Last time I made this thread (2014 (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=329651)) I was permabanned for unknown reasons and was unable to finish mock draft heading into the actual event. Hopefully, I'll be able to finish this one.

I don't think Russell goes ahead of Mudiay, scouts were already worried when they saw him get locked up by Arizona. If you're gonna take a PG in the top 5 these days he'd better be an athletic freak.
The Nugs would be thrilled to get Winslow all the way at 6.

I'm judging this mock off of team needs as well.
Rubio and Mudiay would be a match made in shooting hell.
If Russell can develop to what scouts are hoping, which is a dynamic scoring combo guard, then Minnesota would be fools not to take him. The Timberwolves have their center position locked down with Pek and Dieng. The PF position has Payne and Bennett still developing. The SF position has Wiggins and Muhammad. That leaves the guard position that could use youth for the future, especially with Kevin Martin on the block.

You don't trade down two spots unless another team is dying for Cauley-Stein, which they aren't.
I don't know what you have against WCS, but he's just as good as any second tier prospect in this draft. He'd be your best rim protector since Dwight. Vucevic is ass on defense, and you guys are not winning games with him patrolling the paint. You add WCS to Orlando and you get a rim protector, a big man that can switch the PnR, and an athletic PnR Roller that drives to the basket fearlessly for Elf. You'd be retarded to draft either Stanley or Winslow who both are average shooters to start for a team that's already a horrible shooting team.

Minnesota is in no way concerned about their wing position, and I'm not sold that Winslow is that much of a game changer that he's worth drafting over D'Angelo Russell.

He's definitelly, he's just not scorer.
He does everything else amazingly well (good defender, excelent passer, good rebounder for a guard).
(But the point is, he got an extension so.. he will stay).
Wiggins have been wandering at 2 and 3, but he's definitelly a SG.

Pek has had injury problems but his previous two seasons he's averaged 18/10 and 20/10 per36, respectively. Both seasons with a PER of 20 and a decent TS%.
Isn't that basically what NBA scouts are expecting out of Okafor? And forget trading Pekovic, with his injury woes and his contract Minnesota isn't gonna have leverage. They aren't gonna get valuable assets back for Pekovic, if he's dealt it'll be because Minnesota wants cap relief and a team desperately needs Pekovic or whatever asset is attacked to him.
If D'Angelo Russell can live up to the potential of being a 6-5 combo guard that can pass, handle, rebound, shoot, drive, and is left handed then teams would be foolish to pass up on him. Okafor maybe appealing because his post game is exactly what certain TNT Analysts have been glamouring over and have been pointing out what has been missing from today's game, but his style of play doesn't win. You cannot and will not win as a team with a low post center leading your team in touches in today's league. It doesn't even matter if Minnesota wants to win now or not, you don't crowd one position without certainty that you can reduce the players in said position. The worse thing going into the preseason is learning how to distribute minutes between one offensive center that has solidified himself, one defensive center that is proving himself, and one hyped rookie that wants to prove himself. It's even harder when none of them can play together.

I'm not as impressed in Kelly Oubre's game as other people seem to be. I watched some of his in-game highlights and I wasn't please how much of his offense didn't come off the dribble. He's left handed, can shoot the college three, and can finish over college players, sounds a lot like Kentucky James Young (who currently has been relegated to the D-League). Maybe that'll translate into something in the NBA level, maybe it won't.
I just looked up who nbadraft has him compared to and I was surprised. Kendall Gill and JAMES YOUNG. I'm trying not to take that comparison to heart, but from what I watched he looks exactly like James Young in his Kentucky days.
I'm just not seeing why Kelly is deserving of his hype.

I'm watching D'Angelo Russell and I don't wanna say he's a young James Harden, but he's a young James Harden. Harden (who had the advantage of strength and driving) was indeed a natural SG, but Russell is just wowing me.
Russell is able to see over defenses which is an immediate advantage for PGs. He can make that pocket pass, he can make no lookers, he makes the bullet passes, he makes the Kevin Love cross court passes, if there is any major concern of him being an NBA PG then throw those concerns out the window. One small concern I'll address is that can get flustered against great defense or doubles, he needs to refine if split-second decision making if he hopes to solidify himself as a PG.
Russell scores in a plethora of ways. He shoots the pull up three, he shoots jumpers coming off screens, he shoots spotted up, he shoots off the dribble, his release is quick. He does need to get better at finishing at the rim, he isn't as explosive as say Damien Lillard, but seeing a guy like Isaiah Thomas, who is under 6', be able to finish over NBA players so I won't say its impossible for D'Angelo Russell to refine his driving game and find his go-to move to at the rim. He also isolates his offense from his right hand. He's gonna need that to keep defenses on his toes.
I'm certain his draft range is 2-4. His ceiling is lower that Mudiay, but the difference is that Russell's weaknesses are more easily fixable. D'Angelo Russell will probably lead all perimeter rookies in scoring and efficiency, even if he's the first guard off the bench for Minnesota.

