What has Brad Miller ever won except the all crybaby award which Monroe will be the frontrunner in no doubt.

Rudy Gay type players = winning

Just ask Richard Jefferson

Better odds of moving down than up.
4th seed moved up to #1 once since Tank 84:
1987. Spurs. David Robinson.

62% chance of picking 4-7.
Two more days to try to inspire dreams of Wall or Turner in a completely disinterested fan base catching on to the shell game sales talk season ticket moving campaign.

Time's up.

Dump the 6th pick.

No Turner. No Cousins. No Sale. Pfft.

Who do we tank for next year?

It's not good enough.
He's the most overpaid SF in the Pacific Division.

Interesting. This is one comparison I haven't heard before. I like it.

Rusty Simmons on KNBR reported how the Warriors FO thought Wes Johnson was most able to contribute right away and that he'd be their selection over Favors or Cousins due to them trying to save their asses. They don't want another project. BFD, your jobs are toast in half a year anyway losers.

doesnt take a genius to tell Johnson was the best fit the smart ones have been saying it for awhile now and the others are still talking about the tall feather people.

lol at people believing Nellie pre-draft. If you think Mullin played his cards close to the chest when it came to trades just look back at Nelson come draft time.

Nelson is many things but he is not a bad drafter. Read a book the other day that re-visited how he was the architect of the Dirk draft and subsequent Nash trade on draft night. He ain't a knucklehead.

Ho boy.
The Wes Johnson campaign continues...

Ha. Faces on EVERYONE as those slots were announced confirm: 2 man draft. Period.

Chris Cohan · Post #153 » by **Chris Cohan** » Wed May 19, 2010 6:04 am

How's that?
I nailed this all stone cold.

Chris Cohan · Post #154 » by **Chris Cohan** » Wed May 19, 2010 6:07 am

Plant the Aldrich/Monroe also-ran hype early.
Make it seem like they were always desirable.

The Warrior Way.

Subaculta · Post #155 » by **Subaculta** » Wed May 19, 2010 6:08 am

wait, you nailed statistical probability?!

no, no. not for that.

the fact that you would come to this board to gloat... and rub Warrior's fan's faces in the fact that they ended up with a pick they're not happy with.

All Warriors fans need to learn how this all works, once and for all.
Spare me the whining.

Two out of 3, I really thought SAC would get 3rd since they got hosed last season, Stern is ruthless.

Subaculta · Post #158 » by **Subaculta** » Wed May 19, 2010 6:10 am

I'd still prefer Wall/Turner/Favors.

after that every player has warts.
the Warrior's probably won't have a shot Cousins/Johnson... so the conversation has to shift to the realistic options (Aldrich/Monroe etc)

but if you think we should still talk about the five best players in this draft I'm ready to listen to the reasoning behind that.

You had it.

Philly with Holiday and Turner?
Forget about it. Iguodala should fetch good stuff. Elton Brand still a major problem.

there's no whining. It's annoyance. I dislike Rowell ("Cohan's Monta Ellis"), and Cohan, but they have nothing to do with ping pong balls.
