Go read the Chad Ford report on OJ Mayo as, I have been saying this for a while now, the draft will go
1. Rose/Beasley
2. Rose/Beasley
3. Mayo
4. Anyone

And explain to me the following picks:
NJ Darell Arthur considering they have Williams/Boone
Bucks with Love considering they drafted Yi last year

No way the Kings reach for Douglas-Roberts with Gallinari, Augustin, Speights and MgGee (who you left off) still on board. And those are just the most obvious ones.

Dumars may just go for BPA- and Im against that. But if he does draft a guard Id rather it be a true point capable of running the offense and Mario Chalmers just isnt that guy, Id rather go for Ty Lawson- who is still on the board.

Also about this mock- Javele McGee is WAY too low- he is a lotto pick, as is DJ Agustin. Galinari is to low too. Robin Lopez is too highh as is Bayless, Kevin Love, Joey Dorsey and Devon Jefferson.

Did Portland trade their pick to Minny or something? Because unless it's a 3-way, I don't think Portland would have any reason to trade with the 'Wolves.

McGee as a lottery pick is not written in stone. There are 14+ players I would take before him:

1. Beasley
2. Rose
3. Mayo
4. Bayless
5. Gordon
6. Lopez
7. Love
8. Arthur
9. Randolph
10. Speights
11. Gallinari
12. Augustin
13. Westbrook
14. Green.

And there are more....
