Gimmie Your Mock
By Marcus Thompson
Thursday, June 25th, 2009 at 11:54 am in Uncategorized.
By now, you’ve probably read a thousand mock drafts. You’ve heard all kinds of draft talk and criticized the opinions of everyone who disagrees with you. Now, it’s time to show your stuff.
The draft is tomorrow afternoon. You have until then to post your mock draft of the lottery. Let’s see which of you have the courage to put his or her name on a mock. Let’s see who really knows what they are talking about and who is just hatin’ on the rest.
(Of course, I’d venture to say that all of you will probably have a more accurate mock than me!)
Predict the selections for 1 through 14. If you are so bold as to predict a trade, that’s fine, too. But you will be credited when you correctly pick where the player is selected. The scoring will go like this: 1 point for correctly predicting the first pick; 2 points for correctly predicting the second pick on down to 14 points for correctly predicting the 14th pick.
1. Clippers – Blake Griffin, Oklahoma
2. Grizzlies -

Hey Tony Hicks….thanks for the chuckle…why don’t we scrounge around in some drug rehab or alleyway and find Chris Washburn too….NBA body, ten cent brain….the Warriors have Never done right with a pick this high….Joe Smith anyone? Long career, not a star….Mike Dunleavey, once labeled cant miss by USA Today headlines….Sprewell? Drafted later….Hardaway, Pietrus, ditto….they’ll blow it so they might as well trade it down as someone else said and maybe get an Earl Clark….
June 25th, 2009 at 2:53 pm
Trading down and getting Earl Clark would be good….

I’m a NBA blogger and have a full first round mock ready to rock, check it out at: http://kcsportsmediarant.blogspot.com/2009/06/okay-i-know-i-slammed-mock-drafts.html

Marcus…………any merit to the A’mare rumors??
I heard a little bit on ESPN and some bloggers talking about it.
Wow……….that would be amazing…….
That would change our franchise……..no question.
Depending on who we keep to surround…….but any starting 5 with A’mare, Ellis and Randolph is just about as talented as they come.
June 25th, 2009 at 3:37 pm
Perry I see your finally coming over to the darkside with keeping AR…Yesssss, The possibility of Amare, AR, and MOnta, and my personal pick B.Jennings would be an awesome line-up. Think of all the fastbreak dunks and and-1 fouls the dubs would get on the break. Even if Amare doesn’t play D, I think AR can make up for it.
June 25th, 2009 at 4:00 pm
NO AMARE!!!!! ONE KNEE AND ONE EYE DOWN ALREADY!!!!!Can’t shoot, doesnt board like he should, wants touches everytime down? he aint a young chris webber…he’s closer to a smaller less intimidating Dwhight Howard…you know? the one who was exposed really badly because he can only do 2 things on offense? Keep Andris, Keep, AR, wright can be bait if you could get something, keep monta, give maggette away if someone will have him!

7. Warriors – Johnny Flynn!!!!!!!!!!!Give him the keys to this machine and lets roll!
8. Knicks – Johnny Flynn
9. Raptors – Demar Derozan
10. Bucks – Jrue Holliday
11. Nets – James Johnson
12. Bobcats – Terrance Williams
13. Pacers – Earl Clark

Johnny Flynn is the only PG outside of Rubio that has the IQ and natural skill to run this offense.
June 25th, 2009 at 4:11 pm
The injuries are on my mind as well, “JT”…..with A’mare…..I’m not stupid….I know he’s injury prone.
But he would be the best player on our team and he is better than any other player on our team…..hands down.
Also, I’m always pushing for a 4th quarter “go to” scoring option…….. I think A’mare is closer to that than any other player on our roster…..even with 1 eye.

I got 5 right.
#1,#2,#9,#11,#13 = 36 pts
Just quickly looking at the others, Burke kicked ass. I think he won.
