The Official 2011 Cammo Mock Draft Thread

[Cammo101]

Cammo, I just saw Andy Katz on Sportscenter state that there is a real chance that Cleveland selects Williams with the #1... I know there is always a chance for everything, but do you see it happening? It would put Minny in a bad situation imo..

Do I see it happening? No. But, I have always considered it a possibility. Somewhere along the line it seems like ESPN decided Irving was the slam dunk #1 and he and Williams went from 1a and 1b to Irving being some lock #1.

Minnesota is in a bad spot regardless if they stay at #2 (which I doubt). They have no need for a point guard or a combo forward, and the 2 best prospects in the draft are just that. I would fully expect Minnesota to draft for value and take whichever of Williams and Irving fall to the #2 spot. They are not a good enough team to be drafting for need at the top of the draft. Add good, valuable players and figure out what to do with them later.

I don't see the Pistons taking Leonard, there hasn't been any indication that we're interested in him and with guys like Biyombo and Thompson left they would be more realistic picks. Selby in the second is pretty underwhelming. I understand the value but can we really add a 4th SG to the roster, even considering we took a perceived BPA SG in the early 2nd last year (Terrico White)? For me Norris Cole and Nolan Smith have just as much value at that point so I'd rather go with one of those guys. I don't care much about the 52nd pick so I guess Bogdanovic would be alright since he'll be able to develop in Europe a bit longer.

[Marino]

Yeah, Charlotte's biggest need is 3 point shooting, so we draft two big stiffs in the first round?

[shangrila]

I think Moore is a little underrated. He's not going to be a starter or anything but he looks like he has high level role player potential.

[ipoopinmypants]

No way Tobias Harris is worthy of a first round pick IMO.

Well that's where he's more than likely going.

[RIPskaterdude]

Why do you think that the Kings will pick Vesely over Leonard?

[spoonhoops]

I do like Knight, but I don't understand why the Jazz wouldn't take a leap of faith and grab an unknown in Kanter. It seems like the media and most mocks have Knight and it will probably happen, but I'd love to see a front court of Favors and Kanter with Singleton at the 3.

Al Jefferson is getting so underrated, people talk about him like he's an expendable player, but he never turns the ball over, put up 22/10 three years ago, 19/10 two years ago and 18/10/2 last year, while having a .500 FG%. I also think he can get back to 22/10. he had the best year of his career this year if you account for pace. He had the highes win share total of his career, he's a terrific player and no one gives him credit for it. I'm not sure Kanter ever puts up those numbers even though i like him, this is why i think the Jazz won't take kanter.

We'll take Tobias Harris thank you very much.

And thank you, Cammo, for not making us get Singler like all the other mocks. Seriously, I'd rather pick Harper instead of Singler.

I'd be shocked if Singler goes in the first round. Too limited, too poor of a shooter. He will be an early second round pick IMO.

Singler made a major mistake returning to Duke this year.

He might not be a 1st rounder, but he's an outstanding open shooter with 3 point range and very good offensive skills. His problem is that he's a tweener in a bad way - not quick enough at the 3 and not big and strong enough at the 4.

Luke Babbitt all over again

[Relentless88]

The Raptors will pass on Kemba Walker like it's been reported. Apparently they're not that high on him. The Raps list is down to Knight, Leonard, and Biyombo.
