NBA Draft:
Mock Draft Competition
Which site had the best Mock Draft? I took a look at how CHN's
Mock Draft fare against the three other site's whose NBA Draft
information I respect: Chad Ford's mock on ESPN.com, NBADraft.net, and
DraftExpress.com.
In general, this year's Draft was much more predictable than last year's
Draft. With so many trades, comparing the mock's is a bit less
effective than usual. This is because a draft might have projected a
player to go in position X to team Y, only to find the player get drafted in
a different position but still end up with the same team. Regardless,
for the first time ever Chad Ford's mock draft actually performed well.
Chad picked an impressive 13 guys dead on, though 4 of his first rounders
went in round two (2nd worst).
Overall, I give Chad Ford's Mock Draft the edge this year, followed by my
own mock draft in a virtual tie with NBADraft.net, and DraftExpress.com a
distant 4th.
