I was torn between Barnes and Drummond when both fell to #7. Like you, I felt Barnes filled a more immediate need, and had a lower bust potential, but Drummond had the higher ceiling and potential greater long-term worth. Given the configuration of the team, Barnes made more sense.

Really stoked about Dubs season. My only wince right now is the outlook on the Barnes over Drummond - Bub Rub Nubs Dah Dubs 2013-01-02 11:53:56 (114 views)

Would you take a healthy bogut/barnes over Drummond? 100% Bogut makes your wince go away. - Desperado 2013-01-02 12:18:29 (35 views)

Yeah, if Bogut can stay healthy and play 30 plus, it would've been a logjam with him and Drummond. - Bub Rub Nubs Dah Dubs 2013-01-02 12:54:35 (30 views)

Logjam or not, even you think Drummond will be a game changing big man, you take him - JamesKrygan 2013-01-02 12:58:45 (34 views)

Exactly. That's what I'm saying. - Bub Rub Nubs Dah Dubs 2013-01-02 13:20:02 (18 views)

I would've taken Drummond, but I wasn't mad at the pick. Who'd be playing SF if we didn't have Barne - JamesKrygan 2013-01-02 12:13:38 (29 views)

Still have D Wright and Jarret Jack never traded here. - The Golden One 2013-01-02 12:25:07 (27 views)

I would've still made that Jack trade any day. And that's not hindsight - JamesKrygan 2013-01-02 12:28:03 (31 views)

I would have too, But don't think warriors try to push DW out without Barnes. Remember that - The Golden One 2013-01-02 12:46:45 (32 views)

Or maybe they still trade Wright for Jack and just plan on starting Rush - JamesKrygan 2013-01-02 12:55:42 (26 views)

Good point there. Jack has been huge and Barnes pick did make Wright trade more necessary. - Bub Rub Nubs Dah Dubs 2013-01-02 12:53:28 (20 views)

Draymond and Quincy Miller, who's buried in Denver, but has looked very promising in 3 D-League game - Bub Rub Nubs Dah Dubs 2013-01-02 12:24:30 (35 views)

If I remember correctly the Dubs brought Miller in for a workout? Don't know anything about him - JamesKrygan 2013-01-02 12:29:44 (25 views)

Yeah, Drummond has blown away expectations. Crazy how a guy can go from inconsistent in college to - Bub Rub Nubs Dah Dubs 2013-01-02 12:11:53 (63 views)
