The ball about to go through the hoop.

[youknowme]

Last I saw Ron Ron was playing for the Nets...?

[Hangman]

Yeah, he's been out of the league for a few years... He was a really good player for the Celtics and during his stint in Chicago... But then he got traded to the Pacers and benched... And the rest of his years he was just a drifter... Played for the Spurs and Nets after that... Never did much for either.

[youknowme]

He's been in & out for 10 years. I keep forgetting he was the #6th pick in his draft.

Now that... My friends... Is a draft.

 

96 and 2003 were 2 of the best drafts ever.

^No joke. Kittles, Wright, Walker, Brown & Pope are the only "slouches" in that draft. Kittles was probably the best of those.
