    Seems like a lot of people think this indicates that Sac is leaning toward Monroe or an SF over Cousins. I'm skeptical of that though.

    I honestly don't think it matters too much. Mathematically, we are guaranteed one of the following:

    1.Wall
    2.Johnson
    3.Turner
    4.Favors
    5.Cousins
    6.Monroe
    7.Aminu

    And honestly, any of those players will be a welcome addition to this team. In previous years I was very interested to see if a particular player would "fall" or land in the Warriors wheelhouse, but this year it doesn't really matter to me. If Cousins is there, awesome. If not, Monroe will be a very intriguing prospect with his size and skills and "lefty" game. What if Wes Johnson were to somehow fall? That would be fantastic. Or if Monroe is there, but GS takes Aminu? That's fine by me. He is explosive and athletic and will pair nicely with a fast-break oriented team, IMO.

    Now, if GS gets to their #6 pick and takes someone who belongs in the 2nd round, then we'll have a problem.
