7. Golden State Warriors- Tyler Zeller, F/C, North Carolina #44 [/B]
Follow me on this. They don't seem to be too enthralled by the Joneses and prior to the medical red flag Jared Sullinger received, the Warriors strongly considered him at #7. However, they have also worked out Tyler Zeller, who would also fit their want for a backup PF/C with some scoring ability. His 1.5 blocks per night is also not too shabby. Zeller at 7 might feel high to some, but remember, I also had Zeller as a possibility to Portland prior to the lottery, so it shouldn't be uncharted water for him. Think of it as an Ekpe Udoh do-over.

If this (your top 6) is how it shakes out, I'd rather that we take Lillard at 7 than Zeller. I'd like to have a solid backup for if (when) Steph Curry goes down...and I think Lillard would fill that spot in nicely for us.

Plus he's a hometown kid...

No matter how many times I look at this draft board layout, no player fits a need more than Jenkins, especially with Mayo being a restricted free agent. How you would go into another season without a 3 point shooter would blow my mind.


And its amazing how anytime Jenkins is mentioned its to the Bulls and how its a perfect fit...shyt MEMPHIS is a perfect fit!

you guy's aren't bringing back Mayo

Given the cap situation and the fact that we've tried to trade him about 4 times I doubt it.



Not that I would want him back either way

Someone please explain to me why Bradley Beal is ranked higher than Jeremy Lamb? To me Lamb is definitely going to be the better pro, and its not even close.

A air head going into the league at 19...I wouldn't waste a lottery pick on him

oh hell naw how did Machado rise? He was supposed to go to the Lakers with the last pick. We need PG's asap, and from what I have heard and seen from him is that he is a really improved shooter and I was hoping Machado stayed with us. The Knicks or any team better not fukk it up and get him before us. And even though I highly highly doubt it, but the LAkers are supposed to and want to look to try to trade for Perry Jones, but I doubt it highly.

Knicks need PG depth, so you best believe we're taking one of the best passing PGs in the draft.

there are plenty of "air heads" in the league that put up numbers. This kid put up 18 per game on 48 percent shooting from the perimeter. He gonna be a steal for someone.
