I'm sure all of you were glued to the screen last night to watch the NBA draft. There were a couple of surprises, but most of the picks went as expected. One of the least surprising, but nonetheless intriguing plot lines was the Utah Jazz keeping alive their record breaking streak of drafting tall white stiffs. I'm sure you all remember the 2007 draft day when the Utah Jazz traded Herbert Hill to Philadelphia for the Ukranian wonder Kyrylo Fesenko.
I can just imagine their thought process... seven feet tall? Check. Reflexes of a napping sloth? Check. Western European ties? Check. Uber white? Check. We'll take him!
Apparently they were well please with his 9 games and averages of 1.6 ppg and 2.8 rpg, so they went out and did it again this year... three more times!!! That's right. The Utah Jazz are excited to announce the drafting of Kosta Koufos, Ante Tomic, and Serbia's favorite son, Tadija Dragicevic (I had to copy and paste that name, no way was I going to try and spell it out phonetically).
Move over Andrei Kirilenko and Mehmet Okur, your replacements are here!
FYI, with these new additions, the countries now represented on the Jazz are Ukraine, Serbia, Croatia, Russia, Turkey and the USA!
