I just looked it up...apparently he does this whenever there's a camera on him. He talks fine when there's no camera around, but he does that twitch where he jerks to the right and stutters when the camera's on.

"New Orleans trades Emeka Okafor and Trevor Ariza to Washington for Rashard Lewis and the #46 pick"

I hope Charlotte chooses Robinson and the Wizards go Beal

Wizards are definitely going with Beal if he's there.

DIon Waiters has a promise from a team with a fairly high pick as well, because he shut down his personal workouts a couple of weeks ago. Didn't even attend the combine.

My totally useless Mock Lottery, Version 1.0

1) New Orleans.....Anthony Davis
2) Charlotte..........Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (good chance this pick gets traded)
3) Washington......Bradley Beal
4) Cleveland.........Harrison Barnes
5) Sacramento......Thomas Robinson
6) Portland...........Andre Drummond (either this pick or #11 get swapped for a vet, or they get packaged together to move up)
7) Golden State....Tyler Zeller
8) Toronto............Damian Lillard
9) Detroit.............Jeremy Lamb
10) New Orleans..Meyers Leonard
11) Portland........Dion Waiters
12) Milwaukee....John Henson
13) Phoenix........Austin Rivers
14) Houston.......Jared Sullinger

For the record, I'm not saying what I think they should do, I'm saying what I think they will do based on different things I've read.

I think the Top 6 guys are fairly obvious. Mix 'em up in whatever order you want to from 2-6, but those should be who gets picked. Unfortunately, the Dubs have the 7th pick, and I think picks 7-20 are lumped pretty close together.

I would cry in my cereal if that were to play out.

It would be cool if we had a collab WZ 1st round mock. Or at least the lottery... Maybe a big board

Just seen on the Warriors Facebook page, they asked what everyone thought of Zeller...............DO NOT WANT!!!

Who you guys get is gonna hinge on what happens at #2, IMO. If MKG goes there, I don't think you're going to get the SF that you want. Cleveland supposedly has their eyes on either Barnes or MKG, and it looks like Beal's going #3 to Washington. If T-Rob gets picked #2, you'll get either MKG or Barnes...whomever Cleveland doesn't take. But if it's MKG...it's either T-Rob, Drummond, or trade for you guys, IMO.

They're seriously asking fans what they think of prospects?!?!?!
