The Feel Good Story of the Year… 2003 [Slam]

Leon Powe :: Golden State Warrior (2003) "If there’s such a thing as karma, Leon Powe will one day lead the Golden State Warriors to an NBA championship. As destinies go, few could be more appropriate. It’s not just that such a scenario would mean Powe had realized his NBA dreams—which, given his size, skill and desire, isn’t all that hard to imagine. But achieving that kind of success with the long-suffering Warriors? That’d be justice. That’d be right. For a kid born and bred on the hard-knock streets of North Oakland, a kid who lives and breathes his hometown, that’d be just about perfect." ======================================= I will never understand why the Warriors passed on this Bay Area balla in the 2006 NBA Draft. NEVER.
