What's Your Gut Telling You?

Toonces settles in for 2010 NBA Draft
OK, forget about all of the hyperbole, conjecture, and theories. Step away from the mock drafts, and stop twittering for a moment. What is your gut telling you? What is the little man inside you trying to convey? You have to listen to the little man!
For this exercise, just go with your instinct. Close your eyes, shut off all outside influences, and let the first five picks just flow out of your pores. I tried it, and for no rhyme or reason, I came up with this:
1. Wall
2. Turner
3. Johnson
4. Cousins
5. Favors
Understand, this is the gut of a 51-year-old Caucasian male - slightly short for his weight and increasingly irritable - talking. It lacks the expertise of Chad Ford, and it is not plugged in like Woj or Mannix or Thomsen or even Ziller. These picks are the bi-product of 51 years of bad dietary practices, and that should be factored when giving these picks (any) credence.
So, that said, what is your gut telling you? The thread awaits.

Right now the only way I see Cousins not being picked by the Kings is if a) Favors is around (unlikely) or b) Philly takes Cousins with the 2nd pick
Is that likely?

Or let me put it this way
The worst case scenario for me is of the big 5 (if you wanna call them that), is that Evan Turner is the remaining of the 5 to be picked. IMO, he’s going to be the worst pro out of Wall, Johnson, Favors & Cousins. All have much better physical profiles that give them greater odds to succeed.

My gut hopes for Cousins, but it has no clue what will happen tomorrow. My gut, like the rest of me, is a Kings fan. So my gut is preparing to be upset with how tomorrow goes.

I think despite all the speculation, the draft will pretty much go exactly as it was thought to right after the lottery happened, at least regarding the top 5.

Can't think of a draft where there wasn't some surprise
1. Wall
2. Turner
3. Favors
4. Cousins
5. Monroe
My gut agrees with this.
I have a cynical gut.
by caseycheesecake on Jun 23, 2010 10:06 PM PDT up reply actions
Agree
There is usually always a player who was expected to go in the top 5 that ends up droping to everyones surprise. I believe that it’s wesley johnson. Wesley said he expects to go to the Nets or wolves, he might of jinxed himself.
I think Favors is that guy...
I think the top five will all be drafted within the first five picks, but I think Favors could fall to 4 or 5. That is the only real surprise I see in the top five. Before the lottery people were sure Favors would go at two or three. Wesley Johnson wasn’t even really mentioned consistently before the lottery as being a top five guy.
I think we’ll all be surprised at what order the top five goes in though.
16 hours to go. Not sure if I am going to be able to get any good sleep tonight.
Yah and last year we were the surprise.
Everyone had us taking the overhyped prettyboy and we snatched up some guy named ROY.

gut is telling me that kahn takes cousins as well
trying to prepare for monroe tomorrow.
there are always surprises on draft day..
I (I mean my big ol' gut) actually agree
Kahn seems to want to get rid of Jefferson and his big contract and it seems to me that Cousins who is a 5 could be a good fit next to Love who is a 4. Or is Love actually a 5? I know the knock was that both Jefferson and Love were undersized last year to play the 5. If that happens and Johnson is gone at 3, then Favors goes to us.
Let us all make a pact to go 180 degrees on Cousins if we don't draft him
and rip his character flaws all over town this season!

Why?
Monroe will be a stud. The NBA is (historically) full of successful “non-uber-athletic” centers. Monroe has an awesome skill set.
Rebounding? Check.
Defense? Check.
Passing? Check.
Hard working (by reputation)? Check.
He’s not flashy, but he’s beyond solid.

by 27freethrows on Jun 23, 2010 10:43 PM PDT up reply actions
I don't know why
Everyone is so down on Monroe. Somehow he has been labled as being like Hawes or Miller just because he is a good passer. He has a lot of skills actually and while I realize he likes to shoot the outside shot, he also averaged almost 10 rebs last year which is way more than Hawes did in college.
I like Monroe

If the Kings draft him. The excitement will crescendo as the season starts. It always works this way.

