When Tuesday's NBA draft lottery was about to hit the home stretch, the reps from the three teams still alive -- Minnesota, Utah and Cleveland -- were asked to step onto the stage of the NBA's studio in Secaucus, N.J. The Wolves president of basketball operations knew then he had no chance.
David Kahn was standing there with Utah General Manager Kevin O'Connor and 14-year-old Nick Gilbert -- the son of Cleveland Cavs owner Dan Gilbert and a young man battling a rare nerve disorder. "I did tell [O'Connor] ... as soon as the 14-year-old kid joined us, we were toast," Kahn said. "There was no way the 14-year-old was about to be denied in a league that has a habit of compelling story lines."
I mean was there any way that Cleveland wasn't getting the first overall pick this year after the Lebron debacle last year and when Dan Gilbert sent up his little retarded son? That might not be PC but he was mentally retarted right? Did you hear his speech after they got the pick? The most nonsensical shit I've ever heard and I read Big E's blogs every day. Regardless how fucking convenient is it that the cavs get the #1 pick with a 2.8% CHANCE OF GETTING IT. Ridiculous. That's not the point though. The point is not only do they get the #1 pick they also have their own, the #4 pick. They can take the Duke point guard and then a stud big man and if they don't screw this up they get back on track real quick. Maybe they will win a title before Lebron. God I would love that.
For all you haters about my Mavs in 5 pick did you watch Dirk last night? They just can't guard him. It's that simple. Giving the Thunder a game might have been too generous.
