As Saturday Night Live prepares to do a special of its Best of the '90s (of which only about 30% will be good), I figured I'd share an oldie but goodie:
I mean, DEEEEENG, as in Luol Deng, the small forward for the Chicago Bulls who are about to win their first playoff series since Jordan stuck that 18-footer in the face of Bryon Russell in June '98 (I remember watching that game, right at the end of high school, in Epstein's basement on Davis Ave.... those were the days [sigh]).
Deng's averaged almost 30 PPG in Chicago's mauling of the Heat. Whatever happened to Duke players not succeeding in the NBA? Elton Brand, Carlos Boozer, and now Deng. A long way from players like Christian Laettner, Bobby Hurley, William Avery and Jayson Williams...
I'll reiterate a prediction that I made to Ari last week -- either Chicago or New Jersey will represent the East in the Finals. Chicago will beat Detroit. My expert take :)
