2011 NBA Mock Draft 3.0

I love that the NBA gets right down to business as far as the draft goes. The Dallas Mavericks were just crowned as world champions on Sunday, and we are already just one week away from draft night. All signs point towards Kyrie Irving making 216 his new area code and headed to Cleveland. After that, it’s anyone’s guess. Look forward to the complete 2-round version of my Mock NBA Draft early next week. For now, here is a look at how I see the first round shaking out.