I don't love okafor as a prospect but see Minnesota as maybe the best fit for him. If they're top 2 they go for one of the bigs.
Don't see oubre being picked before dekker or Stanley Johnson.
I want to like delon wright (I like big pg's) but I don't think he is strong or quick enough for his height to be an advantage. Good all around game though and plays pretty smart so maybe I'm wrong about his athletic ability and then maybe he could be a rotation guy.
Looking forward to the lottery so that possible trades could be thought of. I really hope the Knicks win pick 1 and trade down. I want to see them end up w Russell or wcs plus Lavine and bjelica or wroten and another pick(s). Nugs I love the pick you have and think they should hope for Winslow or wcs

Just watched some tapes of Winslow.
Can't come up of a better comparison that a left handed Jimmy Butler. When people said he had the fearless motor of Russell Westbrook I ignored it, but now I believe the hype. Question is can he play that way during an 82 game season. Westbrook can because he's a freak of nature and recovers from injury like he's Superman. Winslow likes to get into the teeth of the paint then go up to finish. It'll be interesting how he finishes over NBA defenses. I don't know if he has the ability to create for himself off the dribble without an open driving lane, because he didn't showcase it. He shoots the three well.
I see him falling, not because of his skillset, but Orlando and Sacramento are focusing on bettering their putrid #26 and #27 respectively ranked Defensive Efficiency Ranking. Assuming they have a sensible brain, Willie Cauley-Stein are #1 on their big boards. If he's off the board I see Sacramento attempting to fill the position that has been lifeless since the days on Chris Webber, and that's the PF position. The fact that Winslow plays the same position of Top 10 SF Rudy Gay, 2013 lottery pick Ben McLemore, and 2014 lottery pick Nik Stauskas doesn't help his case at all.

Delon Wright had a great college season, everything you'd want from a big PG. I don't think he'll be an All-Star from what I watched, but he can be a really good complementary player to a SG (or in my case Russell Westbrook) both offensively and defensively.

Dude can knock down shots from anywhere on the court, he just needs to build up his confidence. His back to the basket game was also much better than expected and kept improving. Just needs to work on his handles to penetrate, along with the aforementioned confidence.
Defensively though, dude will be the second best F defender in this class, behind Rondae Hills-Jefferson. Dude is lanky, his defensive awareness is off the charts, lateral quickness is there and isn't afraid to challenge anyone. He's going to be hell to try to pick & roll off of as he can switch or hedge greatly.

I don't like my PFs lanky. The quicker he builds muscle the better his chances are getting NBA minutes.
I don't see him averaging 20 points a game, but I do see himself as a David West-lite player (in terms of skillset). His hype coming into CBB so high that he couldn't fufill expectations during the CBB season and now that the season is over he's left people like me unsatisfied and wanting more.

I'm torn between Sacramento, Charlotte, and Miami. I have no idea who or how they'll draft. I had no idea for Sacramento or Charlotte last year when they took Nik Stauskas and Noah Vonleh respectively, and Miami hasn't drafted in a while and they are usually inconsistent with their picks.
I wanna say there's no chance for the Kings to draft ANOTHER wing after they traded for one two seasons ago and drafted two wings the past two drafts, but the Sacramento draft room fails to not surprise me.
Charlotte being ran by Michael Jordan says enough.
I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Miami trade their pick and attach it with Josh McBob just to get him and his sour legacy as a Heatle away from Miami. The Heat saw how difficult it is to have three PGs who all deserve minutes on your roster, so I can't see them taking another one. I can't see Miami draft a PF/C with their hopes that Chris Bosh and Hassan Whiteside are on the team the next five years. There isn't a SG in the postition Miami is in that would make them think that he could replace Dwyane Wade and lead Miami. The SF position will be hit-or-miss.
I'm not a fan of Miami's position and their potential expectations for their draftee, but it is better to have a pick then be left without one.

Mudiay doesn't fit the Triangle at all with his inability to shoot.
KP on the other hand can stretch the floor and protect the rim. He's really explosive off the ground and runs the floor really well, which is rare for international players. He can truly play either PF or C in the NBA, he just needs to get stronger in his upper body to play C consistently.
It's hard to compare him to a player in today's league because he's so unique. Imagine a slightly bigger Kevin Durant clone without the ability to handle the ball.

Hasn't Phil Jackson been fined this season for talking about Russell?

Karl Anthony-Towns is unlike ANY player in the league.
Defends
Passes
Rebounds
Blocks Shots
Turns over both shoulders
Runs the floor
Midrange J
Efficient FT shooter
He has all the intangibles to be a star player in the NBA. If he showcased killer passion for the game (rookie Kevin Garnett mentality) in Kentucky he'd be a lock for #1, regardless I still have him going first to Minnesota to pair with Andrew Wiggins and be mentored by The Big Ticket.

Some crazy is good for you, in my opinion. That drive of wanting to mentally defuse your opponent is what inspires teammates and turns you into an instant leader.

There's not a chance in hell the Knicks take a European big. Reality needs to factor into these things, no?

You guys drafted Gallo at #6 in 2008 so what's the problem?
KP plays like a NBA SG but is the size of a C.
