The Cleveland Cavaliers were just seconds away from purchasing a second round pick that could have been used on DeJuan Blair.

Cleveland offered Denver $2 million for the 34th pick. GM Danny Ferry thought it was essentially a done deal and had fingered Blair as the pick.

But with just 10 seconds left to make its selection, Denver was offered $2.25 million, a league record for the sale of a 34th pick, from the Houston Rockets.

Houston instructed the Nuggets to select Sergio Lllul with the pick.
