NBA Mock draft
Well the draft is on thursday and I haven't really read a lot of mock draft columns but here is how i think it'll turn out. Also feel free to post your versions of a mock draft
![]() 1.Orlando- Emeka Okafor -pf - Most proven player in draft. 2.Charlotte- Josh Howard- pf/sf- Dubbed as the next KG. 3.Chicago- Luol Deng- Pretty versatile outside/inside game. 4.Clippers!- Devin Harris- They need a pg, and Livingston isn't ready. 5.Washington- Andre Iguodala- I hear he's like a Pipen. 6.Atlanta- Shaun Livingston- The Hawks suck anyways so he'll have plenty of time to devolop. 7.Phoenix- Andris Biedrins- They need a center I guess. 8.Toronto- Ben Gordon- rookie of the year! 9.Philadelphia- Josh Childress- scorer to help AI. 10.Cleveland- Josh Smith- A highschool player to help Lebron win a championship next yr! 11.Golden State- What do they need aNYways? I'll say Jameer Nelson. 12.Seattle!!!- Stupid Sonics always draft a big man and he ends up sucking, probably no different, Pavel Podkolzine. 13.Portland- Kirk Snyder out of Nevada. I know I'll probably be way off on these but who cares. Its always fun to speculate trades n' stuff. thoughts? ![]() |

I think Orlando would be insane to not take Okafor

Well he has a history with his back . So if anything Orlando doesn't want another Grant Hill they might be scared off and take their chances with Howard. I wouldn't second guess them if they did.

Okafor will make an impact right away, Howard you have no idea if he ever will. That alone makes me like Okafor, but I also think he could play really well with Mobley and Francis. In my opinion, if you are going to get two established stars, you might as well go for a guy who is likely to contribute early.
I think that Howard will be a lot better off if he goes to Charlotte also. They are a young team, no pressure to win, plenty of time and playing time to develop in, and from what I hear Bickerstaff is a pretty good coach. |
