The title is self explanatory: The Coolest Titled Lottery Mock Draft You’ve Seen Yet
This is going on what the standings are, and is based on team needs, unlike NBADraftnet/DraftExpress/etc.
1. Charlotte Bobcats: Anthony “I have hair between my eyebrows” Davis
(quote) Analysis: (uquoute) Easy pick here. Anthony Davis is really, really, really, really, really, really, really, good. And he’s only 19.
2. Washington Wizards: Andre “I scare every single fan who’s team is picking in the top 5″ Drummond
“Analysis:” This one was really hard. I could see Washington going Kidd-Gilchrist here, but they also could pick Javale McGee 2.0, seeing as they got rid of the first Javale Mcgee. I might get some criticsm for this pick, but I think the Wiz draft potential, and Andre Dummond is oozing potential.
3. NEW ORLEANS HORNETS: Mike “Umso Umso Perfect” Kidd-Gilchrist
“Analysis:” The Hornets don’t have a glaring need at SF, but they pick the guy Monty Williams and Dell Demps will fall in love with. Since this is a PF heavy draft, and the Hornets have a need at the 4, they’ll probably be able to use the Minnesota pick on a PF.
4. Portland Trailbazers: Harrison “Noble and” Barnes
“Analysis:” I think the Blazers will take Harrison at this spot. They don’t really need a SF, with Batum ready to be unleashed on the usnsuspecting NBA, but they could play one of the two at more of a shooting forward role. Draft the talent!
5. Toronto Raptors: Thomas “6 foot 8″ Robinson
“Analysis:” T-Rob fits well for Toronto. Toronto needs talent, and there’s no denying Robinson’s talent.
6. Sacramento Kings: Jared ”I wish I would’ve declared last year” Sullinger
“Analysis:” I don’t know who to pick here. The Kings don’t really need to draft a player, because they have so much young talent. Jimmer, Tyreke, MARCUS THORNTON, Isaiah Thomas, Jason Thompson, DeMarcus, Donte Green, Terrence Williams… buuuuuuuuuut I’m going with Sully because he’s the most matured player that could concievably be picked here.
7. Detroit Pistons: Jeremy “Baby Sheep” Lamb
“Analysis:” The Pistons have a need for a competent shooting guard, and Jeremy Lamb seems to me like he could become a nice starter for them.
8. Cleveland Cavaliers: Bradley “Another Undersized Shooting Guard” Beal
“Analysis:” He has a playing style a lot like Eric Gordon, who the Cavs were going hard after before the deadline this year. Cleveland also has a bit of a hole at the 2, and Beal fills that quite nicely.
9. Utah Jazz: Austin “My Dad Could Beat Your Dad In A Game Of One-On-One” Rivers
“Analysis:” The third shooting guard in a row taken. This is just a perfect fit. The Jazz need a competent shooting guard, and Rivers should be able to contribute early.
10. Milwaukee Bucks: Meyers “Robin Lopez Without The Awesome Hair” Leonard
“Analysis:” After the trade of Andrew Bogut, the Bucks need someone at center to develop for the future. Meyers Leonard is 7 feet, and should make a serviceable starter as his ceiling.
11. Portland Trail Blazers: Tyler “I Hope Cody Doesn’t Declare” Zeller
“Analysis:” This is a little high for Zeller, but I’m sure his 20-20 game last night impressed a lot of scouts. The Blazers have a hole at center, and Zellers is a pretty pure center, in my book.
12. New Orleans Hornets: Perry “People Hate Me Because I’m Immature” Jones III
“Analysis:” Dell Demps has to be happy to see a guy with as much potential as Jones left on the board here. A 6’11 player that can defend all three frountcourt positions, but is too small to play center in the NBA, like Anthony Davis. Jones is athletic, and could pan out big down the road.
13. Utah Jazz: Damian “Next Eric Maynor” Lillard
“Analysis:” The Jazz could use some help at the guard spots. While Lillard won’t be as good a scorer as he was in college, his basement is an able role player, and his ceiling is a starter.
14. Houston Rockets: Quincy “No, My Last Name Isn’t Acy” Miller
“Analysis:” The Rockets weakest position is center, but since there isn’t a center worth being picked here, I decided to go with Quincy Miller, the athletic small forward with great size. His frame reminds me of Kevin Durant, and the two are the same height.
That rounds out my Lottery Mock Draft, maybe I’ll do the last 16 picks, but I’ll probably forget. This will have quench your knowledge appetite for now. I’M OUT.
