2007 NBA Draft Preview: Tito's Revenge


some notes Larry King style leading up to the NBA Draft:

-Greg Oden will not have the immediate impact of 1997 Tim Duncan next year; Duncan played 4 years in college Oden half a year; Oden does have one "advantage" though: tons and tons of sports media / Internet hype which wasn't around in the 1997 dial-up era

-the sleeper of the draft could be Al Horford; I say this for two reasons: he's pretty good and a two-time NCAA champion and more importantly his father Tito played (very) briefly for the 1993-1994 Washington Bullets; the name "Tito Horford" became kind of a catchphrase for my friends and I for instance:

Friend: Ben, my grandmother just died.
Me: Tito Horford!!

or

Friend: Well it looks like none of us are going to senior prom.
Greek Chorus (chanting): Tito Horford's cock!!
