VOTE OR DIE!: Golden State Warriors in the 2007 NBA Draft

Alright I think you know what's at stake. If you don't, well then do your homework (see Decide what the Warriors will do in the 2007 NBA Draft) immediately because it's already late and you'll be marked down a full letter grade.

Step right up my friends and cast your vote on Who should the Warriors take in the 1st round of the 2007 NBA Draft? on the front page poll to your right.

Here's the carefully selected options:

  • Yi Jianlian of The Yi Movement fame
  • Thadeus Young
  • Tiago Splitter
  • Sean Williams
  • Jason Smith
  • Josh McRoberts
  • Nick Young
  • Rudy Fernandez
  • Trade Jason Richardson to move up
  • Trade Monta Ellis to move up

Publicize this poll like crazy. Tell your family. Tell your friends. Tell your family to tell your friends. Tell your friends to tell your family- or something like that. You get the point. Spread the word about this world famous poll (email, message boards, phone calls, voicemail, IM, VOIP, pages, snail mail, morse code- whatever you gotta do, make it happen). There's no reason why every single member of Warriors Nation worldwide should not vote on this poll.

U got my vote!
If bandwagon Jumpers can storm the Oracle Arena during the playoffs, they can read my posts on myspace which references to you guys on Voting or dying... (It's like living free or Die Hard!) I'll spread the word like the Mutabo Virus... SO next season when we make the playoffs again, some of those cats will be educated!

FYI... That Vote or die Pic of Mya is bangin' it makes me wanna vote and slap her @$$! She's hella thick!

do you mean with the 18th pick?

by llamalimbo1 on Jun 25, 2007 11:35 PM PDT reply actions  

Whatever it takes
However Mullin and Nellie can pull it off and end up with Yi.

The choices on this poll of course aren't exclusive (trading JR or Monta to move up might be what it takes to get Yi), but Fantasy Junkie and I wanted to throw out a wealth of options. This year's poll was difficult because of the plethora of options  at #18 and scenarios that could go down before the Warriors turn to pick, but we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

and it's Yi by a landslide so far
if he miraculously falls to #18, we should take him.  but that ain't gonna happen

s'all about Thad Young!

Lol
Unrelated to the poll....I was thinking the same thing Drawiz.  I was scrolling down, saw that, and immediatly scrolled back up.

God daaaaammmn...

Question
Anybody know what Yi's states were with his cba team this past year? His numbers in the fiba tournament weren't exactly impressive, i think there were around 6 points 5 boards a game.

Keep in mind he had to split minutes with
Yao and Wang Zhi Zhi.
Tony aka Drawlz600 is AWESOME!!!!

BLATANT ADVARTISEMENT!!!!
EVERYONE VOTE FOR TIAGO SPLITTER!!!!
Tony aka Drawlz600 is AWESOME!!!!

The best option is missing:
Trading down for multiple picks in the 20-30 range, such as with Phoenix or Philadelphia.

Alternatively, we could deal the #18 for the Sonics's two second rounders (#31 and 38 IIRC). That would mean 4 nonguaranteed contracts and 4 shots for Don Nelson to find some unheralded talent on the real cheap.

clever...
I actually laughed out loud at that

Yes
it is. I like Thaddeus Young though what do u think of him sleepy

by gizardwizzlizard on Jun 26, 2007 12:41 PM PDT up reply actions  

draft
i would like to see us pick Tiago Splitter at #18 and i do not agree with anyone who wants us to trade richardson to move up. we just made the playoffs for the first time in 13 long years so why dare mess with a good thing.

I voted
for Maya, but she wasn't one of the options, so I went with Splitter
Ronald Reagan was a jerk.

splitter?
those who forget history are doomed to todd fullers, patrick o'bryants, and adonal foyles.  [only biedrins turned out well, but he's a more lithe center than the rest]the scouting report for splitter says strong defender, no offense, mechanical, bad free throw shooter, tell me if you've heard this song before.  of course, anything is better than josh mcroberts.

For the record
Gil wants you to vote too.

Not trying to bring up bad memories or anything malicious like that, just sayin'.

Odds of getting Thaddeus not looking so good
GSoM mock draft fave Thaddeus Young just ranked #4 in John Hollinger's new college draft statistical rankings:

I'm hoping the other GM's don't notice ...

by jgurney on Jun 26, 2007 5:35 PM PDT reply actions  

wish: thad, realistically: sean williams
I like Yi but it's almost certain we would need to make a move to get him. That idea, I don't like as much. I think at #18, Sean Williams would be a nice pick. I'd rather take a good player with a risky attitude than another risk project with a good personality.
