It's (usually) The Most Wonderful Day of The Year

For the first time I can remember, I haven't been rocking back and forth in anticipation all day today. The giddiness of watching the Celtics win the Championship first hand still lingers.

I'm hoping my lowered expectations will translate into a 2005-like draft experience for me (the Celts drafted Gerald Green, who had been projected in the top 5. Little did I know there was good reason for a free-fall. Other then being a throw in for KG, his greatest contribution was his phenomenal natural shocker). We'll call this the Matrix corollary, where lowered expectations lead to a 10x better experience in the long run. By the way, this corollary refers to the motion picture, not Shawn Marion.

Anyway, here's my quick criminally uniformed opinion on various draft issues,

- I like Rose, more then Beasley, but the way the Heat are treating Beasley is ridiculous. I feel like Riley is doing Beasley a favor by acting like he raped an entire group of boy scouts. He might be completely immature, but in the long run, hearing about how terrible of a person he is because he liked to party is a good thing...maybe.

- Just so we're clear Pat Riley, Michael Beasley is a terrible person, but you're in love with OJ Mayo? Were you so entrenched in researching Beasley's past that you're just assuming OJ is a swell guy? Do yourself a favor and call Tim Floyd.

- Kevin Love should be at worst a good bench player, and I really believe he'll be a really nice 4rth or 5th banana, but god help him if he goes to Milwaukee. Watching his fast ascent to 375 lbs would probably sell Comcast's NBA package for me.

- I hope to god ESPN.com has made a mistake, because if I'm reading this correctly Anthony Randolph is 6'10 197 lbs and he's still a top 10 pick? People were making jokes about Durant being a stick figure last year and he had 20 lbs on this guy.

That's it for now, I've gotta go. It seems OJ Mayo has gone with the ingenious idea of getting a pair of reading glasses from Wallgreens to make himself look more upstanding. I'm now compelled to listen to every word he says.
