No more safe picks, take the risk at 7 for the player with the most potential upside and the best chance at being a STAR regardless of position and even if there is a bust factot. Top teams are built on STAR players and at least one difference maker which the Warriors haven’t had in decades. Draft with STAR potential in mind and acquire the best assets.

Arnett Moultrie is far better than any of the guys being considered on this blog. He also has a proven track record as he dominated in college, whereas the guys being discussed where simply middle of the road types according to their numbers.

BTW; The guy talking about that old retard Lamar Odom (LO). Drop your crack pipe, Odom is done and is a borderline nut at this point. I live here in the LA area, he wants to play here and generally only here, yet neither team has any interest in him. It’s time for LO to commit full time to reality TV, his NBA days are done. Or should I say, his days as a good player are done. Some foolish team may take a run at him, however I hope that team is NOT the usually foolish GS Warriors.

Don’t worry guys. One of MKG, Barnes, or Robinson will slip to #7 to us…

Roy is going to come off the bench wherever he lands.

The warriors need to just go ahead and make a play for lamar odom at sf, and then draft for star power seeing that lamar would sure up that 3 spot. If Brandon Roy really comes back and considers playing for the dubs imagine having Curry,Roy,Odom,Lee,and Bogut as our starting 5.

Get Lillard, if available at #7! Hometown kid with same attributes as Curry coming out of college (incredible scorer, a willing passer, though not a natural PG, good kid, hard-worker), but much quicker and more athletic. Trade Curry and Wright to the Hornets for Jarett Jack and their #10. Use the #10, #30 and Richard Jefferson or Andris Biedrins to get Luol Deng from the Bulls.

How dumb would it be to tank the season, simply to draft another guy for the bench. In all honesty it’s never a good move drafting a white american basketball pplayer high unless he truely dominated in college (which is rare). Quality/above average white american basketball players is a rare as quality/medal winning black american olympic swimmers.

A pathetic team like the Warriors cannot afford to take that type of risk.

Championship and or competitive teams are NEVER made up of Leonard, Bogut, Lee types. Especially when team with slow unathletic type like Curry, and Thompson as the core of the team. Get real.

Basketball teams need speedy athletes who can, run, jump, defend and aren’t affraid to attack. Who in the above noted group does much of that. Leonard only averaged 13 and 8 in college. If he can dominate there ,he’s nothing more than a career bench player in the NBA.

The Warriors are annual losers aka draft lottery participants due to the fact they tend to draft projects, when in fact they have no success developing projects. Projects belong on winners where they can sit and learn. The Warriors are losers who need to gravitate to proven commodities.

Dunleavy was a gym rat, look how long it took him to simply become medicore.

The Dubs need a speedy PG who can score, penatrate and dish, the need and big atletic wing who can score rebound and defend specifically on the inside, and in general they need more athletes. They have the fundamental guys, now they need creators and a bruiser off the bench.
