Mock Draft: Mark 5

Ok so this is the last mock before the draft, once again this is what teams should do not what they will do.

1 Clippers
Blake Griffin
Ht/Wt: 6-10 / 240 lbsPosition: PF/CTeam: OklahomaClass: Sophomore
No brainer

2 Grizzlies
Hasheem Thabeet
Ht/Wt: 7-2 / 260 lbsPosition: CTeam: ConnecticutClass: Junior
If Marc can move to PF they’ll be the new twin towers

3 Thunder
Ricky Rubio
Ht/Wt: 6-3 / 180 lbsPosition: PGTeam: DKV JoventutClass: International
He’ll make the team better and I think Westbrook can play with him at sg

4 Kings
Stephen Curry
Ht/Wt: 6-3 / 185 lbsPosition: PG/SGTeam: DavidsonClass: Junior
I saw if play live and trust me he’s the best pg left on the board

5 Timberwolves
James Harden
Ht/Wt: 6-4 / 218 lbsPosition: SGTeam: Arizona StateClass: Sophomore
They need a sg so take the best

6 Timberwolves
Brandon Jennings
Ht/Wt: 6-2 / 170 lbsPosition: PGTeam: ItalyClass: International
I don’t see Evans playing the point any better then Foye did so take a fast pg who can score

7 Warriors
Tyreke Evans
Ht/Wt: 6-5 / 205 lbsPosition: PG/SGTeam: MemphisClass: Freshman
I still don’t like Evans as a pg, but he does look good with the ball in his hands

8 Knicks
Jordan Hill
Ht/Wt: 6-9 / 210 lbsPosition: PFTeam: ArizonaClass: Junior
It doesn’t look like the Knicks are gonna resign Lee so waste no time in replacing him

9 Raptors
Demar DeRozan
Ht/Wt: 6-6 / 210 lbsPosition: SG/SFTeam: USCClass: Freshman
I like DeRozan a lot plus this is the Raptors weakest spot

10 Bucks
Jrue Holiday
Ht/Wt: 6-4 / 200 lbsPosition: PG/SGTeam: UCLAClass: Freshman
Need either a pg or pf and I think Holiday has the most upside of any left

11 Nets
Earl Clark
Ht/Wt: 6-9 / 220 lbsPosition: SF/PFTeam: Louisville
I’m pretty sure sf and pf are the Nets needs and Clark can help with both

12 Bobcats
BJ Mullens
Ht/Wt: 7-0 / 260 lbsPosition: CTeam: Ohio StateClass: Freshman
I really think the Bobcats should trade down to the Bulls for 16 and 26. I really like the idea of signing AI for two or three years so no need to reach for a sg. Mullens reminds me of Pau Gasol which is a still at 12 even if he takes some time to develop

13 Pacers
Jonny Flynn
Ht/Wt: 6-0 / 175 lbsPosition: PGTeam: SyracuseClass: Sophomore
Ford is always hurt the Pacers need to think about replacing him and who better to do it then his clone

14 Suns
James Johnson
Ht/Wt: 6-8 / 235 lbsPosition: PFTeam: Wake ForestClass: Sophomore
I think it’s time for rebuilding and Johnson gives them a good start

15 Pistons
Austin Daye
Ht/Wt: 6-10 / 190 lbsPosition: SF/PFTeam: GonzagaClass: Sophomore
This is also a rebuilding pick, but I don’t think the Pistons want to rebuild. Teams must forget only one team can win it every year and it’s not gonna be the Pistons year for a while

16 Bulls
DeJuan Blair
Ht/Wt: 6-7 / 250 lbsPosition: PFTeam: PittsburghClass: Sophomore
Gives them needed tuffness

17 76ers
Tywon Lawson
Ht/Wt: 6-0 / 175 lbsPosition: PGTeam: North CarolinaClass: Junior
Knows how to push it and how to win. Unstopable going down hill.

18 Timberwolves
Jeff Teague
Ht/Wt: 6-2 / 180 lbsPosition: PGTeam: Wake ForestClass: Sophomore
Already have their pg for the future, but Teague is just to good to pass on with Mullens gone.

19 Hawks
Eric Maynor
Ht/Wt: 6-2 / 165 lbsPosition: PGTeam: VCUClass: Senior
No more AC Law so maybe this time they’ll draft a good pg

20 Jazz
Tyler Hansbrough
Ht/Wt: 6-9 / 250 lbsPosition: PFTeam: North CarolinaClass: Senior
Best player left and Jazz could lose at least one of their pfs in the offseason

21 Hornets
Terrence Williams
Ht/Wt: 6-5 / 207 lbsPosition: SG/SFTeam: LouisvilleClass: Senior
Your new starting sg can even run point when Paul sits down

22 Trailblazers
Omri Casspi
Ht/Wt: 6-8 / 220 lbsPosition: SF/PFTeam: Macabbi Tel AvivClass: International
The Blazers traded up for somebody and not only do I think this is who it is, but this gives them
room to trade Outlaw and Webster

23 Kings
Gerald Henderson
Ht/Wt: 6-5 / 215 lbsPosition: SGTeam: DukeClass: Junior
Now the Kings will have a real honest to goodness backup sg

24 Mavericks
Chase Budinger
Ht/Wt: 6-7 / 190 lbsPosition: SG/SFTeam: ArizonaClass: Junior
Am I the only one left who actually likes Budinger, steal of the draft so far

25 Thunder
Taj Gibson
Ht/Wt: 6-9 / 210 lbsPosition: PFTeam: USCClass: Junior
The Thunder need more help up front and I seem to like Gibson more then most people

26 Bulls
Marcus Thornton
Ht/Wt: 6-4 / 205 lbsPosition: SGTeam: LSUClass: Senior
Maybe lose their best scorer in Gordon, but replace in with a proven scorer

27 Grizzlies
Patrick Mills
Ht/Wt: 6-0 / 175 lbsPosition: PGTeam: Saint Mary'sClass: Sophomore
I just realized the Grizzlies have no backup pg

28 Timberwolves
Sam Young
Ht/Wt: 6-6 / 215 lbsPosition: SFTeam: PittsburghClass: Senior
No centers worth taking here so go with the best player

29 Lakers
Nick Calathes
Ht/Wt: 6-5 / 185 lbsPosition: PG/SGTeam: FloridaClass: Sophomore
Lakers don’t need another player right now so they can keep him in Greece for a year or two

30 Cavaliers
Wayne Ellington
Ht/Wt: 6-5 / 194 lbsPosition: SGTeam: North CarolinaClass: Junior
I still like JJ at pf so again take the best player

Now since I like the Bobcats here is what they should do in the second round

40 Bobcats
Danny Green
Ht/Wt: 6-6 / 210 lbsPosition: SG/SFTeam: UNC Class: Senior

54 Bobcats
Jodie Meeks
Ht/Wt: 6-4 / 208 lbsPosition: SGTeam: KentuckyClass: Junior
