In case you missed it, last night featured a flurry of preseason NBA games. What can you really glean from the NBA preseason, though? Well, for one, DEJUAN BLAIR.
Yep, all caps and bolded. Because he “is a beast,” as SBN’s Pounding the Rock explained it. He had 18 rebounds (eight of them offensive) in just 22 minutes last night, as the player that 29 NBA GM’s passed on because of injuries had “an epic debut.” Yahoo!’s Adrian Wojnarowski fielded some initial reactions:
More than 1 NBA exec. texted me curse[s] tonight for team doctors refusal to draft DeJuan Blair with bad knees.
(Spurs GM R.C. Buford laughs maniacally)
