terrance jones is likely gone before the celtics pick, but i guess you never know

For those of you who are interested, on nbadraft.net you can create your own mock draft which will be scored after the actual draft. Sounds like fun, and then we could share our results here

I like where Denver is picking. Seems like after the consensus 5-6 players the rest is a crap shoot. Would be happy with a few players but prefer the Nuggets to take one of the boom or bust picks. Really like the freshmen that are dropping, think guy's like Miller\Wroten\Teague would have had a chance to climb the boards next year if they went back to school.

Really like what Denver's been able to do in the middle of the pack that last little bit. Could go a long way if they picked another Lawson\Faried caliber player.

Where is PJIII going? I've seen mocks that have him going as low as 22 to the Celtics and as high as 5 or 6. I'd love for the Celtics or T'wolves to get him.

Every mock I've seen is completely different. Not even close. Tough to gauge who one's favorite team will draft unless you're a Hornets fan.

Definately not top 6. Beal, Drummond, Davis, Robinson, MGK, Barnes. Thats 6.

Couldn't agree more about that player. He has tremendous upside and real NBA potential. Great length. He's long with a tremendous wingspan. Gives you intangibles but still needs to work on his overall skillset. The question being will his skills translate to the NBA level. Still all in all, an excellent prospect at this spot in the draft.

I've seen a couple mock drafts of the Hornets taking Damian Lillard at 10. I think that sounds about right.

But if they dont end up re-signing Kaman or any big man for that matter, i'd probably take Meyers Leonard or Tyler Zeller.

you guys envision a lot of trades happening? seems like there's a lot of feeling out for potential maneuvering. this is the most interesting draft in a while. i bet teams have completely different big boards as there are a lot of different opinions out there. guys that are anywhere between 3-15 picks apart given who you talk to...

i was watching the draft recap on nba tv and they interviewed anthony davis and he said he aint shaving his unibrow. and he also trademarked fear the brow and raise the brow.

ive heard so many different names, including a surprising amount of SGs

[DuMa]

sullinger wasnt invited to the draft so you can pick his sorry ass up after the 15th or 20th pick. good luck with that by the way

[HylianNightmare]

interested to see who the magic grab with that 2nd rounder
