I know this technically may not be an Arizona topic. This is a big night for the Cats, though. Adding another lottery pick to the legacy and seeing where or if Nick will go.

I'll be watching.

I have a bad feeling about Nick, but I hope I'm wrong.

Silver really has been pushing all the right buttons so far. Push through the two year rule and he'll really be in my good graces. Congratulations to Aaron, fingers crossed for Nick!

This Silver guy is making it very easy to forget Stern.

There are some serious jokers getting drafted ahead of NJ.

What a difference a final four appearance makes for some of these bums.

Good for Nick. For an undersized shooting guard with an inconsistent jump shot, at least he gets his opportunity. Most likely ends up in the D League and later in Europe, but at least it is another drafted Wildcat on the books.

NJ still should have returned to school. I wish him the best in what ever league he ends up. He went out of his way to meet my 3 year old daughter who is in love Nicky J as she calls him.

I am not so sure about that, the Rockets were horrible on defense and it cost them in the playoffs this year, if Nick goes in balls out and shows he can play some defense I think he will stick and get minutes at least as a role player.

"What has Nick Johnson possibly accomplished that is greater than the accomplishments of Jahii?" asks Jahii and Jahii' s mommy?

And the list grows by adding "drafted by NBA"

Thing is Jahii has the talent, it is his mouth that cost him about ten million dollars this evening.

He consistently played poorly throughout the year. A lot more than his mouth contributed to his undrafted status.
