I'm bored out of my mind and have nothing better to do, so here we go:

1- Cleveland Cavaliers select, PG Kyrie Irving, Duke:



2- Minnesota Timberwolves select, SF Harrison Barnes, North Carolina:



3- Washington Wizards select, PF Jared Sullinger, Ohio State:



4- Sacramento Kings select, SF/PF Derrick Williams, Arizona:



5- Toronto Raptors select, C Enes Kanter, Kentucky:



6- Utah Jazz select, SF Terrence Jones, Kentucky:



7- Detroit Pistons select, C Jonas Valanciunas, Lithuania:



8- Cleveland Cavaliers select, SF/PF Perry Jones, Baylor:



9- Milwaukee Bucks select, SG Alec Burks, Colorado:



10- Charlotte Bobcats select, PG Kemba Walker, UCONN:



11- Golden State Warriors select, SF Kawhi Leonard, San Diego State:


I'll finish the rest later.

It'd be real interesting if the Cavs got Kyrie and Perry. That'd be a beast combo

this is definitely a very solid class but I think it lacks a little size once you get past 1-10 picks.

Nice to see Kemba a top-10. I have a feeling Jimmer will get selected before him and Kemba could drop to like 13 or 14 but I think Kemba will be the better NBA player.

Curious to see who you got going to the Knicks. I saw one mock draft somewhere on the .net with them taking a SF which made 0 sense to me. I'd rather see them pick a guy whose projected low-1st, early 2nd if he's a Center, lol.

You guys don't have a 1st round pick this year.

the Whole Enchilada from La Mirada Derrick Williams impresses me

otherwise i've only heard of Irving, Kemba, Sullinger, and Barnes

I'm hoping the Wolves get Irving and Wizards get the whole enchilada from La Mirada....

If the wolves drafted Kyrie..that would just basically admit the organization screwed up with Rubio.

Rubio doesn't want to play in Minny, it's pretty obvious

Not to mention he's not even a good euro-league player, he'd be shit in the NBA

he was told to play a different game this season and work on his strength and other intangibles, hence the decline in production..

Doesn't change the fact that he can't shoot to save his life

Rondo is also an excellent defender and is leading the league in assists. Rubio isn't a good defender and he is never going to lead the league in assists. Rubio hasn't even performed all that well in his Euro career

Needless to say if we take Valanciunas, I'm on suicide watch.
Horrible compliment to Monroe.

He doesn't have a back to the basket game.
Next to Monroe, we need a rebound and defender, and also isn't afraid to bang in the post.

Anyone but him.

You sure your not thinking of Motiejunas, the other big from Lithuania? That's what it sounds like to me, or you just don't know much about Valanciunas.

Valanciunas has a very versatile game, he can face the basket and hit jumps out to 12 feet or he can play in the post. He is a also a pretty solid rebounder, grabbing more than 5 a game in less than 15 minutes of action.

In 2009 he averaged 19.6 points, 10.6 boards, and 2.6 blocks per game against Enes Kanter in the European Championships, then in the next summer he averaged 19.4 points, 13.4 rebounds, and 2.7 blocks the next summer, and one tourny MVP.

He'll have a learning curve, just like most NBA bigs (especially foreign) but the dude has a chance to be something special. Some mocks have him gone in the top 3.
