Same here. Mon dieu.

But hold on, isn't it great news if "Lorena" goes top-9 in the draft? 
Personally I don't want him anyway (he's the answer to Shaq?) and that 
pushes another good younger prospect down to us. Looking at the draft 
board, that could even mean a shot at Joe Johnson or Jason Richardson 
(unimaginable a few weeks ago). I'm stating the obvious, but let's not 
discount the wing players if they are the best player available. Yes we 
face a MASSIVE rebounding deficit and a front office that couldn't sound 
more cavalier publically about our luxurious depth at center and power 
forward, but fans probably wouldn't be a bit worried about Boston's 
rebounding situation either if we had Shawn Marion alongside Walker on our 
current roster. It's not like we'd still grab Potapenko over Shawn Marion, 
given a second chance. What if Joe Johnson turns out to be a much better 
pro rebounder/defender than Woods or Haywood or Chandler? It could happen. 
We should be doing cartwheels over the Loren Bobbit news.
