Draft Lottery Hype & Inevitable Post-Disappointment Fallout

[Chris Cohan]

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.

Wall and Turner are franchise changers. The end.
The look on Riley and co.'s face said it all.

[Subaculta]

so should we still talk about Wall and Turner?

That girl has walked out the door. If you still want to talk about them feel free.

lol, larry riley's reaction was priceless.

[Subaculta]

Larry Riley is an idiot, and this team won't make the playoffs again until he's no longer GM, book it.

[BW32]

[Chris Cohan]

Someone recommended trading the pick. I concur.
Maggette can't be moved for just the #6 in a crap draft and the Rowell Braintrust would NEVER admit its idiocy and do it. But there's Yao potential with Biedrins in that mix, etc.

Something stupid and gimmicky and cheap.

Seriously.
The Russian was a statue, on the other hand.
Dude came to play. Bet that #3 ends up in Cleveland and does nothing good.

[Subaculta]

like someone already mentioned, Maggette for AK (with a swap of picks) would be an option.

[Chris Cohan]

HA. Pipe dream. Kirilenko's expiring contract is one of the biggest trade chips in the league now. Iguodala for Utah, perhaps. No reason to waste longterm money on a one dimensional one-on-one scrub like Maggette.

[Subaculta]

but Maggette is a reasonably paid top 40 player in league. AK for Maggette it is.

Sure is funny to see all of CC's vehement hate on even using Maggs in a limited role (mostly because we have to...) when he was the only one applauding the signing.

[Chris Cohan]

Funniest part about harping on my brilliance from 2 years ago.... why act obsessed with me? You know my take, you know it's the truth, and we all agree on most of this stuff already!

Whereas I simply measure the ridiculous suggestion that Utah is giving up a major chip for a crappy contract like Maggette, swing, and hit it out of the park:

Not in a million years.

[Subaculta]

first off, it's true you have a high batting average.

You've missed on a few things (Maggette signing being good, Rowell being a savvy front office type).

but you keep nailing all this other stuff (calling that the Warriors would slip in the lottery when it was a statistical probability)

second let me say that I expect better use of the English language from you (check post).

[Chris Cohan]

No miss. I was aping a known forum contributor who has claimed to have "inside" Rowell access for years, in multiple places. I came here as ROWELL, smoked house, and acted exactly like the real Rowell does with media, etc. But I'm totally method. What I believed and what I didn't is a disinction only the gods can make at this point.

[Subaculta]

oh now I get it. (three years of Rowell/Cohan posts to try and "smoke" everyone)

good job. give yourself an extra pat on the back just for me.

[bay2hk]

Only reason why the wizards won was because David Stern banged Irene Polin the night before.

[Chris Cohan]

I helped smoke them out. Quite seriously. This ain't me suffering from delusions of grandeur, it's the troof. You should THANK me.
You're welcome.

The saga continues.....
Turns out Dan Martinez and warriorsworld were indeed in cahoots the ENTIRE time.
Flunkster Dude was a play. Like I said.

But back to this draft lotto: Riley's face suggests this is about to get even WORSE.

[Subaculta]

what you're not getting - for years prior to your arrival Warrior fans on this board were doing a perfectly good job of wallowing in misery.

you're job of being that little kid from the Kids in the Hall sketch where he points out the obvious and makes everyone miserable... it's not needed.

Cohan sucks
Rowell sucks
Reilly sucks
Nelson's coaching sucks

you holding a magnifying glass up to the suck and poking us isn't bringing to light some sort of Watergate-level conspiracy.

It's been borderline "troll" since you made your return last year.

if you (as a Warrior fan) want to join in on the discussion, then welcome.
But if you've come here today to remind everyone of everything that might potentially make us miserable, then $%# off.

[Chris Cohan]

I'm nailing this season/offseason in incredible fashion.
I'm really glad Riley IMMEDIATELY said trade today. Not thrilled he gets to talk to other teams.

Subaculta is back with a vengeance tonight! FTW
