The Official Golden State Pick (Top 7 protected) Thread for 12-13 season

Y'all sure? I think I'm with Spazz on this one.

I just threw up, and went number 1 and 2 in my pants. Agreeing with Spazz? Eww.

It seems I was wrong and that it is 7 this draft and 6 in 14. Otherwise we get 2 second rounders.

I am just as sickened by this as you are Ugli. I'm so depressed about it I'm going to drown my sorrows in a few cups of hot chocolate, rewatch 1984 and a few Harline, Collie, Unga and George highlights then go to a full serve gas station. I should be better by then.
 
I hope GS keep their pick. None of those kids deserves a ruined career.
 
Is Kanter white? I need to memorize the arbitrary racial classification of each national origin.
 
He's white enough, so I went with it.

Oh, I don't disagree with what you're saying. It's a bit insulting to classify someone as a "stiff" based on his skin color. But it's also silly because the labels themselves carry little meaning.

The Jazz will get another 1 year rental and let the rookies rot on the bench. If we picked up Irving, he would probably still be sitting on the bench behind Tinsley and Earl. LOL
 
Who cares who they draft. The Jazz will just sign some journeyman vet and Ty will sit the rookie on the bench because they hadn't paid their dues or whatever dumbass rationale he uses.

I'm hoping this crap changes next year when all the contracts expire. Having said that, it won't matter for Burks at that point; his development and/or desire to be on the team will have completely been destroyed by then, if he continues to stockpile DNP's.
 
I'm pretty frustrated with the jazz so I say who cares. Even if the jazz get the 12 and 18 picks in this draft I'm sure they can blow it by
1-drafting a player that duplicates another player on the roster,
2-rating character much higher than basketball skill,
3- letting whoever they draft sit on the bench.

Go Jazz.

I think especially with those 2 points - they could have drafted Kawhai Leonard and play him from the get go with Hayward. I know Burks has amazing potential but having him stuck behind Hayward isn't going to do anything to bring out that potential.

Leonard has proven to be a SOLID defender who can rebound and steal at a great rate. He's also developing into a decent 3pt shooter. He size means he could play with Hayward interchangeably at SG/SF pretty easily.

Dude plays for Popovich. He would not have reached that potential under Corbin.

And if we drafted him, then we have talked about the fact that he did not prove anything yet to play 10+ min

Burks would be killing it in San Antonio.
