2016 NBA Draft Prediction Contest

[mitchzz]

Thought it would be fun to have a little prediction contest like we do every year, coz why not. We'll just limit it to the top 10 as it is pretty late notice?

Scoring system is as follows:

- Correct guess = 10 pts
- Off by one spot = 3 points
- Bonus: Predict where Thon Maker is drafted = 10 pts

1. 76ers - Ben Simmons
2. Lakers - Brandon Ingram
3. Celtics - Kriss Dunn
4. Suns - Dragan Bender
5. Timberwolves - Buddy Hield
6. Pelicans - Jamal Murray
7. Nuggets - Marquis Chriss
8. Kings - Jaylen Brown
9. Raptors - Scal Labissiere
10. Bucks - Jacob Poeltl
Thon: Philly @ 26

Last edits can be made an hour before draft time.

Is this supposedly a strong draft?

 

[J Shuttlesworth]

22. Tall white guy.

Is this supposedly a strong draft?

No.

Well not really.

Clear top 2. Next level of 6 or so then a lot of talent at the next tier

Thon - BOS @#23

Such an open top 10 after the first 2. And who knows if Boston will end up keeping their pick. Impossible to predict.

 

[stewie griffen]

1. 76ers - Simmons
2. Lakers - Ingram
3. Celtics - Dunn
4. Suns - Chriss
5. Timberwolves - Buddy
6. Pelicans - Murray
7. Nuggets - Bender
8. Kings - Brown
9. Raptors - Poeltl
10. Bucks - Davis

Maker 24

I really have no idea what Boston do and it changes everything, they take anyone but Dunn and my picks are dead lol

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Wonder if the Nuggets will move up to 5

Wolves supposedly want Faried. Not sure if Faried + 7 for 5 would be enough for them

 

[2006_Eagles]

Pelicans aren't taking Brown. It's Dunn, Murray or Hield.
