GSW Draft Pick Watch

[orangello]

I know that this seems a little premature but I thought it would be fun to keep this updated form time to time, like weekly or so.

Currently the GSW are tied with the 23rd best record in the league. What does that mean? It means that the jazz would get their pick and it would be #8.

Here is the list of teams with a record at or below the Warriors.

Washington
New Jersey
Houston
New Orleans
Minnesota
Detroit
Charlotte

Lets hope it stays that way.

Damn, I am a bit worried. That is one horrible roster without Curry. I think if Curry misses much of the season they are easily in the bottom seven of the league. Even with Curry they are going to be cutting it close to seven.

One thing I am unsure of with the protection: Is it where they end up at the end of the season, or where they are after the lottery draw?

Pretty sure it's the lottery draw.

Don't worry, I'm sure Cleveland will finish with a worse record, as well. Plus, I don't think Curry will miss too much.

Also...this thread already exists in the general NBA section. But whatever.

Sad part is I kind want the jazz to lose this weekend

I deserves to be in the jazz section

Damn that could be sweet. If that is the case and they get the 8th pick that is a descent shot at the top 3. Kind of like last year huh...

We would only get the pick if it was 8 after the lottery, not before.
There is no chance of getting top 3 with that pick.
Our own pick would be a different story if we end up sucking this year.
I think our own pick will be worse though. With the number of guys we play this year, we will win a few games if only because our legs are less weary.

Correct me if I'm wrong on the GS pick if someone knows differently, or if my grammar was off.

TIA

Oh than I misunderstood him. I thought if it was 8 or higher before the lottery we got it. The number 8 pick has a 2-3% chance og being a top 3.

Thanks orangello, I'm interested in these updates.

The best thing someone can to to not see good basketball is to stop watching. Be a fan, root for the win, believe in the core players.

I think this tank for a higher pick is a product of our insecurity as Jazz fans. San Antonio got one good pick and has been a contender for years since while turning late first and second round picks into solid role players. We have that good pick player, in fact we may have three of them, so screw the lottery for our own picks. It's awesome that the Jazz may still have a lottery pick even while they are making the playoffs.

I'd argue that we in effect have 4 good picks, the other one being Favors.

Yes I agree we should build on who we have. If everyone reaches their potential in 2-3 years I think we have the weapons to contend.
