Summary

Wes Goldberg, Warriors beat reporter for the Mercury News, opens the show addressing why so many mock drafts are wrong by saying the Warriors will draft James Wiseman.

All right, welcome with Locked-on Warriors, your daily podcast on all things, Warriors, part of the Locked-on Podcast Network.

0:17.4

I'm Wes Goldberg, Warriors beat reporter for the Mercury News.

0:20.8

You all sent in some really great questions for a post-lottery mailbag today.

0:25.7

We're going to cover a bunch of things like if the Warriors could trade for Bradley

0:29.3

Beal, options that they have with the number two pick and the possibility of trading down.

0:34.8

But first, I wanted to address the James Wiseman stuff.

0:37.1

I'm starting to get this

0:38.0

reputation as being this anti-James Wiseman guy, and I'm not. Look, every mock draft seems to have

0:45.4

the Warriors taking him at number two, but my intel from people I talk to is that the Warriors aren't

0:50.2

high on Wiseman. That's all this is. I reported last week that the Warriors are much

0:54.4

higher in this class's guards and wings than they are on this class's centers. And I still

1:23.2

you know what, screw it. I'm leaving the NCAA. He stood up against the hypocrisy of the of NCAA basketball,

1:30.6

left the program. I have no problem with that. I'm not like this anti-all. He doesn't have like the

1:34.8

competitive drive. He's not for his team. I'm not, I'm not that guy. Okay, I'm not old school like

1:39.9

that. I'm not anti-wiseman in any way. I like his upside. All right? I think that if he's in the

1:47.5

right situation, then he could be a good player. I just don't think that his upside is Chris Bosch or

1:53.9

Kevin Garnett. I mean, I don't know where these comparisons come from. All right, it's not enough

1:59.6

to just shoot threes on a few youtube clips all right his
