who do you think your favorite team is taking?

I think the warriors will take C Robert Swift - i don't know why i think this but with montgomery as coach, he would be able to develop(or at least relate to) a high school player. From what i've seen of Swift, he's an active big body who would be insurance if Damps decides to leave. Whatever they do, i hope they dont take childress. Just what the warriors would need, another swingman to go with richardson, pietrus and dunleavey.

I dont know why people hate on childress. I dont think he is a swingman. he is a legitimate 2 guard who can play the 3 when he needs to. and when he putws on some weight his potential will be endless.

I would be very happy if they take childress or swift. But I think it would be best if they trade down and look to make a trade for a very good player and go after a couple free agents. this draft is so up in the air that you are just as likely to draft a good a player in the bottom ten as in the top ten.

a little tid bit i found on pavel

"The Seattle workout was extremely impressive according to people in the gym, as he dominated Pavel Podkolzine in almost all the one on one and big man drills, while conceding some of the transition and shooting drills. One scout (not necessarily from Seattle) joked off the record that “Pavel is the type of guy that you lose your job over” because of how raw he has looked in workouts so far. Pavel was scheduled to meet up with Ramos for a rematch in Portland, but that will not happen for unknown reasons. "

From what i read about smith is he's super athletic - the only problem is the warriors have too many swingmen in dunleavey, richardson and pietrus who basically play the same positon. They could have dunleavey bulk up and move him into a point forwayd position and have him guard the PF, which is not out the question, looking at cliff robinson who isn't the bulkiest guy in the world.

I don't think the warriors will take a C in the draft cause I think theyre gonna move Murphy to the center position eventually. Just my 2 pennies

Hope Livingston falls to the Wizards at 5 but i doubt he'll make it that far....if hes gone i'd go with Childress, Gordon, or Bierdins...
