Last night the Los Angeles Clippers won the 2009 NBA Draft Lottery which means another poor soul will get lost in the abyss that is the LA Clippers. Does anyone remember Michael Olowakandi as the number one pick in 1998? How about some of their other first-round picks which include Darius Miles, Melvin Ely, Brian Skinner, Maurice Taylor, Lorenzen Wright, Greg Minor, Terry Dehere, Randy Woods, Elmore Spencer and Loy Vaught. YUCK!!! The Clippers are playing it cool stating they will explore all options which could mean they will draft someone random like Tyler Hansbrough with the first pick, but all signs point to Blake Griffin.
Sorry Blake…Sorry!
