NBA Lottery night — best show in sports

Imagine, if you will, a marriage — A marriage between the United Methodist Young Adult Bingo Club and the A/X Armani Exchange-Chicago.
Now, imagine this marriage was fruitful. Imagine the Bingo and Suit union produced an offspring, writhing and pawing in its own afterbirth.
Stay with me.
That offspring is the NBA Lottery show — the annual attempt for Davy Stern and the NBA owners to discredit NBA conspiracy theorists.

That show, my friends and colleagues, is tonight.
Bouncy colored balls.
Greying, balding team reps and General Managers picking nervously at their white collars.
Slimy agents with gold bracelets, running their hairy fingers through their fake, black hair.
Beautiful.
And it’s sure to get better ratings than Part Deux of the Jazz-Spurs Massacre of ‘07.
Tune in. ESPN. 8:30 p.m. Eastern.
See you there.
