May 21, 2008; Celtics took the first blow! Draft Lottery results!

Yesterday, since my parents and grandparents went on a wake of their friend, I was the only person left here inside the house, with the househelp. I answered all the calls pertaining to the business while my dad wasn't here, and made sure that everything was in order. So there. I watched TV and SMS'd almost the entire afternoon inside my room. Game 2 of our basketball championship was supposed to be scheduled yesterday evening, but because of the heavy outpour of rain, it was postponed to another date.

The draft lottery in the NBA has just concluded. And here are the complete rundown of the teams from number 1 to the bottom!
