A little late, but no one posted so:
I find it funny how Miami didn't win 20 games last season. What a joke. Wade needs to step up. Plus: they had shaq and still were 10/50 with him.
Quote:The 2008 NBA Draft Lottery was held Tuesday night, May 20th. The Bulls were the big winner, moving up to the 1st despite owning less than 2% of the ping pong balls. Seattle was the biggest loser as they fall down to the 5th spot.. a frontcourt of Kevin Durant and Michael Beasley will no longer be possible.
