I’m sure some of us will be watching the NBA Draft tonight (7 p.m. ET on ESPN), I know I will! This is one of the deepest drafts recent memory.

As usual, I expect many draft day trades as there is plenty of talent to be had. But tonight is just a teaser to the madness that will be taking place this offseason.

The real price for most NBA teams this year will come via free agency. I’ve never been this excited about an offseason in my entire life! Can’t wait to see LeBron, D-Wade, and Chris Bosh heating things up in Miami! haha!
