Alright guys, it's time to make this official list of who we love in the 2014 NBA Draft.

So how does this work?


- You pick who you "Love" as a player, irregardless of position and where they're projected to be picked.

- It's basically the guy you're proud to be a "homer" of.

- If your guy is picked really high in the draft, but crapped out, ala "Jimmer" or a "Laetner" or an "Alexander" then you would be "Shamed" forever and ever more. (I'm look at you, Biyombo and 'Bazz homers, you know who you are).

- If your guys performed more or less at the same level as where he is picked, then it's "Meh".

- However, if your guy is picked low, like say Thompson or Lillard, but outperformed that particular pick, then you are "Glorified" forever and ever more here on JazzFanz and become a part of JazzFanz's prestigious folklore. (Honz is obviously in this category re Hayward)


====================================================================


So just indicate below what your pick is (1 player per poster only please) and I will update the following list. Doesn't matter if your player is taken, I'll group you guys together, no problem whatsoeva.

Let's Go!!!

I think we should do 2. Someone in the top 10 and someone outside of that. It's too easy to just pick a top player.
 
Alright solid & safe pick - but you do realise if he doesn't perform like the top 2 pick, he would have under-achieved right?

Sure, that's fine. I'm saying he is going to be the best player from this class. He'll definitely out perform what a lot people around here think of him.

It doesn't matter - it's who out-performed their draft position.


MCW, for example, was a GREAT PICK last year, even though he was picked 9th, he was the clear winner.

Otto Porter, for example, was a clear top 3 pick last year, but didn't do so well...




If you pick K.J.McDaniels and he turns out like a lottery pick, then you're also a winner.
