I like this pick! People over-analyze height and speed, but this guy has heart, is smart, and can just plain play! He will be a very effective 6th or 7th guy and will just outplay the opposing team’s reserve forwards!

For those who actually play will know, he is just the dude you want to be on your pick-up team. You are not going to care whether he’s just 6-7 or a true 6-10!

Go to the 8 min mark of the ESPN podcast to hear a pretty interesting 5 minutes on Harrison Barnes.

Jenkins was good as a rookie starter. He’ll get even better. He gets better as his confidence grows. Hopefully he’ll learn to penetrate and dish

Interesting that we did not go after a Point Guard. With Curry’s ankle, you almost need a backup plan.

You may have a sports car but it could be missing a tire…

I think Green could work his way into a 6th or 7th man position, though it would require some creative coaching on Mark Jackson’s part. If Green can defend 3s, I would love to see him handle and distribute to Klay and Steph. I also think he will be a serious impact player on the boards given the opportunity and he could be a serious scoring threat off the bench.

Festus could also be very interesting.

Barnes, I guess we’ll see. I think as balance goes, we could use the more aggressive man on the boards and defender and passer as a starter, and that’s Green.

The coach needs to give the man a serious chance. I look at Popovich or Phil Jackson and wonder what they would do, and I keep coming back to the fact that they either start the more aggresive man, or put him in first off the bench and finish games with him.

Can we get Calderon after the Raptors amnesty him?

Hey DKnight007 – your boy PJ3 almost fell out of the first round. Had the Dubs listened to you, he would have been off the board at #7. We should all be grateful you’re not in charge.

^^^^^^^^
Uhhh…the only reason why he fell is because they found out he has a knee injury. I didn’t know he had a knee injury.

He wound up with a perennial title team in OKC, so we’ll how he ends up.

^^^^^^^^
You take the best available player at #30.
Jeff Taylor is going to be a better player than Ezeli….watch.

Ezeli was not personally hand picked by West? Who said that?

Ezeli will be a stiff….mark my words. They could have added stiff backup center in FA.

Tim Kawakami’s article that the Warriors should pick a small guard? POOF-Gone!..I cant find it. Funny.
