» Phil Partington - Mock Draft

In response to Who's getting picked where? posted by Fantapedia:
I thought I'd post an early (very early) mock draft. Stay tuned for MUCH more draft coverage including a more researched mock later in June.
For now, here's a look at the top 14 (you can also see an early mock in a previous article):
1. Portland takes Greg Oden
2. Seattle takes Kevin Durant
3. Atlanta takes Yi Jianlian (I still think this is too high for Mike Conley, though that pick would make sense. Jianlian's a 4, but could be moved to play some time at center)
4. Memphis takes Brandan Wright
5. Boston takes Mike Conley
6. Milwaukee takes Al Horford (this might be the perfect fit for Milwaukee and for Horford)
7. Minnesota takes Corey Brewer (I love his game, but he's SO skinny. 6-8 185lbs!)
8. Charlotte takes Julian Wright (could opt for Jeff Green instead)
9. Chicago takes Spencer Hawes (I think he'll raise his stock beyond Noah's)
10. Sacramento takes Jeff Green
11. Atlanta takes Acie Law (this might be early for him, but if they don't case Conley with the third pick or trade back or up for him, look for them to chase Law with this pick).
12. Philadelphia takes Joakim Noah (they don't need him with Dalembert and Hunter, but he probably won't slide past here)
13. New Orleans takes Al Thornton
14. LA Clippers take either Thaddeus Young or Tiago Splitter
