While he presently has no official job title, Weems will be working in player development as a skills coach. One thing he expects to do is work with players headed to the team's new D-League franchise -- the Dakota Wizards. He'll accompany players and work with them while integrating them into the system.

"I will be sitting behind the bench, rather than on it," Weems said. "I'll be in a suit, but I won't be yelling at the refs!"

Golden State was in such buyer’s mode Thursday that the $2 million sent to the Bobcats for Tyler as the No. 39 pick was actually the fallback. The Warriors, Lacob said, had tried to get another pick in the second half of the first round, likely at the going-rate cost of $3 million, which would have meant a second guaranteed contract after drafting Klay Thompson at 11. Nothing materialized, Lacob told NBA.com, because potential trade partners wanted players in return, not money.

"We would have done that as well if we felt that we could get a player wanted," Lacob said of spending the $3 million. "Look, we’re not here to screw around. We’re here to make this team better, any way we can, whether it be the new medical doctors, training staff, coaching staff, general manager, Jerry West, dollars, players. We’re going to get there and we’re not going to stop. I’ve tried to say this over and over and over again, and people are going to start to see it here. We are going to do everything possible to give ourselves every chance to contend."

#11, that's where he got picked at so he choose it. I'm guessing.

This is a long-shot but Adrian Dantley as a assistant coach for GSW would be a good hire.

Jonathan Givony has the Warriors taking Kemba Walker with the 11th pick. Unrealistic but interesting. Kemba would be a terrific addition off the bench.

Myers said he wants Monta to stay and see what Mark Jackson can do w/ him because Ellis was never held accountable with previous coaches. I think the Warriors want a big guard in Alec Burks or Klay Thompson to come off the bench and help Curry & Ellis.

A preview of a Monta Ellis tribute video, I found.

"Joe Lacob is flying to San Antonio on Wednesday to interview Budenholzer. And if Lacob is going to the Alamo to interview him, Budenholzer is must be a serious candidate." Yes, maybe J-Ridah is right! Haha, my day just got better!

Adam Lauridsen nice piece on the warriors.
