We did a full competition last year, but it slipped through the cracks and I didn't think of trying to get one started earlier. Putting together a 14-pick mock is quick though and most of us that do this have already gotten a feel for what the team ahead of Detroit are supposedly leaning towards. So if anybody is interested post your lottery mock drafts and I will tally up the totals afterwards. I'm going to do it like this:

Correct pick and team: 3 points
Correct team only: 2 points
Correct pick number only: 1 point

For example, if the top five went like this:

1. PHI: Markelle Fultz
2. LAL: Lonzo Ball
3. SAC (trade): De'Aaron Fox
4. NY (trade): Josh Jackson
5. BOS (trade): Jason Tatum

And you had the following, the scoring is in brackets:

1. PHI: Markelle Fultz [3 points]
2. LAL: Lonzo Ball [3 points]
3. BOS: Jason Tatum [2 points]
4. PHX: Josh Jackson [1 point]
5. SAC: De'Aaron Fox [2 points]

Fairly simple, and gives an even chance at points for every pick in the lottery. Please use full names when filling out the mock. I will copy and quote entries just before the draft starts, so that's the deadline. Hopefully we can get enough to make this interesting. Good luck!

1) Sixers- Markelle Fultz
2) Lakers- Lonzo Ball
3) Celtics- Jayson Tatum
4) Suns- Josh Jackson
5) Kings- Deaaron Fox
6) Magic- Jonathan Isaac
7) Timberwolves- Zach Collins
8) Knicks- Frank Ntilikina
9) Mavs- Dennis Smith Jr
10) Kings- lauri Markanen
11) Hornets- Malik Monk
12) Pistons- Luke Kennard
13) Nuggets- Justin Jackson
14) Heat- Donovan Mitchell

1 Philadelphia 76ers - Fultz
2 Los Angeles Lakers - Lonzo
3 Boston Celtics - Tatum
4 Phoenix Suns - TRADE - #4 / Bledsoe (rerouted to Minny for Rubio) for Porzingis - Knicks take Josh Jackson
5 Sacramento Kings - Isaac
6 Orlando Magic - Monk
7 Minnesota Timberwolves - TRADE - #7 / Lavine / Dunn for Jimmy Butler - Bulls take D'Aaron Fox
8 New York Knicks - Ntilikina
9 Dallas Mavericks - TRADE - #9 / Wes Matthews for #12 / Reggie Jackson / Marcus Morris - Pistons take Dennis Smith Jr.
10 Sacramento Kings - Donovan Mitchell
11 Charlotte Hornets - Luke Kennard

Now that would be an exciting draft night

1-Markelle FUltz Phil
2-Lonzo Ball. LAL
3-Jason Tatum Bos
4-Josh Jackson Pho
5-Deaaron Fox Sac
6-Johnathon Issac Orl
7-Lauri Markanaan Minn
8-Malik Monk Ny
9-Frank Nkitilinia Dallas
10-Zach Collins Orl
11-Luke Kennard Cha
12-Dennis Smith Det
13-John Collins Den
14-Donovan Mitchell Miami

I want a pg, and frank, I'm biased. I really don't think jorden would pass a nc guy for a duke guy, but I'm going with it. If we can't get Frank or Smith I would take Mitchell. Or Markannan if he's there. I think we need to move Morris and Laur for Wilson chandler, and Jamal Murray.

1) Sixers- Markelle Fultz
2) Lakers- Lonzo Ball
3) Celtics- Jayson Tatum
4) Suns- Josh Jackson
5) Kings- Deaaron Fox
6) Magic- Malik Monk
7) Timberwolves- Jonathan Isaac
8) Knicks- Dennis Smith Jr
9) Mavs- Frank Ntilinka
10) Kings- Zach Collins
11) Hornets- Luke Kennard
12) Pistons- Donovan Mitchell
13) Nuggets- Justin Jackson
14) Heat- Lauri Markannen

It's going to be a crazy day. Just feels like it.

Okay, now entries are closed.

I did my tally on a spreadsheet with color coding, but here are the final results:

MotownMadness: 30 points
Southern Piston: 20 points
The Moose: 18 points
B Scott: 16 points
The Penguin: 14 points
mattao313: 10 points
coordinator: 9 points
JohnReese: 9 points

Congratulations MotownMadness! A very strong showing. Up until the 13th pick the only wrong choices were having Collins and Markkanen in the opposite spots. A total of 10 correct picks in the lottery is very good.

On my end... eh. I didn't do my homework as well as I have in past years and it showed.

Boom
