He is not, but he can defend SGs, I am kind of flexible with future positions at this point, I try to keep an open mind even if I believe they are more suited to another spot.
I actualized again by the way, RJ Hunter and Christian Wood out.

If that worked out for the Sixers I'd have a draftgasm, unfortunately I can't see Hezonja lasting till the Mia pick. Unless he stays for 2 years

Johnson above Winslow now? Is that just how you think it will turn out or have you reassessed?

It is more of a team fit kind of, I'd say

This reeks of your own opinion of where players should be drafted and not an actual mock. You cant possibly believe Tyus Jones will be going 9th. Obviously you are dead set on him being very good in the league and are going to go down with the ship but you cant possibly believe he actually gets drafted that high. Same thing with guys like Wille Cauley-Stein. Reeks of your own opinion of where he should go and not where he will actually go.

I have stated in the past that I always do my mocks trying to be the GM of everyteam when they draft and looking at my personal board of available players at that point.
I dont care to predict the future, because I cant.
I believe WCS will go anywhere from 12 to 25 in the Draft, and Tyus will go anywhere from 7th till 17th.
I dont think right now nybody ahas info to predict what might or might not happen, I am consistent with my rankings.

Nothing wrong with a "what would I do" draft, the issue is that "mock draft" has come to mean "attempt to replicate the actual order of drafting". So maybe just need to change the title.

When creating a mock draft whose opinion would you like the "draft maker" to use? He said he's trying to be the GM of each team, looking at needs and BPA (according to himself as any draft mock does). Maybe he isn't taking "hype" or "dumb GMs" into consideration (which would change picks to things he doesn't believe should happen), but he is still mocking the draft. It sounds like the two of you want him to agree with other people for some reason, the only question is why.

I don't think of a mock draft as an attempt to predict the future, darkknight. I see it as an attempt to rank the players. I.e. lets say Jordan Mickey turns out to be significantly better than Sam Dekker. Fischella gets a "See I told ya so" moment.

That said, I could barely write the phrase "Mickey... better than... Dekker" without laughing, which should tell you what I think of at least one of Fischella's rankings!

I have Dekker as barely a 1st rounder now, depending on who ends up declaring, Mickey is a lock to be a 1st in my board.
We will have to agree to disagree, I'd pick Mickey over Dekker anyday.

I must know ... why would you pick Cameron Payne for Utah? We already got a little inefficient chucker in Trey Burke, we don't need two.
