Final Mock!

1. Orlando:                Dwight Howard 6-10 240 PF GA HSSr.

Note: The Magic's could use Okafor's defense inside but Howard could have an upside that is to big to pass up! It is still unclear who will be the be #1 pick.

Alternatives: PF Dwight Howard, SF Luol Deng

Important Note:  The Magic's Are Very Close To Trading Tracy McGrady, Juwan Howard, Andrew DeClercq and Tyronn Lue for The Rockets: Cuttino Mobley, Steve Francis and Kelvin Cato. Trade is rumored to be all but official!    More.........

                                         

2. Charlotte BobCats:   

                                                          Emeka Okafor 6-9 252 PF UConn Jr.

(Official Trade! The BobCat aquired the 2nd pick this years NBA draft from the Clippers.)

Note: The Bobcat would get the player they wanted if the Magics goes with Howard with the first pick.

Alternatives: F Luol Deng, G Shaun Livingston, G Ben Gordon

3. Chicago:           Andre Iguodala 6-6 207 SG/SF Ariz. So.

Note: Iguodala is a shut down on the ball defender with great Athleticism 2 things the Bulls also lacked in 2004. Iguodala has also been compaired to Scottie Pippen because of his shut down defense and his ball handling skills. Would be a great fit!

Alternative: G/F Josh Childress, G/F Andre Iguodala, , G Shaun Livingston, PF Dwight Howard

The Bulls have aquired the #7 Pick also in this years Lottery for their 2nd round pick and a future 1st round pick.

4.  LA Clippers:

                                                     Shaun Livingston 6-7 175 PG IL HSSr.

Note: The Clippers are looking for a PG and Livingston's Potential is amazing, this could be a perfect fit for both Livingston and the Clippers. Either way the Clippers will be draft a PG with this pick, either Harris, Gordon or Livingston.

Livingston potential is amazing, 6-7 PG similar to Penny Hardaway early in his career with excellent ball handling skills. Livingston should consider going to Duke for a year and adding bulk to his very thin frame, but with a chance to be a Top 5 pick that is doubtful.

Alternatives: PF Dwight Howard, F Luol Deng, G/F Josh Childress

5.  From Washington :   

                                                             Luke Jackson 6-7 215 SG/SF Oregon Sr.

Note: The Wizards could use help inside at Center but Podkolzine is not worth the 5 pick in the draft. Either the Mav's will add another Shooter in Jackson or they add defense and goes with Iguodala or a replacement for Nash in Devin Harris.

Alternatives:  C Pavel Podkolzine, PG Devin Harris, 

Important Note: Keep a very close eye on this pick, the Mav's and the Lakers could be very close to a blockbuster deal for Shaq. Now with Stackhouse on the roster, one player that is probably on the way out is Michael Finley. Either way, Mav's are in a great position to get this deal done!

The Mavericks Traded For The 5th by trading 6th Man Antwan Jamison for the 5th Pick, Christian Laettner and Jerry Stackhouse. More..........
 

6.  Atlanta:          Luol Deng 6-8 220 SF Duke Fr.   

7. From Phoenix:         Ben Gordon 6-2 185 PG UConn Jr.

The Bulls could trade this Pick to the Pacers, Wizards or even the Mav's for for Al Harrington, Jarvis Hayes or Michael Finley. Also been rumored that the Bull have been trying to aquire Paul Pierce. If Luke Jackson is still available at 7 then the Bulls could go with him and draft Gordon at #2. Should be a very interesting draft for the Bulls.

8.  Toronto:       Devin Harris 6-3 185 PG Wisconsin Jr.    

9.  Philadalphia:  Jameer Nelson 6-0 193 PG St. Joseph's Sr.

10.  Cleveland:   Josh Childress 6-7 205 SG/SF Stanford Jr. 

11. Golden State:   Andris Biedrins 6-11 240 PF/C (Lat) 1986  

                                        

12.  Seattle:          Pavel Podkolzine 7-3 303 C (Russia) 1985  

13.  Portland:    Josh Smith 6-8 220  SF Smyrna, GA HS Sr.  

14.  Utah:           Kirk Snyder 6-6 219 SG Nevada  

                                     

15.  Boston:       Sergei Monya 6-7 220 SG (Russia)

16.  Utah:            Robert Swift 7-0 245 C CA HSSr.
17.  Atlanta:     JR Smith 6-5 210 SG Newark NJ HSSr.

20.  Denver:    Peja Samardziski 7-0 260 C (Maced) 1986 

21.  Utah:    Dorell Wright 6-7 190 SG/SF CA HSSr.

22.  New Jersey:  Viktor Khryapa 6-8 205 SF (Russia)1982

     

                                              

23.  Portland:       Sebastian Telfair 5-11 170 PG NY HSSr. 

24.  Boston:  Kris Humphries 6-9 238 PF Minnesota Fr.

25.  Boston:    Anderson Varejão 6-10 230 PF (Bra) 1982
 

26.  Sacramento:  Peter Ramos 7-4 260 C (P.Rico) 1985

27.  LA Lakers:       David Harrison 7-0 260 C Colorado Jr.
