Who's Mock Is More Accurate - NBAdraft.net or DraftExpress?

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Some people like one, some the other. I look at both, but don't have a clue who's better. So I thought I would do the work and capture their lists the day after the lottery drawing. Both sites say their lists were updated on 5/16 but as far as I can tell, it looks like all they did is change the teams, not move players around to match team needs. But since I don't have their previous lists, I could be wrong about that.

The idea is to have a list that we can look at after the draft. Then we'll know which site is better.

First column is the ranking on NBAdraft.net. Second column is the ranking on DraftExpress.

ND = not drafted (or not staying in the draft) in that site's list.

Bold = players who are 1st round on one list, 2nd round or not drafted on the other.

[I started the list with NBAdraft.net simply because it looked easier to transcribe (which turned out to be wrong), not because I think it's better.]

Needless to say, point out mistakes if you see any. It was tedious work and I wasn't always paying close attention.

Also, if you have another site you like, feel free to copy my list and add in your site. More is better.

 

[pln2013]

Haven't looked back historically to see which is more accurate, but DraftExpress has much better analysis and is generally more connected.

 

[illini-heel]

Of course Tony Bradley's position is worrisome (for him) in either one.

 

[trestyles]

Nbadraft had Joel James going 6 at one point. That tells you all you need to know. I don't like any mock drafts but draft express is the best.

 

[Spacegrass]

Semi Ojeleye is gonna be the steal of this draft.

 

[trestyles]

Semi Ojeleye is gonna be the steal of this draft.

And he couldn't get off the bench at dook smh. I also think osu Evans going to be a good one as well.

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Semi Ojeleye is gonna be the steal of this draft.

I remember him being in the 1st round on one of the mocks not that long ago.

 

[Spacegrass]

I remember him being in the 1st round on one of the mocks not that long ago.

He is better offensively than Draymond Green was at the same point. Not quite the passer and rebounder Draymond Green was at the same point but he has the defensive versatility to guard the 2 , 3 , and 4. Maybe even more like a Ron Artest type.

Lol, I had to reread the above post twice because I thought you were talking about TB!

All these players getting drafted every year yet there's only 2-3 teams that can win the NBA championship.
