      this one looks more realistic http://www.nbadraft.net/2011mock_draft
      Maybe I haven't seen enough of him, but Derrick Williams looks like a solid player, but that's about it. Certainly not on the level of an Irving.

          I am finding nbadraft.net to be one of the less realistic sites out there. Maybe I'm wrong...

          • The Kings would take Irving over Jones. They've been looking for a true PG to play with Evans.

              Yeah, I take draftexpress a little more seriously than nbadraft.net. At the #4 spot, they have Jared Sullinger. I wouldn't be disappointed with that.

                NBADraft.net seems to not really care about accuracy until a couple of months before the draft. They had been more accurate in their final mock drafts in their predictions than DraftExpress in previous years, although I don't know about last year.

                  Once the lottery occurs, everything starts to take shape and team needs are taken into consideration.

                    Very true. One thing I have noticed is all the 'experts' (haha) have said the only guy with franchise material is Irving.

                    • Kyrie Irving

                      need a PG who can get his own shot and break down a defense.

                      • Raptors with their Miami pick (27th?) should pick Kenneth Faried of Morehead State. He's the top rebounder in the NCAA and has been compared favourably with Dennis Rodman (without the wacko personality). I think rebounding is the Raptor's biggest need after basketball IQ. He's short (6'8") - that's why he may go late in the draft, but he gets the job done.

                          I dont watch much NCAA and don't really know much about this guy, but look at Dejuan Blair. Undersized hard workers should not be overlooked with later picks.

                            Blair was a top ten player until it came out he had no anterior cruciate ligaments in his knees. But while I'd tend to agree that undersized hard workers shouldn't be overlooked, the Raptors already have Dorsey and Evans, who fit that description. I'd rather keep one of them, quite frankly. How much time is there behind Johnson and Davis, anyway?

                              That would be awesome.

                              • I watched the UNC game yesterday to watch Barnes. He has fallen to 8-12 range on many mock drafts but certainly played well yesterday. He has the body of an NBA player and certainly has the 'intangibles' like hustle. I'd like to see him drive more.
