Steph Curry was drafted by Larry Riley in 2009. Klay Thompson was drafted by Larry Riley in 2011. Draymond Green was drafted in 2012 and the Warrior’s GM at the time was was Bob Myers, but the Director of Scouting was Larry Riley.
Larry Riley got demoted DESPITE drafting all the Warriors stars. Warriors passed on Sengun to draft a backup guard.... that's all I really expect from the warriors.
Not gonna happen, buzz is building with every workout he does and teams find out that he can actually shoot the ball but was told not to in college. Warriors need to have a better plan than that anyways cause if they keeping steph he needs A LOT more help than their current trash roster has.
its like GSW didnt learn from drafting James Wiseman. They are better off trading for a more est veteran big man center than drafting one. GSW has a lot of demands for a center so it doesnt make sense, other than $ wise, to draft a rookie center.
He would be a perfect addition starting the beginning of games , even if they only use him like Bogut or Pachulia , he'd still be insanely productive in low mins. Only reason I dont want GSW to get him is because I was my Sixers to draft him for legit insurance behind chronically missing half the season Embiid 😂
Mr.Swish . I am wondering if we should be so worried about the Golden State warriors. 7he Warriors are a resident team and are match with their name. The will rebound . They are the Warriors!!!
Major Concern for the Warriors is the 2 spot. A player like Holiday. Who can guard 1-4 Then has a respectable jumpshot and 3. That's the primary concern. 30 .... JK Dray TJD if you want go got that one pick from Atlanta trade wigs moody and 1st round for that pick. Then choose between SARR or RISACHER.
If the Warriors can find a way to get Edey he will be a great addition. There is enough film to see if he is worth it or not unlike when they drafted Wiseman.
2:10. GSW should go contrary to the title of this video. Sam Johnson shut down Zach Edey. No NBA team nor many mainstream networks talk about Johnson. Thus, GSW have a high probability of drafting him.
I'd rather give up CP3 or Wiggins over Moody. I think Moody has great potential if he is allowed to play more minutes. He is great on hustle plays and that is something that is needed. I also don't see how Draymond is paid more than Klay Thompson either but that isn't in this video LOL. I will say when Dray was in the game he played better offensively than he had been.
If this was the early 2000 draft pick ZE would be the consensus #1 pick. To play big in today's NBA, you have to be able to guard the perimeter, and I don't see him doing that. He's a traditional tree that clogs up the center but is a potential defensive liability in today's game. That said, if he's at 52, the W's should take him, but he will probably go in the late first.
Warriors could have drafted Sengun -- who will make the All Star team in the next couple of years. Instead they drafted Moody .... a decent backup guard. Sengun went 2 picks later...
I'd take him but... I want a big with hops. We need a shot blocker and rebounder. Think Nic Claxton, Dereck Lively. We need fast, tall guys. We need about 3 or 4 6"9"-7' guys. Bulldogs in the paint. I'd take Valenciunas too.
Warriors pick after the Kings and there’s a good possibility the Kings will take him if they don’t move the pick. Zach was in Sacramento for a workout. Btw Draymond Green is NOT a TV analyst.
Too slow. They cooked Gobert time and time again during the playoffs and he's so much better defensively than him. it doesn't matter if you score 20 if you give up 30.
If they managed to play an undersized center that had no offensive threat and wasn't known for as a defensive presence both in the perimeter and paint, they can manage with this.
Warriors is a win now team so i dont think drafting Edey was the right thing to do. It would have been betetr if Edey land on a team that would build around him.Although, Warriors has a lot of shooters which would benefit Edey if the offense was build around him like in Purdue.
GSW strategy building future talent is not going to help Steph won 1or 2 more rings unless Lacob gave up on that hope. Time to abandon the death squad line up and get Steph the right players coz other teams are full of big agile players that can dominate and expose GSW lack of size. Bob Myers just got lucky and never had another Steph,Klay and Dray and most of the rookies they had after that are just average.
I watch the National Championship game and Zazh went missing mid way through the first until almost halfway through the second. There was zero scoring from anyone else during that stretch and Zach couldn't buy a bucket, missing many close range shots. One can attribute being tired but on that stage, it's just an excuse. I like Zach so don't think I'm throwing shade. Just what I recall from the game. Would love him on the Dubs for sure!
