Any NBA draft prop bets worth taking?

[easyliving]

Noel looks like a lock to go first @-120. Any other props worth taking?

Adrian Wojnarowski @ WojYahooNBA 15m
The Cavaliers are choosing between Nerlens Noel and Alex Len at No. 1. If they pick Len, Noel could drop to Suns at No. 5. ·

Woj accurately leaked that the Cavs were going to take Dion Waiters during the day of the draft last year, so he may have very good, if not great, intel.

[NYSportsGuy210]

The African from Indiana University (Victor something or antoher) will go in the top 3 picks.

[Ceebizcut]

Best value is No D-League/Non-NCAA in top 12. Dennis Schroeder is the only one who could go in the lottery, and the teams 1-12 that would need a player like Schroeder are going to have the Try Burke's/CJ McCullum/Michael Carter-Williams of the world available or be selecting too high (In the case of Orlando) to bite on a mid first round.

@sheridanhoops: Barring a trade, #Cavs will take Alex Len with No. 1 pick. #Magic expected to trade No. 2 pick. Mock Draft 8.0: t.co/MILc7Px4wr
This is the fifth straight Mock Draft that I have Alex Len going to Cleveland. After talking to numerous sources, I say with 100 percent confidence that the Cavs will draft Len if they do not trade the pick.

As square as ESPN is, they have more overall information about this stuff than any other source. I have looked at various Mock Drafts, sports illustrated, USA Today, CBS Sports, NBATv and the ones where ESPN has a different opinion is probably where you can find the most value. Like I said I KNOW ESPN is usually pretty damn square for looking at normal bets, but for mock drafts they are almost always more accurate than other sources.

One interesting shift today in ESPNs Mock draft was Trey Burke slipping to number 10 (3rd overall PG) with McCollum and Carter-Williams going before him. So I really like Trey Burke over 7.5 for the plus value. Who knows though one team might really like him.

The only bet I went against ESPN is McLemore. I really think this kid could go 1, 2 or 3. It would be a steal for anyone who gets him after that. I dont care if his agent sucked and he didnt have the best workouts. He has proven that he can freakin ball and has some serious athleticism. I think its at even better odds now for him against Porter Jr at +180

What about that Sergie guy from russia?

had already taken Noel for #1 should I hedge out @ +160 for field?

[CMNoney]

Zeller under 10 1/2.

Heard Wolves will take him at 9 if he is there and will hash out a trade for Dipo/Mclemore.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Wait it out a bit and see what we can find out via twitter.

Sheridan is semi reliable but not infallible. He had the Cav's taking Harrison Barnes last year in error.

The four players Grant scouted the most: Noel, Len, Mclemore, and Bennett.

If they can't make a trade, which is looking more likely by the hour then I think they go with Noel. Mike Brown is a defensive coach and Noel is NBA ready on the defensive end which should excite MB.

[Otters27]

How about CJ Mcollum under 9.5 rounds?

[Grits n' Gravy]

Zeller will suck in nba -1000000. No kid in this draft is really special but OKC should take Shabazz if he falls to them.

I will take that bet. Indiana misused him and he still put up great numbers. He can stroke it from outside but wasn't allowed to shoot threes at Indiana. They wanted him in the paint at all times.

[detroitlionsfan]

peyton siva to be drafted -260

might as well be will the sun rise tomorrow -260

[Tmuston Beltics]

Just dropped to like -250

[soccerzyko]

oladipo will go 2nd.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Sun's are trying to get Cav's first pick. #5 and #30 being offered for #1. They want Noel very badly...

[Mac4Lyfe]

Sirius nba radio saying Cavs and Jazz working on a deal.

Cavs send #1 and #19 to Jazz for #14,Kanter and Burk.

[thetrinity]

i think cavs are fools if they dont trade the pick, no good number 1 players and there are way more desperate teams in this draft.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Should go 8...

How about CJ Mcollum under 9.5 rounds?

[Mac4Lyfe]

Trade the pick for who? Noel would be a great rim protector for the Cavs.

But the Cav's really need a SF too, so who knows. Maybe Porter but he doesn't have the metrics that Grant likes.

Noel weighs a buck 50

[Mac4Lyfe]

He's already gained 20-25 lbs in the last month...

Did you forget when Shaq was skinny???

Noel weighs a buck 50

[thetrinity]

noel is not a number 1 pick. maybe this year cuz the field is weak, but hes not shaq, akeem, david robinson, even anthony davis.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Ben McLemore is wearing a blue & Wine (Crimson) bowtie - only bowtie of all 13 players in green-room. Hmmm

[thetrinity]

stern gets booed for the last time lmao.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Grant is fukking stupid. Anthony Bennett? WTF???

[easyliving]

unreal should've hedged out. Noel might not be drafted in the top 5

[Mac4Lyfe]

He may drop like a rock now.

Oladipo number 2. McLemore probably next.

As a Cav fan, I'm speechless.

[Tmuston Beltics]

Props Basketball 152 Nerlens Noel not drafted #1 overall +105* <small>vs</small> Nerlens Noel drafted #1 overall

Thought my bet was buried when I saw the line go to like +200. PHEW!

[k13]

He was 300 lbs "skinny".

[crustyme]

if jordan passes on the best player in the draft in ben mclemore, he's dumb.

[Bostoncj]

Tmuston... That was a ballsy bet good for u!!

[easyliving]
