Nice tool to play with, predicting how the NBA lottery will turn out. I ran it 10 times and came away feeling good about our chances of landing in the top 4 spots. Below are my results after runing it 10 times. Pick 4. Winslow Towns was first in all 10 trials. OK4 was second most of the time, except for pick 3 and pick 2 where they passed on OK4 and took Mudiay. The point is not who they selected. But the fact that I got no less than pick 4.....Which is good because this draft is solid with the first 5 picks. Usually Russell was selected 5th!

This is the tools ranking for what the knicks are looking for. Which is why Mudiay's name comes up so much. Towns Thats very different from what people were saying around here. But if you think about it, it makes since. Mudiay has that Kobe Bryant or MJ potential. Winslow is that Scotty Pipen type. Towns is just a potential beast waiting to blossom.....Kind of a mix between Gasol and Shaq. Born in Brooklyn, Raised in Queens, Lives in Maryland.

He's a natural point guard. He's going to be an NBA caliber talent." "Pretty explosive north to south, like John Wall. John had to tighten it up. This kid's the same way. So he's got to learn to play a little east to west." "One veteran birddog has Russell as his No. 1 pick in the entire Draft, ahead of two big men who are the top two selections in most mocks and are considered the top names by most teams: Duke's Jahlil Okafor and Kentucky's Karl-Anthony Towns. His reasoning is thus: the NBA game has become a game where teams hunt 3-pointers, layups and free throws on offense. Russell, who shot 41 percent on 3-pointers and got to the line 4.5 times a game for the Buckeyes, can do them all." "Bigs can't do all of those things," the scout said. "The only people who can do all three are perimeter players, and usually the guys with the ball in their hands. He can shoot the ball. He will get fouled. And he can make a play for others to make other people better. If you're talking about putting together a team for the core future of your team, you have to give as much thought to this guy, and (Mudiay), as you do the two big guys." – Western Conference scout on Emmanuel Mudiay Born in Brooklyn, Raised in Queens, Lives in Maryland.
