    that's usually the way to keep from being wrong!

    you can add the last few picks just for bragging rights, but only the top 25 will be scored.

    There is mine. I didn't look at any of the drafts either, but that may have been a mistake because I don't know who moved up or down because of workouts.

    (UGH! this stinks.. I got all the way to the end and there was no one left for the Rockets!! - The Jazz ended up picking who I wanted ARGH! So I ended up with the displaced Hoosier/Kentucky boy!)

    You "ended up" with Courtney Lee? The Rockets should be so lucky.

    LOL Well I didn't want to end up with Courtney Lee. Though I would like to have him on the Rockets I was hoping for someone taller in the SG/SF position.

    I found myself looking to add taller SG's to some team's rosters too (Washington, Orlando, Cleveland to name a few), but there just aren't many to go around in the 1st round this year. Seems like 4 out of every 5 players are PF/C's.

    I just look for reasons to hate the Jazz.. there are so many. Like the fact that they have two players on the freaking Olympic team. How is that fair!!??

    Me too CCR, which is why I ended up drafting people in places merely because they were the best athlete left (imho).

    I think it's going to be an interesting draft mainly because there is a lot of possible teams looking to trade picks.

    He's George Costanza!!! Personally, I would have taken Michael Richards at 25. He's taller and (apparently) has a mean streak.

    Question: What happens if a team trades its pick? Do our points only count then if the team that ends up picking there still selects our guy? I'm guessing yes, since this needs to be as simple as possible.

    1. Derrick Rose
    2. Michael Beasley (traded to Seattle)
    3. Brook Lopez
    4. OJ Mayo (traded to Miami)
    5. Kevin Love
    6. Joe Alexander
    7. Jerryd Bayless
    8. Russell Westbrook
    9. Danilo Gallinari
    10. Marreese Speights
    11. DJ Augustin
    12. Alexis Ajinca
    13. Brandon Rush
    14. Eric Gordon
    15. DeAndre Jordan
    16. Darrell Arthur
    17. Nicholas Batum
    18. Anthony Randolph
    19. Kosta Koufos
    20. Donte Green
    21. JJ Hickson
    22. Courtney Lee
    23. Roy Hibbert

    I am pretty sure it's the number of the player matched to the pick. Doesn't matter the team.

    you are choosing what number each player will get drafted, not what team drafts each player.

    Alexander is what happens when you watch Seinfeld late at night while making your mock draft...
