I wasn't real happy with the pick at 9 originally but I've definitely warned up to it. We were SO close to Simmons at 9 as I was predicting... Zona had to go and mess that up for us.

I think his reaction to me is a guy who's trying not to look like a crying wuss on national TV. He was probably shaking he was so overcome with emotion and was just trying to keep it together.

Looked like he was maybe taking in the gravity of the situation and thinking it's time to go prove he's worth that pick. Probably a million things running through is mind but he was definitely tearing up.

I like our pick at 20 as well. Would've been doing cartwheels around my house if we got Simmons at 9 but overall I'm pretty happy. I wouldn't be suprised if we go offense the next cpl rounds.
