After my daily prayers for Derrick Rose to the Knicks went unanswered I found my answer after Paul Pierce and the Celtics went on to prove that there is, in fact, no God.OK, maybe I'm getting de ja vu but didn't the same crap happen to Boston last year that's happening to New York this year? And see how that turned out?
Glass half full... glass half full...
Damnit. It didn't work. Yeah and my Knicks are still stuck with a BS pick in a BS draft with BS fans who don't give a BS. God I hope they do something. To tell you the truth, I'm not very intrigued with many of the guys on the board past Beasley. It seems like a very "Kenyon Martin" type draft.
But speaking of Beasley, I seem to think that Pat Riley really wants him. I mean maybe it's just me (and Mario Castelli who brought this up btw) but I find it very easy to think that Pat Riley has a little something up his sleeve... why else would he have lobbied for Derrick Rose so much? Hmmm. Honest people just don't slick their hair back like that as we all learned from the masterpiece that is D2: The Mighty Ducks.
And don't be surprised, by the way, if the Bulls pull a "Dwight Howard" on us and go and take Beasley anyway. I mean, HE IS after all, the better fit. How could it even be argued? They would need to trade half their team just to play Rose... and last time they did something like that they traded away Tyson Chandler to pay an over-the-hill Ben Wallace who essentially was just a shorter version of Chandler. Meanwhile, Beasley fills the scoring forward need... and best of all, they wouldn't NEED to hope Tyrus Thomas finally learned how to play basketball. Just a thought.
Now if you don't mind, Danny Ainge just gave me the Devil's phone number. I need to ask him for Russell Westbrook.
