Chad Ford's Mock Draft Results

I just played the mock draft about 300 times, but it didn't occur to me to write down the results, so I wrote down the last 100 results.
Here are the results. The Sonics draft Grego Oden 17% of the time (doesn't mean number 1 pick, if Milwaukee or Charlotte get number 1 pick, they pick Durant first and if we have number 2, we get Oden).
Durant is drafted 7% of the time (always number 2).
Noah is drafted 15% of the time (usually number 3, number 5 once).
Yi Jian Lian is drafted 53% of the time (usually from picks 5 to 8).
Horford is drafted 6% of the time (usually picks 6-8 if Jianlian and Noah are gone).
Lastly, Julian Wright is drafted 2% of the time.
This is good news because if we really do have a 24% chance of getting Oden or Durant, I'd be psyched. This would not only make this franchise legitimate, but also prevent us from moving probably. Skip Bayliss said earlier that he doesn't think Oden will be a hall of famer. This is just as dumb as people debating Durant and Oden and who's better. Would you rather have a mix between Dirk, T-Mac, and KG or a mix between Ewing, David Robinson, and Bill Russell? The answer is that it doesn't matter, you can't go wrong.

The mock draft is a little ridiculous. I don't think we'd ever take YJL regardless of our pick. We need another unproven, young center like a hole in the head.

Hey AndyMetz,

Shaq is a proven old center, lets go for him!
