These mock's would be better if they explained the up/down movement and backed up their opinions with something tangible. It's like a soap-opera. There are so many smokescreens that it's tough to come to any conclusions. Does Smart continue to wow Orlando, or did Exum's camp say or do something to push him into a bigger market? Are they simply guessing (of course) and trying to get more page views.
 
To confirm, we haven't had Exum in, only seen him at a joint workout? If even that?
 
Can't think of anything that might have surfaced recently that explains Jabari to 2, and Wiggins to 3. What a heist for Philly that would be.
 
Exum gon' fall to the Lakers, and he'll become the next Kobe.

If your company is based on predictions and you claim to be the best as DX does, why not be as transparent as possible?

there's lesser draft sites, in other sports too, that at-least put out a few paragraphs explaining the movement with an updated Mock. Some like Walterfootball.com leave the prior mocks pick below each of the updated picks, with an explanation of the move. When recruiting services update their lists they also put out bulleted lists explaining the big moves, dunno whats up with DX in that regard. The scouting reports are top-notch though.

It's been noted many times that the Jazz have a very good idea of what they'd be getting from Exum. The guy that invites the international players to play int he Hoops Summit works for the Jazz.

I'd have to argue that that shouldn't be sufficient at all. I'd want to see him as close to the draft as possible, considering how young he is and the fact that I'd want DL, Perrin and even now Snyder to get a first hand look at him. These aren't things you leave to "oh, well so and so saw him in x months ago".

By contrast, Orlando knew a **** ton about Smart last year but have worked him out twice this year.
