Suggs? Sure, love it. Probably not going to happen, 50/50 if we end up with #4.

Don't you think Kispert is a little redundant with Jessup? They both figure to be shooting specialists off the bench with marginal defensive ability and similar measurables.

Kispert is projected to be around 10 to 15 in a stronger draft. JJ was picked 51st. I hope he turns out to be good but I dont want to live in the days of Anthony Tolliver and Reggie Williams again. I hope he is good, but if JJ turns out to be Korver cuz they were both drafted 51st, or even a Richardson. That being said, if Kispert is the higher prospect in a stronger draft, would that make him more likely to be Dan Majerle or Wally Szczerbiak, the better player.

The above is some weird thinking, but I just want smart players that can shoot. I thought the IQ on the team was low at times as was the outside shooting. Of course, Suggs would need some lottery help to acquire.

Without knowing who is picking 1-3 it's tough to say if Suggs will be available at 4. I could easily see a GM fall in love with Suggs and take him #2 after Cade.

What would you do if the first three went Cade, Suggs, Green and we had 4? Would you take Kuminga, Mobley or trade back?

The 2021 roster in total didn't even have bad outside shooting. Warriors rank 9th in the league in 3P%. Curry and Bazemore shot above 40%, Lee and Mulder just slightly below 40%, Wiggins still 38% and Poole 35%. That's actually fine. Oubre was bad (mostly from a horrible start, he improved a lot during the season) at 32% and Green a horrible 27%. The others didn't take enough shots to really put too much weight on the numbers.

I think the problem was more the lack of cohesion, partly due to lack of basketball intelligence, partly due to missing the time to practice and inexperience (injuries didn't help). But yeah, some of the line-ups didn't really work well also as a result of bad spacing. We have some players which are essentially not a scoring threat at all. Can't have too many of them on the field at the same time.

Ill take the agile 7 footer.
The Suggs thing means we jumped up in the lottery. Its a dream.

If you are asking who I prefer at the more likely slots
6/7 Barnes or Moody
14 Jalen Johnson or Kispert

Didn’t realize we would move up 3 spots if we lost the play in. That was a pretty clutch loss, fam.

#1 and #2 seem pretty obvious. If the Warriors are at #3 I think it would be Green, but not by a ton.

Kispert doesn't do much for me ... he's in the 3rd group somewhere.

Still dreaming of Cade and Green for the Warriors and all the reactions online.

I can't think of too many Warriors losses that had such a good consolation prize. I know the team is disappointed but there wasn't really much to gain in the playoffs considering how injured we were and quite a lot to gain with the loss.

Mobley all the way. High IQ, unselfish and good read and react player. Basically Wiseman’s weaknesses are his strengths.

Kuminga is super raw. Not a good read and react player, can get tunnel visioned and take bad shots. He might eventually develop into a great player, but do we need another project?

If anything this season taught us is we need players who can contribute right away, even our draft picks.

You look at Memphis, rookies like Desmond Bane and Xavier Tillman were able to make meaningful contributions.

We should be moving our picks.
