2016 Mock Draft Competition - Results in first post...STEV13 wins! And1 time! 

Post#1 » by bwgood77 » Mon Jun 20, 2016 7:16 pm

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

But lowest point total wins.

The winner would get a great prize. An And1 from everyone (hopefully) :D

You can edit lists up until the beginning of the clock for the first pick or several minutes before so I can quote picks to lock them in.

For an example here is a link to last year's competition. viewtopic.php?f=27&t=1394673

Standings

STEV13 44 Everyone go give him an And1!

#1 - Philadelphia 76ers - Ben Simmons
#2 - Los Angeles Lakers - Brandon Ingram. All that LA having second workouts story is smoke.
#3 - Boston Celtics - Kriss Dunn, via trade. So, not to the Celtics.
#4 - Phoenix Suns - Dragan Bender
#5 - Minnesota Timberwolves - Jamal Murray (risky pick. They wanted Dunn, and they have Thibs. They need shooting, but at the expense of defense ?)
#6 - New Orleans Pelicans - Buddy Hield (Gordon is out. They need shooters and or scorers)
#7 - Denver Nuggets - Marquese Chriss (Denver is well balanced. Can take the highest risk and longest maturity project)
#8 - Sacramento Kings - Dejounte Murray (because it's Sac and they reach for need and have no clue. And end up having the biggest luck cause he will be awesome)
#9 - Toronto Raptors - Domantes Sabonis (they need production now)
#10 - Milwaukee Bucks - Jacob Poeltl ((Monroe is out of their long term plans. They need a decent center)
#11 - Orlando Magic - Skal Labissiere (Orlando needs shooting and blocking ability. Good fit)
#12 - Utah Jazz - Malachi Richardson (starting to take Hayward insurances, and they dont take Brown cause he didnt work out for them)
#13 - Phoenix Suns - Jaylen Brown - (He fell that far...most likley will be a trade for him earlier, though)
#14 - Chicago Bulls - Deyonta Davis (solid pick for a position left open after Gasol and Noah are gone)


This came out pretty easily. Guess I reached the point where I have a notion about every player and feel comfortable spitting out shallow misinformed opinions about any of the prospects.

I'm heading to the Draft Thread !!!

Just noticed I completely missed Brown. Guess I'll put him at 8 for Sac, although I think they will be better off with DJ Murray

Sure, if you (or anyone else from outside the forum) wins though, we will also have a Suns forum specific winner as well.

Does that mean that if he's the only one to enter from another forum, he's still a winner?

Well if he wins it will be more just like he won the competition. But the winner for the Suns forum is ___________. I didn't really mean two separate winners lists. The Suns forum winner can get a special title if they want "Suns Form Mock Draft Champion 2016" or something if they want it.

V1

#1 - Philadelphia 76ers - Ben Simmons
#2 - Los Angeles Lakers - Brandon Ingram
#3 - Boston Celtics - Buddy Hield (I think this pick is traded to Philly, I don't see why Philly wants Dunn if they have Simmons, they need shooting)
#4 - Phoenix Suns - Kris Dunn (I think we're moving this pick or Bled/Knight)
#5 - Minnesota Timberwolves - Dragan Bender
#6 - New Orleans Pelicans - Jamaal Murray
#7 - Denver Nuggets - Jaylen Brown
#8 - Sacramento Kings - Marquese Chriss (I feel this is our dance partner)
#9 - Toronto Raptors - Jacob Poeltl
#10 - Milwaukee Bucks - Skal Labissiere
#11 - Orlando Magic - Henry Ellenson
#12 - Utah Jazz - Wade Baldwin
#13 - Phoenix Suns - Deyonta Davis
#14 - Chicago Bulls - Dejounte Murray

Thanks Ginobliflops for the template.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

For now...

#1 - Philadelphia 76ers - Ben Simmons
#2 - Los Angeles Lakers - Brandon Ingram
#3 - Boston Celtics - Kris Dunn (possibly for another team, but Ainge loves his shooting-challenged PGs)
#4 - Phoenix Suns - Dragan Bender (we keep this pick because Bender falls to us)
#5 - Minnesota Timberwolves - Jamal Murray (Timberwolves get the shooter they need and just get scarier and scarier)
#6 - New Orleans Pelicans - Buddy Hield (for Lakers in exchange for Russell)
#7 - Denver Nuggets - Jaylen Brown
#8 - Sacramento Kings - Marquese Chriss (and he gets to play with his idol, Rudy Gay)
#9 - Toronto Raptors - Domantas Sabonis (perfect fit here because he's NBA-ready and reminds of Scola)
#10 - Milwaukee Bucks - Skal Labissiere (Bucks continue to draft for length and skill)
#11 - Orlando Magic - Dejounte Murray (but traded to Knicks or someone for a vet)
#12 - Atlanta Hawks - Furkan Korkmaz
#13 - Phoenix Suns - Timothe Luwawu (possible stash; future PJ replacement / TJ complement)
#14 - Chicago Bulls - Wade Baldwin

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.
