The Pick N Popcast's 2014 NBA Mock Draft

Just in time.  Here's all 30 picks:

Note: Mitchell's comments in blue.
            Chris' comments in red.

1. Cleveland Cavaliers Joel Embiid
   Sigh. Should be Wiggins, now. Jabari/Kyrie/Dion can’t play together.
   Such a shame.
2. Milwaukee Bucks   Jabari Parker    

    Turned out to be the perfect spot at # 2.  Jabari seems to want to go there.  A reason to watch the Bucks next year.
    Still love it and so does Jabari. Bucks need to build a franchise, starts with Jabari.

3. Philadelphia 76ers Andrew Wiggins
   Sorry 76ers fans but no chance now. Exum is most interesting. Embiid most likely.
   Sixers just couldn't get a deal done.  I liked Wiggins in Philly (the city) too.
4. Orlando MagicDante Exum

The more I hear about him, the more excited I am to see him play.  Exum-Oladipo backcourt will be so intriguing.

Orlando’s in the worst spot in this draft now. Was so happy to build this roster too. Smart?

5. Utah JazzAaron Gordon
   Great fit but Utah needs impact player as bad as Bucks. I’d move Favors for one.
   At this point, totally unsure what Utah does. Should have made a move for Jabari I think.
   
   
6. Boston Celtics Julius Randle

    Definitely an upgrade over Sullinger.  He’s become underrated at this point, Embiid is definitely an option though.
    I’m still in favor of this. Get buckets. Embiid’s floor (I hope!).

7. Los Angeles LakersNoah Vonleh
   Bad fit with Lakers, wish they pulled off my Afflalo trade. Loved Adreian Payne with them at #12 to play with Kobe.
   In retrospect, Kobe might murder Vonleh's dreams.  
8. Sacramento KingsMarcus Smart

    I still say the Kings trade out, but I do think Sacramento fans would LOVE Smart by the end of the year.
    Make this pick before I talk myself into Elfrid Payton. His range starts here.

9. Charlotte Hornets (from Detroit)Nik Stauskas
   Jealous of Hornets fans right now. No joke.
   Nik Stauskas for Rookie of the Year!!
10. Philadelphia (from New Orleans)Dario Saric

    He reminds me of Kevin Durant without the shooting ability.  Incredibly rare to be that tall and long with that type of handle.  Sixers continue to collect assets.
    Could still work but tough to end up with Embiid & Saric. Long-term pick regardless.

11. Denver NuggetsGary Harris
    Probably not after Afflalo trade but nailed team need at 2 guard. Nurkic? 
    Another big wild card in the draft.  I could see them stashing, Nurkic makes sense.
12. Orlando Magic (from New York via Denver)Adreian Payne(going to trade Afflalo & #12 to LAL for #7)

    Magic get their prospect and Lakers get two guys who’ll have an impact.  Best case scenario for Lakers.  Sorry Lakers fans.... haha.    I don’t want to talk about it...

13. Minnesota Timberwolves Doug McDermott
    This is the earliest I can see him going. Rotation player right away.
    I wonder if McDermott turns out to be really good.  I can't picture it, but I'll root for it.
14. Phoenix Suns James Young

Can run the floor, be long, and (hopefully) knock down outside shots for the Suns.  Great fit.
            Tough pick for me. Could be Nurkic and Hood at #18 instead.

15. Atlanta HawksZach LaVine
    Insane athleticism but 10 points over last 5 games is tough. Upside pick.
    Totally upside.  Kind of un-Hawks-ish.  I think that's why I like it.
16. Chicago Bulls (from Charlotte)Elfrid Payton

Could be a steal.  It doesn’t seem like he’ll last this long, but PGs are like RBs in NFL, only so many teams need one, the market is almost saturated.
    So glad I got to talk about Elfrid.

17. Boston Celtics (from Brooklyn)Jusuf Nurkic
    I’m having Vitor Faverani flashbacks. Hoping for some shooting here.
    Come on.  He's better than that, no?  Ok, you're right.  We have no idea.
18. Phoenix (from Washington)Clint Capela

    It seems like a stash guy, but Capela may come over.  Either way it makes sense though.  A defensive big would be valuable for the Suns.  
    Feel pretty comfortable with this pick.

19. Chicago BullsT J Warren
    Get buckets, young fella. The Bulls need it.
     Yes sir!
20. Toronto RaptorsTyler Ennis

    Hometown kid.  It looked like it made sense all along, but Ennis may be slipping and I can’t say I’m surprised.  Not sure about him.
    Lazy pick but he can run an offense. Definitely not a workout guy.

21. Oklahoma City (from Dallas via Houston & Lakers)Rodney Hood
    Sploosh. 
    OKC will get a player at 21.
22. Memphis GrizzliesP.J. Hairston

    This pick now belongs to Toronto and the rumor is Capela.  Would definitely fill a need for Toronto.  Had Memphis picked, this makes perfect sense.
    Wow, Memphis paid to unload Prince. I have Capela gone so could be Stokes or Anderson instead.

23. Utah Jazz (from Golden State)Kyle Anderson
    Kyle to Gordon alley-oops. More sploosh.
    Yes sir again!
24. Charlotte Hornets (from Portland)Jarnell Stokes

    As Mitchell mentioned, Chad Ford reported McGary here.  Same role, but I like McGary better.  I think he’s a bigger, stronger (therefore actually intimidating) version of Hansbrough.
    Hornets need a big but McGary promise is underreported. Bench bigs either way. Not a fan of back injuries.

25. Houston RocketsShabazz Napier   
    Not a Napier fan (as I wasn’t a Kemba fan either), Houston needs athletes who defend. Maybe McDaniels?
    McDaniels would be a great fit.  Could totally hide Harden with his perimeter D.
26. Miami HeatSpencer Dinwiddie
    Been waiting on this and didn’t disappoint. Napier is too Norris Cole-ian. Take a risk.
    Better scenario is Miami trading down and grabbing him at 35-40.
27. Phoenix Suns (from Indiana)K.J. McDaniels
    Love this pick. Needs polishing but pure ath-a-lete in fast-break offense.
    Combine McDaniels and Gerald Green and you have the ultimate wing.
28. Los Angeles ClippersPatric Young

    Clippers need depth up front.  About a year ago Young was thought of as a lottery pick.  One of the strongest players in the draft.  Enforcer for Blake.
    Toughest pick in the draft, for me. Solid player who should go first round.

29. Oklahoma City ThunderWalter Tavares

    BIG body.  Could be a stash guy.  I could see the Thunder looking to replace some Perkins minutes once he’s amnestied (assuming he is).
    I may or may not have caught feelings for Walter and a certain Mr. Adams. Swoon.

30. San Antonio SpursJordan Adams

    Mitchell loves this matchup as much as I love Stauskas to Charlotte.  Adams is probably a steal at this point.  With the depth of this draft though, Spurs are bound to scoop up talent that falls.

    We saw how Spurs developed Kawhi and his defensive instincts, would love to take chance on Jordan’s offensive instincts.
