    Bulls need pg, rules favor perimeter players now.

    O.J. Mayo

    Memphis needs a big man.

  • 6
    Danilo Gallinari

    Multi-skilled foreign player could help D'Antoni build "Suns East."

    Insurance in case Livingston does not return to form.

    Joe Alexander

    Will fit in nicely with Skiles' attitude.

    Nice complement for Okafor.

    You may be right but if I understand the rules of the contest correctly the winner will be the person who gets the most picks correct starting with number one, so if I got the first nine right I will be in pretty good shape :)

    Eh i liked it up till #10 chalmers, hibbert, ajinca all reaches. At the same time mocks are impossible becasue i see many trades (blazers, GS, T-wolves etc....) so its to hard to call. Solid mock though

    dude on espn says the warriors are goiing to get Kosta Koufos but i really doubt it and hope they dont. hes big and slow and the games i saw, he got beasted on in the big 10. he would nt fit with the warriors. i am kind of hoping that the warriors get augistine (sorry for spelling) from texas. hes a pg who he can learn from baron for a year (if baron stays) and could give the warriors one of the quickest guard combos in the game, and a bright future.

    The Heat will not take Beasley at All! and you dont have Bayless in the top 14 he will be a top 6 pick. This leads me to believe you know nothing about the Nba or the upcomming draft.

  • ybrss09 said June 26, 2008

    We'll see what happens with Beasley but I think that you are right that it was a mistake to leave Bayless out. If you check out my site then you know that I follow the NBA a lot more closely than I follow the NCAA; I filled out the mock draft on a lark when I saw the contest for the Oden jersey.

  • ybrss09 said June 27, 2008

    Well, the Heat took beasley second as I predicted and Bayless went 11th, not in the top six, so perhaps you don't know as much about the NBA Draft as you think that you do. I got six of the first eight picks exactly correct and I transposed four and seven or I would have had the top eight perfectly. Nine of the players I listed as top ten picks went in the top ten.
