Well, that sucked. If you are waking up this morning wondering which NBA teams drafted Georgetown's Henry Sims or Hollis Thompson in last night's 2012 NBA Draft, look no further, because they both went undrafted by the legion of NBA front office morons.
Rather than dwell on the teams that apparently feel stockpiling players who haven't played a lick of NCAA ball and care more about Euro 2012 than the NBA Finals is actually a sound basketball decision, it's probably more productive for us to look at the bright side for Sims and Thompson. Though certainly faced with an uphill battle to make a roster spot, at least they can now be invited by a team to compete for one that actually feels they can contribute.
Special thanks to our friends at The Hoya Prospectus for giving us the clever title to this post in a comment in last night's epic 2012 Casual NBA Draft Live Blog Spectacular A Go-Go!
Onward and Upward!
