I realize this is a little late, but I just remember it. I swear, every year - this is hands down the funniest article I read. Here is just a few quotes from it:
"5:11: Here come the Clippers at No. 7, ready to ruin yet another promising career. And the lucky loser is ... Eric Gordon! Logical pick. I can't say a bad thing about it. Right spot for him, right team, and I look forward to watching the hope get sucked out of him over these next few years."
"5:23: Just took a quick look through reader e-mails from the past hour and everyone seems to agree: We're all excited for the Gay-Love Era in Memphis."
