Wizards Win NBA Lottery--
And the Top Pick is a No Brainer

 

“With the top pick in the 2010 NBA draft the Washington Wizards take John Wall from the University of Kentucky.”

 

IT HAS TO GO DOWN like that. Because Lady Luck has finally smiled upon our Wizards and Wall is the prize. The kid can flat-out ball. Wall is a natural at the point guard position and a super, super athlete as well. On top of that, the 19-year old Wall has already been praised for his outstanding work ethic and his on- and off-court leadership skills.  More.

 

We want to hear from you. Do you think Wall should be the Wizards pick? Or would you draft someone else? Send your comments to dccitytalk@gmail,com.

By Ashleigh Hodge

 

ALTHOUGH ECONOMIC TIMES are causing us to break into our piggy banks, that doesn't mean we have to compromise being fly. For “honey girls” with a sweet spot for designer duds who get ourselves in sticky “buyers remorse” situations, fret no more. There is plenty of buzz around online boutiques that offer luxury on layaway!
