Let the Roko Era Begin!
Watching the NBA draft in 2005, I waited for my Toronto Raptors to select their second round choice, not a ton of excitement for the 41st pick, considering the odds of uncovering a hidden gem is as likely as Shaq hitting a three pointer.   This year I was ready, I’d heard of a young, exciting point guard of the future, Roko Ukic.
