WRG 2012 Mock Draft - #19 Orlando Magic

New coach. New GM. Our star wants out. Our PG is a free agent. We don't have much young talent outside of Ryan Anderson. We just need good basketball players. It doesn't matter what position, we need young talent and a new start.

We are gonna go for a prospect who we think is a top 10 player based on potential in this draft.

With the 19th pick, the Orlando Magic select Moe Harkless, F, St. John's.

I'm in the NBA?!?!

We love Moe Harkless's potential. He averaged 15 ppg and 8 rpg as a freshman in the Big East. He has great size for a SF, but a little bit of a PF's game. That suits us well, as our only young talent, Ryan Anderson is a PF who likes to shoot from 3. He compliments him well, but we just need the best player available (it's not a myth!), and Harkless is at the top of our boards. If he develops like we hope, we just got a steal.

WRG Mock Draft 2010 - #29 Orlando Magic

We know we aren't going to draft a starter at this pick since it's the end of the first round and we are a title contender. Since both of our backup point guards are free agents (Anthony Johnson & Jason Williams), we could use someone there. We could also use a play-making wing, which we missed big time by Hedo Turkoglu's departure. We could even use a big man who can score with his back to the basket (hopefully that lights a fire under Dwights ass!).

There are a couple guys we like that fit into these categories. Darington Hobson is a very nice playmaker on the wing. He's a do-it-all forward and can give us the same type of player that Hedo was, although not on his level...yet. But we aren't taking Mr. Hobson. We are going for a big point guard to backup up little Jameer Nelson.

It's not a deep point guard draft, but one player is still there that we like, and can help us immediately: Mikhail Torrance. He adds size to the backcourt (6-5), a solid backup point guard and can contribute immediately since he stayed in college all four years.
We hope the Celtics draft #21.
