Does Anybody Care?

I can remember 15 or so years ago loving to watch the NBA Draft. Trying to predict which players would go to which teams (especially the Mavs) was a lot of fun for a sports geek like myself. Over the last several years, however, the Draft really isn't 'must see TV' anymore.

Basically, since the NBA has now become such an international league, a huge portion of the players picked will have never been heard of by the average fan. All the graduating high school players in the mix has also added to the confusion...however, that will change next year when the new CBA goes into effect and players must be 19 before being eligible for selection.

To add even more reason to be disinterested this year is the fact that the Mavs don't have a single pick in either of the two rounds. I guess there's always a chance that they could pull off a deal, but I'm not holding my breath.

Anyways, after saying all of that, don't forget to check out wall-to-wall coverage of the NBA Draft Tuesday night on Sportsradio 1310 the Ticket!
