blog question: who in this draft do you think will help the w’s?

I haven’t seen much of him, but what I have seen (in the two NCAA tournaments) didn’t reveal much of a back-to-the basket game or an ability to create offense. If that is an accurate summation, he would be down on my list. It depends on what the Warriors give up, but I wouldn’t relinquish too much. They need someone who can compliment Biedrins, not duplicate him. They don’t need another intangible guy, but a tangible one. More than anything else, they need someone who can create offense. Most of the games they lost, especially in the playoffs, their defense gave them a chance to win, and their offense failed them. If they had another creater, whether it was someone from the perimeter or someone who can go to work in the paint. Having to work so hard on offense, and relying on the 3-pointer, will be their demise. They’d be a much better team — even with the poor rebounding and lack of a low-post defense — if they could score better in the halfcourt set.

Nah, eventually Ny and Boston will get better again. Let’s hope we can stay up next year with Oden and Durant coming to the west.

Marcus, what would you think of the W’s getting up in the draft to get Joakim Noah? There is a lot of hate going on and his draft stock is falling. I think he can be great with us…

I think the fact that we’re named “Golden State” is the problem when it comes to our national appeal. While it is classic, it’s a little cheesy. Even with the Patriots’ success, the ‘New England’ name is hardly marketable. How about naming them ‘Boston Patriots’? Now that has appeal!

We need an actual city rather than a region or nickname. Imagine this: Garden State Nets or even Beaver State Trail Blazers. C’mon now. Can we please just be the Oakland Warriors?

I think the fans have done a good job of supporting the Warriors during the Cohen years, especially considering the poor product we’ve been given. Compared to our NFL and MLB teams, the Warriors are in a great position to sell tickets since the Warriors have an NBA monopoly in this area.

Thanks for such a good answer, especially the last point about the Bay Area market. Now, do you think the league could have a heart to heart with the referee corp in order for us to begin getting some half way decent calls. That would make us better fast!
