All the top 4 or 5 picks have pretty much ended their workouts. They're just sitting and waiting.

Still plenty of 2nd rounders /late first working out as late as Wednesday.

Will Barton coming to Minny to work out on Monday :yes:

I still think we're trading the pick. If the Wolves do what they do historically, then they've only really looked at one other player in that #18 range and that's Royce White. At least this makes Barton eligible to be picked.

It sounds like Minny's trying to make a huge move in some way, whether it be Jamal Crawford on draft night (this I can see, but I don't know for what) or *gulp* Pau :smh:

I don't think we'd be drafting for Chicago because this year you guys don't have bonus assets to give us to make moving down worthwhile. At least last year we managed to get the pick that turned into Malcolm Lee.

I don't like the thought of it, but they probably want him for the same reason why Washington took Okafor and Ariza.

Washington came to the conclusion that cap space doesn't mean shyt, so just get the best player your money can get and just see what happens. They're probably thinking the same thing. Rick's not trying to coddle more rookies. He wants to start winning now as does the team.

Just looked up Draft history stuff. Man, if you pick at #6 or #12 that's the kiss of death. Historically the best player chosen at #6 is Brandon Roy and he only played 5 years and at #12, Muggsy Bogues.

Bob Myers Warriors GM is in interviews saying it's only 70 7 footers in america from the age of 18-40 and if you have a chance to get a good 1 you have to take it. I dunno if he's tryna send a smokescreen.

Word is also that Golden State's considering Jeremy Lamb at #7 because the Warriors don't like any of the front court guys available to them.

Also, Milwaukee apparently loves John Henson but doesn't think he'll be there at 12.

Lastly, Houston offers the QO to Courtney Lee, so seemingly they plan on matching offers for Lee.
