For those interested, we will be do our third annual mock draft competition where you make your projection on who gets drafted at each spot in the lottery.

The winner would gets the title of 2017 Suns Forum Mock Draft Champion (if they want it), as well as an And1 from everyone (hopefully)

Scoring:

This is golf, not bowling. Points are bad. And you will get points for how far off you were on that player being picked. For example, if you picked a guy to go 6th, and he went 10th, you get 4 points. The poster with lowest point total wins.

To Play:

This year, we have changed the submission format to make the results compilation automated. Rather than having you submit your list as a forum post, we've created a Google Form for you to fill out your picks with.

------> MAKE YOUR MOCK DRAFT SELECTIONS HERE <------

After you make your submission you'll be greeted with this page:



It is strongly recommended that you open the "Edit your response" link and bookmark it - this link is unique to your submission and can be used to make any edits at any time all the way up to the start of the draft

We encourage you to also post your mock draft order in this thread for discussion purposes - but remember whatever is in your Google Form submission is what will be scored.

If you have any queries or concerns about the submission, feel free to ask them in this thread!

A huge thanks to batsmasher for creating the google doc. Impressive work there.

I have a terrible history with mocks, so definitely don't follow my picks, hahaha

Is everybody allowed to play and have a shot of being the winner no matter what your favorite team is? We all should know the real draft starts at the 3rd pick. Obviously Fultz is going #1 and Ball #2

3.Jackson
4.Tatum
5.Fox
6.Isaac
7.Monk
8.Ntilikina
9.DSJ
10.Markannen
11.Mitchell
12.Zach Collins
13.Patton
14.Bam Adebayo

So I see we already have some Suns entries so far but no one has posted their picks in the thread here. Post them here too...you know we have to have a little discussion of picks, trash talking and all that, so post your picks...be bold!

You can change them up until the draft, as mentioned in the first post....as long as you keep your personalized edit link to also change them in the google doc as explained in the first post.

Sixers - Fultz
Lakers - Ball
Boston - Jackson
Phoenix - Tatum
Kings - Fox
Magic - Isaac
Wolves - Markkannen (this is tricky because if Isaac doesn't fall I think they trade this pick)
Knicks - Ntilikina (perfect triangle pg)
Mavs- Smith
Kings- OG Anigbougu (a little early but the kings can afford to gamble)
Hornets - Monk
Pistons - Zach Collins
Nuggets - Mitchell
Heat- John Collins

1. Markelle Fultz
2. Lonzo Ball
3. Josh Jackson
4. Jonathan Isaac

14. Justin Jackson

1. Fultz
2. Ball
3. Tatum
4. Jackson
5. Fox

Nearly went with a bolter like Leaf or Bam going higher, but went with some standard answers but a slight surprise at 3 with Isaac. So if Celtics pass on Tatum I think he slips a tiny bit.

I'd be happy with any of the top 3 SFs to be honest. Slightly concerned when I see Josh Jackson I see a bigger Corey Brewer - I remember we all wanted him out of College and his shot never came on...

Yeah, I wasn't sure if you just hadn't read the first post or were waiting to submit until you finalized. But if you saved the personalized edit link you could change.
