Put your GM skills to the test and see if you have what it takes to think like an NBA General Manager. You'll have until June 28th to post your predictions, and you will be allowed to alter and re-adjust your predictions up until June 25th. On the 25th, this thread will be locked so that no one can make any more changes to their predictions. Anyone who hasn't posted their initial predictions after the 25th can still enter the competition by PM'ing me their list.
Here's the order in which teams will be picking:
1) Milwaukee 2) Atlanta 3) Portland 4) New Orleans 5) Charlotte 6) Utah 7) Toronto 8) New York 9) Golden State 10) Los Angeles Lakers 11) Orlando 12) Los Angeles Clippers 13) Charlotte 14) Minnesota 15) New Jersey 16) Toronto 17) Indiana 18) Boston 19) Memphis 20) Denver 21) Phoenix 22) Denver 23) Sacramento 24) Houston 25) Seattle 26) Detroit 27) Utah 28) San Antonio 29) Miami 30) Knicks
If you don't want to list all 30 predictions, just list who you think we will pick.

I will be like Danny, and not show my hand until the end. ;D
Will have to give this some thought. Hard enough to just figure out who the Celtics will pick by itself. ;D

Welcome aboard, JParker. And thanks for signing up with CG.
Granger could slide to the 18th, but more than likely, he'll be taken before that. He has lottery potential, but his SF skills need work. He really needs to show to GM's during these workouts that he's a capable ball handler. If he bombs in these workouts, he could slide out of the lottery. If he nails these workouts, he's in the top 12.

JParker and TomWaddle (and the rest of you guys), are you guys going to post your mock draft? Its just a friendly competition to see who can get the most correct predictions.

I'd love to, but I'm not the best mock draft guy. I can give you the top 5.
1. Milwaukee- Marivin Williams SF/PF 2. Atlanta- Andrew Bogut C 3. Portland- Gerald Green SG 4. New Orleans- Chris Paul PG 5. Charlotte- Ray Felton PG
I'll see if I can try to whip up the entire draft.

Hey there, Esco33. Welcome to the site, and thanks for posting your mock draft. You have McCants going to Toronto with the 16th pick. You don't think they're already sour on SG's with some negative attitudes after their experience with Vince Carter?
