    I can hear Bill Worrell now...

    "Gay and Head on the Give-n-Go."

    "Nice Wrap-Around from Gay to Head."

    "Was that Gay Over-The-Back? Head was in the area."

    "Good penetration by Head on the give from Gay."

    Too bad they let 'Spoon go... :(

    Tomorrow's a big day. If you have a lucky pair of drawers, socks, a rabbits foot, horse shoe, anything. Wear it tomorrow and keep your fingers and toes crossed.

    Say your prayers if you're religious, if not then be nice to people to invoke good karma, perhaps let someone in front of you on the road on the way to work.

    Do whatever you can and just hope that we can nab a top 3 pick.

    QUESTION?
    Will the Lottery Drawing be held seperately from the Pistons V Miami Game or will it be held during the half time of that game??

    In order for us to get pushed to 11, the three teams behind us would have to get the top 3.

    That's just not going to happen.

    The worst I suspect would be a #9 pick, but I think we could get lucky and be a top 3.

    If Portand gets the 1st Pick
    and NY (Chicago) gets the 2nd Pick

    Our chances are 23 in 570 or 4% to get the 3rd pick

    So I am predicting that we get the 3rd pick

    And we pick .........

    Bargnani said he will not play in the NBA, unless he is drafted by Toronto.

    Yeah I read that too,

    We move down #9, and we pick Reddick. Usually when I'm pessimistic, things turn out better than I think.
