Nets: John Wall Pg
Theres alot of speculation that evan turner could go at this spot but i see the nets taking john wall hes just got too much star player potential to pass up on.
Minnesotta: Evan Turner Sg
The hands down pick at number two is turner, this kids a stud and can flat out play, some people have compared him to tyreke evans in the sense that he can get to the basket and would create matchup problems at the 1 but after last years point guard heavy draft for the wolves, look for them to take turner and put him at the two next to johnny flyyn.
Golden State: Greg Monroe Pf/C
Alot of people might think this is a high pick for monroe but i think as long as don nelsons involved in drafting, they will take a player that fits the offense the most, and that would be monroe seeing as hes a 7 foot point-center that can run the floor and finish or pass with ease, would work great in that run and gun offense next to steph curry and monta ellis
Washington: Demarcus Cousins C
The washington pick could go one of two ways, they could look to add a big with the departure of brendan haywood causing some size problems and a inside precesne that cousins can bring, or they could go for there need at small forward and take either wes johnson or Al-Farouq Aminu
Sacramento: Wes Johnson Sg
This could also be an interesting pick, the kings have some size problems and need a big who is going to be a good low post defensive presence and that could either be cole aldrich or possibly hassan whiteside but at the 5 pick that would be a little high to pick either and the kings real need is a star player complementary to tyreke evans and wes johnson can be taken here and used as a shooting guard that the kings need since trading kevin martin but he might be the only "star" calliber player left on the board at this point.
Detroit: Cole Aldrich C
This could be a high risk high reward pick for detroit but this defensive minded big has "detroit" written all over him, the way he plays defense, his toughness, he would be a good fit for the pistons
Philadelphia: Derrick Favors Pf
Philadelphia has alot of needs here but most of all needs a star type player, and favors could either turn out one of two ways, a star big that we will talk about for years, or a bust, hes not a complementary player or a role player, hes a star or bust, and philadelphia has a history of taking players like that most recently jrue holiday although they got him as a steal at a good position of pick.

I can't see the Pistons passing on Favors under any circumstance. Aldrich looks to be solid, but Favors already is an NBA caliber athlete with way more upside. He's top 4 talent, and I'm willing to be he goes top 5.
Monroe, if he declares, won't go nearly that high.
If you switch Favors and Monroe, this looks more realistic.

No way Monroe goes over Cousins or Favors.

Re: Mock Draft V1
monroe is a good fit for the warriors though, if they traded down maybe it would make more sense yeah but was mike conley a good pick at number 4 a couple years ago? no memphis needed a point guard, ala a good fit.

Re: Mock Draft V1
Good fit isn't the same as need. Memphis needed a PG badly, and he was the clear BPA (many thought ATL should have taken him ahead of Horford).
Monroe wouldn't go above Cousins or Favors.
I could see them trading down to get him +.
