Was unseren ersten Pick angeht, scheint wohl Sean Williams eine gute Wahl.
Ist Williams nicht eigentlich als später 1.Round oder früher 2.Round Pick eingeteilt ? Hätte ansicht nichts gegen ihn, soll ja ein guter Rebounder und Arbeiter seinm dazu relativ schnell auf den Beinen. Schnell mal X-Over lesen.
was ist diese x-over für ne seite?Noch nie was davon gehört...
:laugh2: :laugh2:
williams wäre von den anlagen her ok, aber er scheint off-court mehr als nur ne dumme nuss zu sein, also von daher würde ich ihn auf keinen fall an 18 ziehen.
That being said, the Warriors still have some work to do to capitalize on the good vibes they generated this year. Matt Barnes came out of nowhere to become a key reserve and Mickael Pietrus really improved his game. Both are now free agents and with the team already well above the salary cap, it’s unlikely that they will be able to keep either player. They also have extensions coming up for Biedrins and Ellis, which could be why Golden State is shopping Jason Richardson. Getting rid of his big contract would make it easier to keep the rest of the team together, though they would be losing one of their best scorers.
Golden State is also rumored to be after Yi Jianlian in the draft, which makes sense in the long run, but he probably wouldn’t help the team much next season. It appears that Don Nelson and Chris Mullin have the future of the Warriors in mind and this summer could have some radical changes. Despite the big upset, the Warriors are not legitimate contenders yet. At least now, they seem closer than ever before.
:laugh2:Free Throw: Please, Andris Biedrins, for the love of God, shoot your free throws granny style! It can’t possibly be any more embarrassing than the horrendous display you currently call a free throw attempt and you might actually make a few once in a while. It’s hard to believe that Biedrins will soon sign for tens of millions of dollars to play basketball when he could be beaten in a free throw shooting contest by an average ninth grade girl.
Golden State (18, 36, 46)
How they can win: The Warriors need frontcourt help as bad as Greg Oden needs Botox. If Jason Smith were available here, the pick should be a no-brainer. If he’s not, the Warriors would still benefit by drafting a small forward because there is the possibility that Matt Barnes and Mickael Pietrus could leave this offseason via free agency.
How they can win big: The best scenario would be for Golden State to take Smith in the first round and then hope that Syracuse G/F Demetris Nichols is available when they pick in the early second round. Nichols, a long-armed three-point bomber, was made for Don Nelson’s system. He would be a terrific addition regardless of what they do with Barnes and Pietrus.
How they can lose: Golden State would be in a tough spot if they drafted two swingmen, say Spain’s Rudy Fernandez and Nichols, and then were able to re-sign Barnes and Pietrus cheaper than they expected. Golden State would be overloaded at small forward and still very thin up front. They probably would have to engineer a trade for some type of forward or center before the season started.
