K.J. can run the point and Sac-Town

Notwithstanding the national affirmation of socialism, radical Islam and rampant negritude yesterday, one of the more pleasant developments of Super Tuesday was the election of Kevin Johnson as mayor of Sacramento (Calif.).

Maybe some of you remember K.J. as a three-time NBA All-Star and point guard of some title-contending Phoenix teams led by Charles Barkley.

But I remember him as the guy who momentarily embarrassed the only NBA idol of my youth.

It’s all good, though. Johnson never beat Hakeem and the Rockets when it really mattered. Glad to see K.J. finally learned how to win in the clutch.
