Remembering Wendell Ladner as the NBA playoffs commence.

The NBA playoffs have started, and as always, I'll be rooting for the former ABA teams who made it this year: Denver, Indiana and San Antonio. It made me think of the late Wendell Ladner, former Kentucky Colonel and New York Net, and the subject of this clip.

It's over. Back to the diamond.

I thought the Lakers would win, but this series was closer than the final 4-1 count indicates. No more NBA basketball for daddy ... until November?

Time to return to baseball.
