Last season I touched on an issue that
I have yet to see anyone else really cover....
I'm pretty sure I was the first person to comment on what actually happens during a D-League drug test. Considering the fact that I was never once drug tested in college, it was a completely new experience for me. I was nervous, embarrassed, and a little confused about the whole situation.

Today the very teammate I wrote about Wednesday
, Blake Ahern, was called up to the Miami...
Heat . He and I decided that the call-up was obviously a direct result of my blog which posted his stats. We also decided that Miami, having only scored 54 points the night before, might have just really needed a scorer. I decided to interview Blake quickly before he left for the sunshine state.
