if you've paid attention to nbadraft.net mocks, you can bet this is how it's going to go down! MCW at 14, Gobert at 21, and Kabongo at 46!!!

If we draft MCW or the dude from Gonzaga, I'm going to throw something at Greg's fat head.

Difficult to understand the so-called "draft experts" bumping Cody Zeller halfup the lottery based solely on his athletic testing results.

Jonathan Givony ‏@DraftExpress 20h
You really needed a tape measure to tell you that Cody Zeller is athletic? Whatever happened to watching a game or two during the season?

Jonathan Givony ‏@DraftExpress 20h
I'm not saying Cody Zeller shouldn't be in the top-10, but to move someone up significantly because of some BS testing raises some eyebrows.

Jonathan Givony ‏@DraftExpress 20h
Practicing athletic testing drills repeatedly for weeks will improve results significantly. Does that mean anything in real life though? No.

Last year I was in a small gym packed w/NBA execs when the athletic testing results came out. Not a single person gave a damn about them...

That has us passing on Bazz for MCW. I hope not. Do like the Gobert and Kabongo picks if we can get them at 21 and 46.

Sooo since you don't want small market teams to succeed, we should draft MCW?

Lol at this mock

This.

 

[IBProfane]

On a related note, ESPN's draft lottery machine has us selecting Shabazz Muhammad at 14. If we don't trade up, and Schroeder is off the board, this is a dream scenario for a plan B.

Gobert and Kabongo at 21 & 46 would be amazing. If we took Shabazz at 14, that's an A+ draft night for us.

Ha. A++++++ most amazing draft ever

Anything less than this is going to be a failure in my eyes now. Come on KOC, work your magic.

CJ Miles 2.0

I'm personally seeing him closer to Luol Deng, but that's just me.

Also perhaps Mr. Chad Ford who was gushing about Zeller's athletic testing on twitter and also (I think) quoting a GM who claimed Zeller was #2 on his teams draft board.

Ford's kept Zeller right around 10-11, so I don't think so.

Yea, I noticed Ford hadn't really bumped Zeller up the board despite all the praise. Wondered why. Personally 10-11 sounds high to me for a stretch 4 that has yet to demonstrate that he can conistantly hit the stretch jump shot. Zeller is trying to rebrand himself as a stretch pf. Potential can be a dangerous word.

Could this happen now?

Schroeder - Kabongo
Hayward - Webster
Muhammad - Carroll - Dunleavy
Kanter - Landry - Evans
Favors - Gobert

Trade Burks for Schroeder. Gobert and Muhammad seem to fall...

This would be the youngest and most exciting team to watch. Keep your finger crossed.

Nah, Ford had Zeller at #9 since yesterday in his top 100.

NBAdraft.net had Zeller at #4 last night, he has now moved it back to #7 I believe.

Holy crap, we would be set for years to come. Although there are way too many moving pieces for that to happen.
