2012 NBA Mock Draft: Predicting Each Lottery Pick’s NBA Destinyâ€
There are four things you have to keep in mind when viewing this mock draft.
First, the draft order was the result of the NBA Lottery Mock Draft machine on ESPN with records on 4/3/2012. The NBA Lottery never pans out according to the odds, so this is the most realistic way to conduct a mock draft at this point.
Second, the picks are what I would do if I were the GM for each of these teams. It is absolutely not a prediction of what each current NBA GM will do. Many of them are idiots, and that is why I am using my years of successful analysis to predict the NBA destiny of each of the lottery picks in this year's draft based on the current and/or former player(s) they are most similar to if they reach their full potential.
