I just started playing around with Chad Ford's lottery machine in class and he has us taking Smart with the first pick. Would we take him over McLemore?

Actually, he doesn't have us taking McLemore at all. It looks like he thinks we go Smart, then Porter based on availability

I've posted this in most threads when Ford's mock machine is brought up. I ran it a bunch of time to determine how he thinks we covet each player:

Smart
Len
McLemore
Porter

Shabazz

Oladipo

Anthony Bennett

Basically, Noel falls into one of the gaps above, but I haven't been able to hit one that clarifies where he falls.

eta - Finally just hit one where he has us taking Porter over Noel, that cleans it up a bit.
