NBA Playoffs....they're CAT-Tastic!

The playoffs are set, and we've got eight former Kentucky players set to put in time for their respective teams. My personal favorite is Tony Delk, who can join the basketball elite of have an NCAA Championship ring and an NBA Championship ring. Tony's an incredibly nice guy, and deserves it. And pulling for the Pistons makes me feel like I did rooting for the Bulls with Mike, Scottie and Dennis. Mr. Rodman is my all-time favorite NBA player, followed closely by Air Jordan. But Rasheed and Big Ben aren't far behind. Anyway....
