The Heat have the 26th pick in the first round and 55th in the first round . 40 draft prospects already worked out by the Heat - Hope that means they will in fact value the draft more than they have in some years even though they are picking late.

There is certainly a chance for them to pick qualities players at both spots. They are mocked to be taking Napier from UCONN in the first round - him at 26th would be a bit of a steal - He may not be a top tier of the draft type of a guy but he is a quality prospect that could help us.

According to all of the "experts" there isn't even 10 NBA ready players available for this draft. Danny Ainge says that this may be the deepest draft in his tenure as a GM.

Who would you believe? The "experts"? or Danny Ainge?

The Celtics are praying that Joel Embiid drops to #6.

Thats just a case of Danny Ainge trying to keep from tipping his hand.

2014 Mock Draft | NBADraft.net

Nbadraft.net is usually accurate with their mocks and predictions.

They currently have us taking Cleanthony Early and Napier going 20th

If Napier drops to our spot though, we have to take him

The experts have been wrong before. This is certainly a great draft and is very deep. I like the though of drafting Napier, if we can't get Lowry. Chalmers has to go. I'm also content with getting CJ Wilcox from UW. Either way, no matter the position, it will be very helpful given the holes that we have and the infusion of talent that's needed.

No disrespect to the player the Cavs draft, and no my comment does not mean I wish him bad things, but who ever they draft - I hope it doesnt work out just because its the Cavs... Hopefully, who ever it is, eventually leaves them as well and moves on to better things.

McDermott traded to the Bulls for their littany of picks. Here's hoping Napier falls to the Heat. Long way to go.

heat will have to move up to grab napier. no way he falls to mid 20s. to many teams want a PG.. Miami should offer 2 1sts, this years 2nd, and Cole. That should get us Napier.

TJ Warren to the Suns. That guy's going to be a stud for them.

Yeah, I'm willing to say good bye to Cole if it gets Napier.

Not sure Napier makes it past Toronto at 20. Miami may have to make a move soon.
