Video: 2012 NBA Draft, Nintendo Version

The 2012 NBA draft has come and gone and it was, as usual, a night of surprises, awkward interviews, and a look at who’s on the front lines of fashion or, more importantly, who can pull off a flat-brim hat the best. Teams and their new draftees will now work towards summer league, where we’ll get our first glimpses of these rookies at work.

For now, though, as a way to say goodbye to the draft for another year, is the following Nintendo draft. Two things to ponder: Was Skip Bayless not included because his unnatural skin tone could not properly be portrayed in 8-bit? And, I think Bowser would have fit nicely alongside DeMarcus Cousins in Sacramento as well, yes?
