Time to start drafterbating.

Merged with draft poll thread, but lost poll results, so feel free to pick your top choices again in the poll above. - bwgood77

Maybe we can get lucky and move up a couple spots to 10 or 11 if the ping pong balls fall our way and Kevon Looney will be there. That would be lovely

Oh, so you had to start a new one since mine fell to the second page? I don't know...Myles Turner maybe if he slides that far..Looney? Montrezl Harrell? Porzingis?

Hopefully not a pg unless it is an obvious BPA.

I get a better feel for college players down the NCAA stretch and especially the tourney. It's not always telling (the tourney) because Derrick Williams beat the crap out of Kyrie Irving in the sweet 16 but many times it tells you something about players.

There seem to be more bigs than usual, so hopefully we get some more size.

Just grab the best bigman that will slide (probably Turner for injury concerns) and call it a day.

Well there is a big bold statement there that says TEAMS HAVE NOT BEEN TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT and I had looked at draftexpress which I look at first, but I just found it funny they had two AZ guys going to Philly.

I just looked at Nbadraft.net for the first time this year and the first thing I saw was it showing us drafting a point guard named Isaiah. Needless to say I almost threw up in my mouth.

I'd be happy with Harrel or Lyles, if they are available at 13/14 where we'll be picking.
But knowing our luck we'll be picking 1st, so Okafor! :)

Willie Cauley-Stein or Myles Turner would be great pick-ups if they would slide to the end of the lottery.

While I'm hoping we go big, out of the guys that could potentially slip to the 13th-14th spot, I'm highest on Mario Hezonja.

I don't think that's possible. If we end up with the 14th pick, we can only get the 14th pick, or get lucky and get 3rd, 2nd or 1st. No in between.

Why has Cliff Alexander fallen so far in the mocks? I'm interested, though it makes more sense to get someone who can play 4 and 5.

I think we've got a chance to fall below DET, IND, and BKN if those teams are motivated.

What would be epic is if the ping pong balls bounced right and the Suns got top three pick, right in front of LA.
