    make your picks 1-25.

    you get points for making correct picks.

    scoring will be as follows:

    picks 1-5: 1 point each
    picks 6-14: 2 points each
    picks 15-24: 3 points each
    rockets #25: 8 points

    obviously it doesn't make sense to post your mock after the draft has started. on friday i will do my best to count it all up and post the final standings, but feel free to count your own score and post it... remember the honor system people!

    I think you should start with your own mock draft smoothie. As for me,I'm chickening out. :D

    Really felt like the Rockets would take Batum, but his health issues might draw a lot of teams away, enough to put him in the late 20's or the high second round. But Morey could take a risk and find a great bargain like Landry last year.

    Is this only first round? It would be much less work than having to guess what goes on in the 2nd.

    he does it when we are in the lotto.

    still, it would be fun to do it every year, up to our draft pick (provided we have a first round pick)

    I like your draft but you've got McGee listed twice at 21 and 26.

    we go by what # a player is drafted. essentially, the game is to say beasley will go #2, now if miami trades the pick so someone else, he still was drafted #2. so that would be a correct guess.
