So what do LeBron, Wade, Paul, Duncan, Kobe, Durant, Howard and our own Anthony Randolph have in common? Well, according to the Sports Guy, they are the 8 guys you drop everything for and go watch in person if they are in your town.
Wow, that's quite exclusive territory. Simmons says he will explain later why Randolph is in that group, but I think we all know why.

Warrior Draft History (We Traded Payton for Lister?!?!?)
Hey guys, came across this great link in Sports Guy's chat the other day. It lists every NBA transaction EVER! You can do a search on the Warriors and find all the trades, pickups, drops in their storied history. One trade I couldn't believe was in 1989 we traded the rights to Dana Barros (#16) to Seattle for their #1 in 1990 (which ended up being Gary Payton). But 2 months later, we traded that pick back to Seattle for Alton Lister. Now maybe the pick was Lottery Protected, but if it wasn't, what a bonehead move that was. Hopefully Mully and company won't repeat that kind of mistake today.

Mock Lottery Up at ESPN-Dubs Get Yi!
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/index
Yes its time to look forward to the lottery now and ESPN.COM helps us out with their Lottery Generator. I just did it about 20 times and no matter how you slice it, the Warriors, who right now have a 1.7% chance to win the lottery, always ended up with the 9-10 pick and Chad Ford had them taking Yi. This is what he said about Yi in his blog.
* China's Yi Jianlian continues to dominate in the Chinese Basketball Association playoffs.Last week he scored 38 points and grabbed 10 rebounds against Shanghai in the first game of the playoff series. He followed up with a 20-point, 15-rebound peformance in Game 2. Then Yi helped Guangdong clinch the series with 32 points and 17 rebounds on an amazing 14-for-19 shooting performance from the field.
Lots of teams are interested in him, but watch the Warriors closely. Don Nelson loves Chinese players, and Yi has a game reminscent of Dirk Nowitzki. Plus, he'd be a huge draw for the Bay Area's large Asian population. He remains our top-rated international prospect, currently sitting at No. 10 on our Big Board.
