Remembering the fall of the ping pong balls
As we approach the season and find ever new and more agonizing ways to worry about this team, and the ridiculous pseudo-statistical analysis of blogger hacks, and how Gilbert will respond this season, and whether Blatche was really that good, and whether JaVale can learn some genuine post-up moves, and whether Booker can play the 3, and how Hinrich will fit, and whether Nick can become that spot-up shooter Flip has wanted, etc... Take a moment to reminisce about May 18, 2010, a day that started with the Wizards having a 10.3% chance of winning the lottery. I couldn't even win on the ESPN mock lottery.
