As a vocal advocate of Nerlens Noel, you’d think I view this draft as a failure for the Cleveland Cavaliers. And as my reaction-tweet to the first overall pick last night shows, initially, it was a view of failure “no no no no no”.

I like Nerlens Noel. A lot. I like like him.

But if Miami wins, as is expected, it’s just another stepping stone to their quest for dominance. With that in mind, I’m keeping a running diary tonight to effectively capture the overall feeling as the momentum swings back and forth, as well as to provide a physical memory of this game, as…
