Mock Draft Competition

Instead of having lives or friends for the past several years, Justin and I (Chad) have created a series of Pro-Sports related competitions to take on with one another for monetary prizes. The first of these head to head competitions that we designed two years ago was the Mock Draft Competition.

The rules are pretty simple:

A Each of us creates our own mock draft, or listing of the players that we think will be chosen in the first round of the NBA draft listed in the order that we think their names will be called on Thursday.

B For each player that either participant has chosen in the correct numbered slot he is awarded three points. If he is one slot away he gets two points. Two slots away, he gets one point. If the predicted pick is any further from being accurate no points are awarded. (So if I have player X going 12th overall and he does I get three points. If he goes 11th or 13th I get two points. If he goes 10th or 14th I get one point.)

C At the end of the draft all points are tallied for each mock and the winner gets $100 dollars from the loser.

Note: I am the two-time reigning and undefeated champion of the competition. Anyone else interested in joining be wary of this.
