Wall is the consensus #1 pick, he doesn't move from that slot. If we win it, we trade to #2, and get something nice back in return. Hopefully it's NJ so we get our 2011 pick back, and some extras.

I'd take Cous over Wall 9 out of 10 times because of our need! I don't want to deal with another PG issue...NJ has a big need for a PF. I think they will look closely at Cous and have him play their PF next to Lopez if they got the 1st pick

47.7% chance we stay in the top four (where we get a crack at an elite prospect)
52.3% chance we finish with a pick 5-7

We're gonna need a little bit of luck
Catchall:The Bucks traded him for Monta Ellis and did well in that trade.If they can move Biedrins and Jefferson without losing much more than Barnes and another pick, I will be genuinely impressed.Iguodala is a short-sighted contract. Overrated player.

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.

New Jersey gets it for sure. New ownership and all. Wall will sell tickets.

No way New Orleans gets it. They can't even keep the team together based on the finances. Sorry franchise (not as bad as the Cohan's though).

We're getting #2 or #3.

Stern has been hyping up our team being for sale because he wants Cohan out of the way.

What better way to get potential buyers to go all the way than to give them a nice, shiny Evan Turner or Demarcus Cousins?

Hey guys...I am big bobcats fan but Im really hoping you guys get the #1 slot. Since Im from Charlotte I have watched Curry since High School(Literally....lol) and I think that if you paired him with Curry/Ellis you guys would be sick. I realize tho, that you all would have to trade maybe ellis because you cant have 3 combo guards on one team lol

But anyway...heres to the warriors getting Wall! :D

I still want Turner

Then trade Monta for Wesley

PG-Curry
SG-Turner
SF-Wes
PF-Randolph
C-Beans

I would weep tears of joy watching that team going out and playing, although that team is tweener filled.....

Turners more sparkling than shiny with Big Cuz kind of a sharp sepia. Either would be gravy though.

If we miss out on them, we have Dedfart George to blame. Super late season form from the fat vet dicklips.

Yeah I just talked to Stern he gave me the good news as well. He told me to keep it hush hush so he doesnt get in any trouble.

Not sure when it is actually happening so maybe you are correct, but it is being broadcast here at 7:30 pm.

Warriors need the #2 pick. Turner needs to be on the Warriors and the Warriors need Turner.
