We mentioned last week that we were looking for “Guest Mocks”. Well today, we are posting one from a reader named, Luke A. He is from MN and wanted to share what he thinks, is a great mock. If you want your mock posted, remember to email sportstearsinourbeers@yahoo.com and we will get it up on the site.
Luke’s Mock –
1. Cleveland – Kyrie Irving (duh)
2. Minnesota – Derrick Williams (Al Harrington 2.0 - or revolutionary inside outside scoring force?)
3. Utah – Enes Kanter (I wish he was a little bit taller…I see similarities to Nene in his game)
4. Cleveland – Jonas Valanciunas (only downside is the tribulations of European contract buyouts, size plus motor will complement JJ Hickson well)
5. Toronto – Bismack Biyombo (will he be the creature we saw at the Nike Summit – or more like the role player he has been in Europe ?)
6. Washington – Jan Vesely (potential to be a great scorer on John Wall’s wing)
7. Sacramento – Brandon Knight (latest product of Coach Cal ’s NBA PG factory – moves Tyreke to the SG)
8. Detroit – Kawhi Leonard (Joe Dumars’ type of player – will replace Prince)
9. Charlotte – Tristan Thompson (seems underrated – not a tremendous ceiling, but should be very solid)
10. Milwaukee – Alec Burkes (will fit well between Jennings and Luc Richard)
11. Golden State – Chris Singleton (if ever a team needed a good defensive player…)
12. Utah Jazz – Kemba Walker (Devin Harris insurance)
13. Phoenix – Jordan Hamilton (Vince Carter replacement/Grant Hill insurance)
14. Houston – Klay Thompson (lots of upside, NBA DNA)
15. Indiana – Marshon Brooks (could be the steal of the draft)
16. Philadelphia – Jimmer Fredette (someone has to take this dud in the making – I predict guard version of Adam Morrison)
17. New York – Kenneth Fareid (brings a much needed defensive attitude to NYK, they’re lucky if he falls this far)
18. Washington – Marcus Morris (a nice piece at a position of need)
19. Charlotte – Tobias Harris (SF to pair with Thompson)
20. Minnesota – Nikola Vucevic (decent size, solid skill set)
21. Portland – Donatas Motiejunas (interesting Euro because he is more proven than potential – should be average/solid rotational big with legit size)
22. Denver – Markieff Morris (front court depth)
23. Houston – Charles Jenkins (small school scoring machine)
24. Oklahoma City – Kyle Singler (makes a good bench better)
25. Boston – Trey Thompkins (definitely big enough to fill the void left in the wake of Doofus Danny’s moronic trading of Perk, maybe too big?)
26. Dallas – Tyler Honeycutt (potential to replace Marion and Butler down the road)
27. New Jersey – Justin Harper (is he a 3 or a 4?)
28. Chicago – Josh Selby (he had lottery praise early in the year, great talent in the vein of a diet Monta Ellis, if he panned out, he could be an excellent sidekick to the MVP in the Bulls backcourt)
29. San Antonio – Nikola Mirotic (should fit nicely behind Richard Jefferson)
30. Chicago – Nolan Smith (Jay Williams, Chris Duhon … I see the pattern)
