With the first pick in the 2013 NBA Draft the Cleveland Cavaliers select:



Ben Mclemore SG Kansas

With the injury concerns to Nerlens Noel the Cavaliers have opted for a scorer to play alongside their All-Star PG Kyrie Irving. They believe that their number 4 pick last year Dion Waiters will be able to provide a scoring punch off the bench as the Sixth man.


also i have no clue how to make this picture bigger.

Sounds good.

With the 2nd overall pick in the 2013 draft...the Orlando Magic select..... PG Trey Burke.

This pick is only right since Mclemore was selected. This gives us a good starting 5 and depth for the future. Burke reminds us of Jameer Nelson, but younger. With this pick we have our future set and we just need to depend on the staff to develop these guys and for the fans to be patient.

With the 3rd pick the wizards select Anthony Bennett power forward. The wizards considered otto porter but decide to give john wall what he wants and will form an offensively unstopable pick and pop and pick and roll combo with Bennett's great jump shot or his speed, power.and finishing ability at the rim. Wizards will address the small forward position in next years loaded class

With the 4th Pick in the NBA draft:

The Charlotte Bobcats Select:

Alex Len
Center Maryland

Reasoning:
Charlotte lacks a go to scorer and general skill on the team. Does Len have a higher ceiling than Nerleans Noel ? No, but with Bismack Biyombo still a major part of this teams plans they can't afford overlap of skills, and more importantly another liability on the offensive end. With McLemore off the boards Len is the selection. (Will add more later). Len has a good midrange shot, post game, and isn't a bad rebounder and can workout of the post like not many other big men in the league these days. Len also adds a lot of size to the team.

If this were the real draft, I'd be so happy for the Pelicans.

[HornetGuru]

Perfect pick for the bobcats great job

[HornetGuru]

I have a feeling it just might

[BLT23]

I have a feeling it just might

would LOVE if it was.... so with just Phoenix ahead of us and Oladipo, Noel and Porter available? that would be perfect. I think Suns take Oladipo and I'd take Noel.

[AD23forMVP]

With the 5th pick, the Phoenix Suns are proud to select:



Nerlens Noel, C, Kentucky

In what could be considered a dream draft scenario for the Suns, three of their top prospects are still available in Nerlens Noel, Victor Oladipo, and Otto Porter. The Suns reportedly love Oladipo, but Noel slipping to 5 was definitely not thought of as a realistic possibility so they are very excited to scoop him up. Noel could miss the entire season with the ACL tear, but that is not a problem for the Suns who have Marcin Gortat, Channing Frye, Luis Scola, the Morris twins under contract for next season. Noel is raw on both sides of the court, but he offers to much potential as a defensive anchor for the Suns to pass on.

[HornetGuru]

great pick

[Eman5805]

Democratic process a-go-go!

[GESWhoseBack]

Might as well just pick Otto its a no brainier. Best player at biggest need

[HornetGuru]

^ this guy

id love to draft porter and try and land jeff teague in free agency

[AD23nEG10]

call me crazy but sure seems like some pro-otto porter biases guided this draft through 5 picks...

[Inner_GI]

Now that you mention it...

Was I supposed to take him and have MKG?

[Inner_GI]

Was I supposed to take him and have MKG?

Oh no. Bobcats have no need at all for him. I was surprised you took Len though.

[BallSoHard]

Oh no. Bobcats have no need at all for him. I was surprised you took Len though.

Went in with the thought to take Noel and ended up with Len. Just made sense. I'm not overly high on him but I think everyone in the too 8 are pretty close to the same..

[HornetGuru]

Oh no. Bobcats have no need at all for him. I was surprised you took Len though.

len was the best pick ive seen so far, oladipo next to mkg wouldnt be great i dont think and noel next to bismack would be redundant, len fits perfect for them.
