I was going to wait until later this evening to put up the thread, but I thought you could use the late afternoon laugh provided by the video above. The best "There Can Only Be One" spoof to date.

Big night for the NBA, and more precisely the Eastern Conference.

Like last year's NBA Draft Lottery there will be two winners resulting from the bouncing ping pong balls. Michael Beasley and Derrick Rose are both franchise changing players and the David Stern needs to be praying and/or calculating that Eastern Conference teams wind up 1st and 2nd. Wouldn't hurt if 1985 repeated itself with the Knicks being revitalized by a big man.

The draft lottery will be followed by Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Before this all started I picked the Boston Celtics to reach the NBA Finals, but they haven't exactly impressed. Maybe they'll flip the switch on the road, but honestly, I just don't think they're as good a team as Detroit. The 'Stons will steal a road win at some point in this series when the Celtics tire, but tonight they might struggle after the layoff.
