But my feeling right now is more hopeful skepticism.

Obviously Barnes is talented. I just have a hard time getting excited about him given how underwhelming he was in college.

And yes, I would have rather taken Drummond at 7. I'm going to stick to that.

Dude, you guys got Harrison Barnes with the 7th pick. IMO, his basement is as a solid player, which is commensurate with the 7th pick. Even in the worst case scenario for him, barring injury of course, this was a good pick. That's WORST case scenario, IMO.

I didn't root for losses and they still got the pick. win-win for me nancy

Oh please. You flat out advocated them trying to win, and got upset at anyone for implying that it would be better for the franchise if they didn't, and those people were 100% correct, Florence.

You are wrong just about every year in the draft so I think the Warriors hit a HR. LOL J/K with you Crazy

My track record on predictions hasn't been great lately, but that won't stop me from making them lol

I just feel that anyone expecting Harrison Barnes to be a star player will be disappointed.

He's a safe pick though. Probably a 15 point - 5 rebound kind of guy

LOL at some of you guys talking out of your ass about Sullinger. I'm an OSU fan as you know and have seen Sully play IN PERSON multiple times. Dude is a baller. If he came out last year, he was likely a top 3 pick. Health concerns and a young team much different than the 2010-2011 one changed his role on the team. Sully was not the reason we lost a single game last year... he was the reason we won most of them.

At 30 he is a STEAL.