He was literally the only scoring option and yes, he missed 6 in a row after that 30 second break. It's still one game where he had 37, so if that's a bad game, I'm not too worried. he's 62% from the field, averaging 25. Timmy D averaged only 21ppg on 62% as well his Sr. yr
@SwishCulture correct, he was the only scoring option which added that much more pressure on Zach, but it also made game planning against Purdue easier. Had they a other scorer or someone to truly rake the scoring pressure off Zach we may be having a different conversation. Regardless, if the Dubs can get him it would be fantastic
@@swamisingalingam9622 That’s exactly my point. We’d have to give up valuable assets in either Kuminga, Moody, Podz, or Wiggins to move up. That would cripple us. Zach Edey isn’t worth all that
76ers do not want moses moody. They actually want a backup center so you are wrong in your video on them not wanting a center. However, the 76ers are most likely going to use this years draft pick and package it alongside with other picks for a star. Only thing the 76ers will get from GSW is free agent Kevon Looney.
As A FAN, I'm only interested in seeing Steph, JK, Moody, Podz, TJD, Lester Q, and Gui Santos along with GP2 as well. Trade the rest for Zach Ebey. I know I'm probably alone on this. Dray, Klay, and the way Wiggs (great talent) is playing are not doin' it for me.
@@anthonyb.7340 It's so hard to let go of the former glory of the "old guard!!" It was so painful last season and I think probably suffered seeing it! Got to move on! It's a spiritual principle. And Yes! Loose those killers!! 😅
@@jaymac4448 I think it's mental for him. He's really great when he's motivated, but so often last season it looked like he was just trying to not make mistakes - no real fire. But still, as you say a good defender. 👍
@@konga1653 I believe that as well. It kinda was a thing with the whole team. Like they knew they couldn't win because of the way the game was being called. Then when the league switched things after all-star break they almost make the playoffs.
Warriors have only had like 1 real bust over the last like 10 picks, unless you’re tryna count 2nd round picks as busts^ if warriors didn’t draft wiseman people wouldn’t have the narrative warriors can’t draft 😂
@@SwishCulture I’m talking about the warriors, they don’t like bigs. Look at their free agency and draft history. They don’t draft or sign big guys to play in their system
@@SwishCulture no, i dont trust them. they traded Wiseman and a draft pick to get a 6'2" role player in Gary Peyton II. Im not saying that Wiseman was good but you replace him with a guy thats almost a foot shorter and your team is already small.make it make sense
I think Golden State should make a trade with the 76ers to move up in the draft and maybe get Zacky or to get another big man but they do need size so maybe this would be good idea but what about Klay Thompson being traded to the 76ers and we get two pics back Plus cash considerations moving queer Thompson would be much more battle. I feel like then movie losing Moses Moody.
Edey is slow as molasses, isn’t athletic at all, will be a terrible defender because of those two things and he can’t shoot. Not a good recipe for a center in 2024. I like DaRon holmes better for this day and age
@@SwishCulturethe warriors are in what you call winning purgatory. Ain’t nobody finna trade that high pick to the warriors just give that one up buddy. I love my team but it ain’t happening that way.
KAI SOTTO IS 3 TIMES BETTER THAN EDEY IF U WATCH THEIR PLAY AND HIGHLIGHTS U CAN SEE KAI SOTTO BEAT EDEY IN ANY SKILL IN THE BASKETBALL PLUS KAI SOTTO PLAY IN PRO LEAGUE WHILE EDEY PLAY ONLY IN THE COLLEGE LEAGUE SEE THE DIFFERENCE KAI SOTTO IS READY TO DOMINATE THE NBA REAL SOON U WILL SEE KAI SOTTO IS NOT KID ANYMORE AND HE IS THE PRIME RIGHT NOW AND READY TO BEAT ANY NBA CENTER TODAYS..EDEY IS GOOD CENTER BUT HE IS NOT FIT TO GSW BECAUSE HE IS SLOW KAI SOTTO IS MUCH FIT TO GSW BECAUSE HE IS 3 TIMES FASTER THAN ANY CENTER TODAY IN THE NBA RIGHT NOW IN HEIGHT OF 7'3 KAI SOTTO IS BEST CENTER TO PICK REAL TALK!!!
If they don't get rid of Green, their gonna lose a lot of young talent, especially looking at the way they did Poole. Green is stain on the Warriors. Keeping him is gonnna be their downfall.
Actually, he is the best. Not the best prospect, but the best player right now. Leading a team to the NCAA championship is no easy feat. Gotta give that kid some respect.
Larry Riley got demoted DESPITE drafting all the Warriors stars. Warriors passed on Sengun to draft a backup guard.... that's all I really expect from the warriors.
Jerry west was the reason for drafting klay/dray and larry riley missed every single pick that he made besides picking curry(that was an obvious pick at that spot)before west/myers got there. But myers drafted moody chief. Dunleavy had a great first draft with Podz at 19 and TJD at 57. These are new times
