NBA draft

Yesterday was a horrible day for Houston Rockets fans. I know this because I am one, and my 15-year-old son is even more so, and he made his angst quite clear. It was an even worse day for Detroit Pistons fans, whose team ended this season with the worst record in the NBA. On the other hand, it was an outstanding evening for fans of the San Antonio Spurs, who tied with Houston for the second worst record. To be clear, none of these teams played last night. The only two teams on the court yesterday were Denver and the Los Angeles Lakers, who played game one of the Western Conference Finals. Tonight, Boston and Miami will play the first game for the East. Other than that, the off-season has begun.
