually loves being the gigantic sidekick.

Television evangelist Pat Riley.

The incredibly pathetic Dallas Mavericks fans.  They’ve whined worse that the Seattle Seahawks fans.

The outlandishly bad officiating throughout the NBA playoffs.

The freaking NBA draft that is loaded with talent, but not a single superstar in the mix. 

Allen Iverson is going to get traded!

The Detroit Tigers actually have a baseball team again, which is great for the sole purpose of their home uniforms.  (With those uni’s and the Red Wings, the city of Detroit would make a serious push for best professional uniforms for a city.  But alas, the whole mid-90’s Pistons debacle and the current black additions to the Lions uniform, it wasn’t meant to be.) 

My fantasy baseball team has not so quietly removed itself from the fantasy cellar thanks to some amazing sticks in my lineup (Hafner, Bay, Ryan Howard, Manny, Jose Reyes, and the incredible free agent acquisition of Dan “You ain’t got no alibi, you” Uggla.)

Impending NBA free agency, and the Spurs with some wiggle room to make another key move.  By the way, I wouldn’t be suprised to see them pull another trade during this offseason.  They need some point help, possibly deal Barry, move Nazr in a sign-and-trade, and figure out a way to get Scola over here.  I also wouldn’t mind another young, athletic swingman to be added to their roster.

For tonight’s draft, expect a TON of deals.  And of course, a really stupid decision by Hawks’ management.

That’s all I have time for, I gotta go back to the books.  The Bar review.  I hate it.
