The Official Screw You Warriors Thread - 2013-2014 Draft Pick Watch

Warriors will be anywhere from 6th-8th even if healthy. If Curry or Bogut get injured they fall out of playoffs easily.

Also Warriors sneaked up on everyone last year. The scouting reports will be out on all of these players. They won't be catching anyone off guard next year.

My guess is honestly they will fall out of playoff race. I don't see Curry and Bogut making it through the season. And I think Iggy is overrated and the bench sucks now.

Me too, but I'm trying to temper my expectation... Landry & Jack added 5 wins last year IMO with their contribution off the bench. If you take 5 wins off the GSW last year, you're looking at #16 pick.

I think that's pretty realistic....
 
If this trade turns into a top 14 pick in one of the most loaded drafts ever, this will be one of the greatest trades in Jazz history.

If the pick somehow lands the Jazz either Wiggins or Parker, they might as well change the name of ESA to the Dennis Lindsey is ****ing Awesome Solutions Arena.

I would say the greatest trade in Jazz history is trading Deron for Kanter, Favors & Burke. No brainer.

But if we get actual value out of next years pick and the player pans out than yes maybe a bigger steal since we didn't give up anything of value. Won't be as good as our 3 players from the Deron trade but Deron had value. We gave up nothing!!! So pumped!

OK, but Dennis Lindsey had to do a triple somersault flip while holding a beer bottle to get Burke... that trade in itself is pretty awesome.

The Warriors are a jump shooting team. If they're on fire throughout the entire game, then they win. If not, then they lose. Losing Jack hurts them. He was instant offense off the bench. Landry was also important for their interior defense and rebounding. I think the Warriors might have taken a step back here. I like Iggy, and he brings some intangibles, but I don't see what he does for them better than Klay Thompson did already.

I think our pick from them will be in the teens--16-19 range. Although they were #21 in the draft, they were only two or three games total ahead of several teams like Atlanta and Chicago. At a minimum, Houston and Chicago should pass them, putting the pick at #19. Atlanta has a shot to pass them. Other teams to watch out for are Washington, Dallas with a healthy Nowitzki, and the mighty Pelicans with J'rue, Tyreke and a (hopefully healthy) Eric Gordon along with a surging Anthony Davis.

The Jazz's own pick should be around 8-10. Combining #8 + #18 + another asset might get the Jazz to #6.
 
Honestly, what would this board be without this thread? Excited to take this bish to new heights/lows.
 
I wont wish injury on anyone as that is pretty classless in my eyes but I do hope this blows up in the Tankers faces.

That's only Jason and Colton.. the mods earn their reps just like the rest of us... and Nate's post was rep-worthy.

To be more precise, it's only rep POWER that we have to burn. We have to earn our reps (green squares) the same as everyone else.

OK Guys so who's gonna be playing for the GSW next year?

Curry
Thompson
Iguodala/Barnes
Lee
Bogut

Compared to last year:

- Carl Landry likely GONE

- Jarrett Jack likely GONE

- The "surprise element" is GONE

- Iggy is more or less a more experienced Barnes, so it's not much of an improvement

=========================================

West's standing would likely be like this:

1. OKC
2. Spurs
3. HOU
4. Memphis
5. Clippers
6. Denver
7. GSW
8. Portland/DAL/Lakers

=========================================

Having said all that, my prediction is we'll get GSW #21 pick once again..

Thoughts???

If GS is healthy, I actually think they'll be better than the Nuggs and Grizz who have lost key cogs

May want to sticky this...just remember I was first!

OK, if the season ended today, we'd have a 1/30 chance of getting Wiggins (or Parker) with the GS pick. And a 1/30 chance with our own. That's nearly 7%!
I'll update this thread as the standings change ;-)

I prefer less precise.. easier to understand. Kudos, btw, for all the **** you've been taking. I'm not kidding, if I were you I would just start wholesale banning the stupids.

Yes. I didn't see/remember this thread. So I deleted my post. Thanks colton and hack. Admitting my mistake and then correcting it: hope that is the definition of respect!
