I hope we take:

17) John Henson or Tyler Zeller (one of them might be available)

24) Quincy Miller. He was rated really high before the season so hes considered "overrated", but he can still play.

40) Jae Crowder

47) Not even going to guess because I'm sure it'll be a draft & stash. The first second rounder we might be able to get a faller like Crowder, Draymond Green

Any two of the the guys on this list for the two 1st rounders.

Fab Melo
Arnett Moultrie
Royce White
Terrence Ross
Meyers Leonard
Jae Crowder (yes, I believe he's a steal and should be picked frst before someone else in the 2nd does)

For the second round. Anyone from the list (make it two if we somehow get the Bucks' pick)

Evan Fournier (if he drops)
Will Barton
Kim English
Draymond Green
Darius Miller
Robert Sacre
Robbie Hummel

18. Royce White
21. Dion Waiters
45. Drew Gordon
48. Kris Joseph

For NBADraft.net
17. Tyler Zeller (this would be awesome)
24. Quincy Miller (not even a year removed from a knee surgery, was lacking the explosiveness that he had in HS this year)
40. Jae Crowder
47. Jeff WIthey (if he comes out which is unlikely) or Quincy Acy.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon

I take

17. Zeller (I love Ross, but can't pass up Zeller, who will be a taller Nick Collison in the NBA).
24. Quincy Miller - Too much upside to pass up at that point in the draft.  

41. (even though we only get this pick if its 45 or lower, I will play along) Jae Crowder.  He can defend multiple positions, and he has the will to have a good NBA career.  

47. Robbie Hummel - He probably won't be an NBA player, but might as well let him hang out with his Purdue buddies over the summer, and if he can come back further from the knee injury, I think he could be a valuable character/end of the bench guy, like Brian Cardinal or Scal.

18. Terrence Ross - I am a sucker for guys who have a high, quick release, are athletes, and good defensive players.  He is a quality rotation player at worst, and could develop into a star.

21. Arnette Moultrie - I haven't been wowed by him, but the measurables are there, and at that point in the draft, he is worth a roll of the dice.

45. Random Euro to stash overseas

48. Tu Holloway - I kind of like him.  He is a winner.

Great job on the nbadraft.net picks. You did less well with your draft express picks. (By well I mean how closely they mirror mine).
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz

Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

Ballparking our picks as C's 1st 16-18, Clip's 1st 21-25, Bucks second 45, C's second 46-48  here's who I'd consider if available:  (try not to overlap positions in the first round)

first pick:
Tyler Zeller, Terrence Ross, Jeremy Lamb.

second pick
Arnett Moultrie, Austin Rivers,  Meyers Leonard, Dion Waiters
(not a fan of Rivers or Leonard with the higher pick but I consider them less of a risk at this pick)

third pick
Darius Miller, Fab Melo, CJ Mccollum

fourth pick
see third pick leftovers and Hollis Thompson, Darius Miller.

What I'd prefer to avoid is undersized PFs and Cs.  we've had enough of those already.  they may play with heart but it's been too easy for opposing teams to go over them for buckets and rebounds.

I would take Terence Jones.  He has put up good numbers on a great team and I think he can play SF at 17.  I would take a hard look at Royce White as well with our second pick if he is there.

I would stay away from Zeller or Melo.  Both look like stiffs to me.  Melo is raw and Zeller is weak and easily pushed around.  Both have athletic ceilings that are pretty low for elite centers and both play soft and will not translate well to the next level.  I like Zeller better than Melo though.   I think Melo is the second coming of Thabeet and a bust in the making.  I think Sullinger too will struggle with NBA athletes.

Package both of our seconds for Darius Miller who I think can play either SG or PG.  He is a glue guy too.  I like Renardo Sidney  in the second round.  He has character issues but could be an inside workhouse for us.

I agree that in the first round (with Sullinger being the exception, if he even is truly undersized ) undersized bigs should be avoided. However in the second round they can be productive steals. Where an undersized big isn't an ideal starter they make for excellent bench players.
