Congratulations to Nik!  Great work ethic & persistence does in fact pay off.  Thoughts on his NBA future?

You've got a point, but in that case the anticipation just shifts to social media rather than the official radio or television broadcast.  Then radio & television is used merely to confirm what the social media is saying.

I understand your point, but watching on TV is the best way. Like, I cannot stand it when ESPN decides to show the player on TV and on his phone with tears and a smile before the pick is announced. That ruins the anticipation of the official announcement. I know this country is obsessed with drama and shit like that (which is why reality TV is unfortunately popular), but I wish they would quit doing that.

Cowtown.  What an awful place for Nik to have to live.....at least he won't have any distractions from basketball.

I don't know whether to think "ok, he wouldn't have been around at 9 when the Pistons picked anyway" or "dammit that was where the Pistons were supposed to pick if not for Cleveland's dumb-ass luck."

Not the flashiest city but there won't be too much pressure. It'll be a great first step to grow and develop for his big second contract in much more exciting surroundings.
