Sactown Royalty Draft Extravaganza, 2011 - The Deadline Approaches

Welcome to the 4th annual Sactown Royalty Draft Extravaganza. Bragging rights could be yours if you correctly select this year's Kings draft picks. 

UPDATE - The field is set. 113 submissions are listed at the end of this post.  They are listed alphabetically so that you may authenticate your picks. Please email me or drop me a note in the thread if your picks are not correct. No more submissions will be accepted. We will provide the list in player order in  a new post tomorrow (6/23).

Ball in Cup was the prognosticator of prognosticators in 2008, correctly guessing Sean Singletary as a 2^nd round pick (no one had Jason Thompson in the 1^st round, and NO ONE had Patrick Ewing Jr. in the 2^nd round. In 2009 almost half of the field of 83 got Rubio’d, while 12 participants correctly selected Evans and Casspi (everyone whiffed on Brockman). Per the rules (written by yours truly), yours truly was determined to be the winner by virtue of getting my picks in first (n’yah). Last year thizboy27 used one of his career five comments to correctly pick both DeMarcus Cousins and Hassan Whiteside(!).

The rules for this year –

• In the comments section of this post, let us know who you think the Kings will draft with their 1st round pick, the 35th pick and the 60th pick. It is legal to enter "trade" for any/all picks if you think that the Kings are going to deal the pick(s), but the trade has to be announced after you submit your picks and before the draft the draft is completed (let's say 30 minutes after the draft since the Kings own the very last pick).
• In case of a tie, the correct selection of the 1^st round pick will be the tie breaker. The 2^nd tie breaker will be the 35th pick. The 3rd tie breaker is the 60th pick. The final tie breaker is the earliest entry.

• One entry per person. Once you have entered you may not change your picks, unless you can prove that you are Chad Ford. The advantage to entering early is the tie breaker edge, while the advantage of waiting is any extra bit of news that you may pick up between now and the deadline.

• Entry deadline is Tuesday, June 21st, midnight PST.

We will regularly update the entries in the bottom of this post, so keep an eye out once you enter your picks to make sure that they are recorded accurately.

Good luck!
