Mark,

If Marcus Williams continues to impress in workouts, Atlanta, who is
desperate for a pure point guard, may take him that high so I can see the
logic behind this mock. Thomas might fall to Boston in such a scenario.  

I'm not sure Toronto takes Aldridge. They are building around Bosh and
Aldridge seems redundant.  Perhaps Toronto trades down.  Now if Colangelo
believes Aldridge can become Bosh rather quickly, perhaps a re-signed Bosh
and Villenueva and cap fodder could be had for Pierce?
