    http://espn.go.com/nba/lottery2012/mockdraft <- really cool website that lets you simulate the lottery

    It took me forever to get us the 2nd pick. I got 3rd pick once. See if anyone can get the #1 pick.


    Also, could you imagine Anthony Davis on the Cavs? Davis+Irving? The Cavs would be beasting for at least the next decade

    That would be a dream. Not sure I wouldn't rather have Robinson though...

    Austin Rivers is projected that low? Somebody pick him up! If he was available at 14 I would take him!

    What a stupid thread. I'm more impressed with Lamb being that low rather than Rivers.

    If we had the 2nd pick, would you really pick MKG? Robinson, Beal or Drummond would be better suited for our team imo, otherwise we'd have to play Parsons as SG.

    Trade Lowry to the Hornets for the 10th overall pick, Jason Smith and a Lottery protected pick in 2013 (top 5)

    Draft Perry Jones 10th overall

    Draft Jeremy Lamb 14th overall

    Draft Tony Wroten 16th overall


    ----

    We will then have the biggest and tallest team in the NBA

    PG- Goran Dragic( 6'3), Tony Wroten( 6'5)
    SG Kevin Martin (6'7), Jeremy Lamb( 6'6), Courtney Lee( 6'5)
    SF- Chandler Parsons (6'10), Perry Jones( 6'11), Marcus Morris( 6'8)
    PF- Luis Scola ( 6'9), Donatas Motiejunas( 7'0), Patrick Patterson( 6'9)
    C- Sam Dalembert ( 6'11), Jason Smith( 7'0), Greg Smith ( 6'10)


    We would be the tallest team in the league

    Doubt we'll get Lamb at 14, he's one of the players that will impress in the Combine, same with PJ III, see him getting picked at 8 or 9.

    Also doubt the Hornets will give us the top 5 protected pick along with the 10 when there are FAs like Dragic, Nelson, etc.

    I have a feeling that we will draft Terrence Jones with the 14th pick. 6'8 PF. :grin:

    On the off chance a miracle like that happens it's Stern saying sorry to Houston!! lol :grin:

    MKG would absolutely be the target for me at #2!
    Trade Lowry, Morris, #16, Dal future 1st to POR for #6 Andre Drummond
    Trade Scola, Dalembert, Patterson for Bosh
    Resign Dragic, Lee, Camby! Bring over Motiejunas
    Trade Martin for a backup PG on a 1yr deal

    Dragic, backup PG
    Lee, Budinger
    MKG, Parsons
    Bosh, Motiejunas
    Drummond, Camby

    POR can easily target a PG via free agency, why trade your valuable #6 pick for Lowry plus scrubs? Not happenin.

    The Bosh bit, why would MIA do this? Scola can't replace Bosh, is older, way worse on defense and not bangin in the paint like Bosh. Also undersized and can't block for ish. They can get a C via FA, so they wouldn't need Bear. Pat is garbage.
