If Wright and Ellis put up fewer shots and play better defense, Warriors will be in the play offs and scaring people.

[...] Morris who went to Houston at No. 14. Who do they pick ? Klay Thompson. Some say it went according to script. But that’s like picking for the year 1989. Its so Run TMC like and Don Nelson is in [...]

Several folks have mentioned Josh Smith … well, we could have had a player like that – his name is Chris Singleton.

I hate to say it but Monta is definitely going to get traded guys. Hopefully its not for Lual Deng or even Iguadala. The smart thing to do would be to give up Ellis and Biedrins for Bynum. Jerry West can work his magic.

Overall, good draft. There is no trade out there that makes the W’s a title contender now, but a back court rotation of Ellis, Curry and Thompson could win with the right bigs and coaching in the future. The quickest way to contention is to build around your good pieces, not swap them out.

Also, Ricky & DKnight, what yo be smoking? At best, all Reggie and Biedrins will get you is Kwame Brown. From the Nuggets’ perspective, Nene for Monte … maybe.

As much as i would love d howard, a trade for him is not going to happen from the warriors. I dont get why people actually think this could or would happen, and if it did how it would be good for us? Even if we could some how get howard, that would mean trading everything with any value from the Warriors to get him. And then why would he sign with us? are we going to give up our team for a one year lease? Howard going to a team in a destination he does not want, with a non playoff team, thats bad enough. But all of that plus no more players worth anything?

As Warriors fans we put a lot of value in Ellis, and he’s a great player i admit, but he is not going to get a trade for an elite big. We over-value him in this area.

Ricky B, we have plenty of players who score. Warriors were one of the highest scoring teams, as always, and Ellis did not score all of the average 103 ppg.

Reggie and Biedrins for Nene would be good.

Hey Look it again!!

I cannot imagine trading Monta. Who the heck will pick up the scoring? Klay, if all works out and he turns out to be the “savior” will take a few years to prime.

I’ve said it before, unless you are getting Dwight Howard, a Pau Gasol, or Lamarcus, then why bother pulling the trigger on Monta. Otherwise, you are swapping pieces just for the sake of doing so – why bother?

I would trade Reggie and Biedrins for let say a Nene or a Dalembert. That would add positive value.
