This is (Not) a 2015 NBA Mock Draft (or please, please please don't draft...ah hell, do whatever you want, we won the Title!)
Tuesday, June 23, 2015
As I do each year, here would be my Round One of the NBA Draft were I selecting for each team.
It's not prognostication.
Normally, I'd include something about who I want the Warriors to avoid. That seems less important this year for some reason.
1. Minnesota KA Towns C UK
2. LA Lakers D.Russell PG Ohio St.
-Russell's my top guy on the board, not by a lot, not enough that Minnesota shouldn't take Towns, but I like him enough over Okafor that the Lakers, who really should be acquiring assets, should take him.
3. Philadelphia E.Mudiay PG China
4. New York J.Okafor C Duke
5. Orlando K.Porzingis PF Latvia
-The real draft goes smoother than this when the Lakers take Okafor. Here, the Sixers who can't use him instead take the second best PG. The Knicks are good with any of the available options; I don't know about fit with Porzingis and the Magic, but these are the top 5 players on the board. in some 2-5 order they go.
6. Sacramento D.Wright PG Utah
7. Denver F.Kaminsky C Wisc
-These guys aren't going this high; once we get by the first five, then my valuation starts to diverge from what you're likely to see.
8. Detroit M. Turner PF Texas
9. Charlotte M.Hezonja SG Croatia
10. Miami S.Dekker SF Wisc
11. Indiana B. Portis PF Ark
12. Utah C.Payne PG Murray St.
13. Phoenix D.Booker SG UK
14. OKC J.Winslow SF Duke
15. Atlanta W.Cauley-Stein C UK
16. Boston S.Johnson SF Ariz
17. Milwaukee RJ Hunter SG Geo St.
18. Houston T. Jones PG Duke
19. Washington C.Wood PF UNLV
20. Toronto G. Hernangomez C Spain
21. Dallas K.Oubre SF Kansas
22. Chicago C.Osman PG Turkey
23. Portland R.Holmes PF BGSU
24. Cleveland A.Williams SF UCSB
25. Memphis M.Frazier SG UF
26. San Antonio S.Tuttle PF UNI
27. LA Lakers T.Lyles PF UK
28. Boston D.Johnson C UK
29. Brooklyn J.Anderson SF UVA
30. Golden St. R.Upshaw C Wash

179 is here. This is 180.
1. Hopefully you took my investment advice. There has never been, listen to me here, in NBA history, a team as good as the Warriors has never lost an NBA Finals to a team like the Cavaliers. Never, never ever ever. This wasn't about Kyrie Irving or Kevin Love - this is 70 years of history. This series was never in doubt.
This is the greatest Warrior team of all time.
It's the 6th greatest NBA Champion of All Time.
2..But this is probably not as important as steroids.
3. Christian privilege in a Texas nutshell.
4.
5. You don't need an appendectomy.
6. Every Week Until He Stops - Vote For Bernie Sanders
7. The 100 greatest basketball players of all time.
8. Another lone gunman. But there really aren't any right wing terrorists.
9. The shooting seems less likely part of the War on Christmas and more likely something else. But what do I know?
Two quotes from this week. "You rape our women and are taking over our country and you have to go."
They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists.
The first was the gunman about blacks. The second was Trump about Mexican immigrants.
10. Every last one of them.
And one more...
That's all for this time. I'll be back next time. If there is a next time...
Your pal.
Jim