More of this, please.
I need to believe!
I’m going to go look for Monroe highlight clips on Youtube now. Hopefully, someone has produced a highlight reel that has been masterfully edited to make him look like a stud.
Is he a good defender?
I wasn’t able to see him play this year, but got the impression from the Hawes/Miller comparisons that his defense leaves much to be desired? .
As I think there is a good chance we draft him, I would love to hear that this is incorrect.
"The Kings have nothing to lose but their games."
I just can't see it any other way...
If Johnson really does go to New Jersey, I can’t see Minny adding a third PF to a roster with only two good players, both at PF… Therefor it has to be this (in my gut, and brain)
1. Wall
2. Turner
3. Johnson
4. Cousins
5. Favors
Johnson is this year’s James Harden… not nearly as good as players taken after him (Evans, Curry, Jennings) but “fills a need”. Drafting like this to me is idiotic, but as a Kings fan I’m fine with teams doing this every year in front of us.
he's more like danny granger
good enough to start right away and be successful (albeit he will be 23 as a rookie)
by WiltonDeportes on Jun 24, 2010 3:25 AM PDT up reply actions
My gut tells me...
1. Wall
2. Turner
3. Johnson
4. Bledsoe – Kahn’s 1st round PG obsession continues.
5. Monroe – Skipping over Favors AND Cousins.
No, seriously…
1. Wall
2. Turner
3. Favors
4. Johnson
5. Cousins
Favors or Monroe ?
felt & wrote this earlier today, but I think Favors falls to #5 … Cousins is more talented today & somebody will scoop him before 5 …. Minny is schizo and can’t be counted on to keep their pick or draft Johnson …. and too many Kings fans want Cousins.
Will be choice between Favors and Monroe, and I’m not sure GP will make the right choice.
It's going to suck
Wall
Turner
Cousins
Johnson
Monroe
My gut says Cousins gone by 5th pick...
My gut also says Turner the best pro career…
Wall hits rookie wall…early…
Wes wins ROY…
Favors falls….
…and this King pick will lead to future gut-rot.
Yah, he definitely hasn't shown he is tough.
Unless you count that whole breaking vertibrae in his back and then playing less than 2 months later thing.
If I've learned anything when it comes to the draft...
it’s to expect the unexpected. In other words, I have no freaking idea. But here’s what my gut tells me anydangways:
1. Wall
2. Turner
3. Favors
4. Cousins
5. Monroe
Wall - Turner - Johnson - Favors - Cousins
On another note…who is going to the draft party? I’m considering it, but none of my friends want to go. I think it’d be kinda weird to go alone.
"You seen my cell phone?" "What’s it look like?" "Like two horses f***ing. It’s a phone, son. It looks like a phone."

Well
All I know for sure is the Kings got the shaft last year and with the worst record didn’t even get a top 3 pick… they got the worst they could get, pick number four…
…and they got the best player in the draft… a future superstar in this league… so I’m over the whole thing of feeling cursed and screwed as a 20+ year Kings fan.
There are a lot of sources saying Johnson goes to either NJ or the Wolves and therefor, the Kings will land one of two superstar potential players, Cousins or Favors. Tomorrow will be a great day for Kings fans.

I rarely go with my gut
I think with my Johnson.
And the way that has been going lately, I think Johnson will not get any top 5 action. Also, there’s often a surprise in the draft.
So then we have this:
1. Wall
2. Turner
3. Cousins
4. Favors
5. Monroe

1)

Possibly
I’d definitely prefer if this is the way things did work out.
But we do know that the Pistons really want Cousins, and they went so far as to hold private workouts for him a couple of days ago, (which is weird since no one projects Cuz to fall to 7).
And we also have a pretty good idea that Minnesota isn’t getting the player they supposedly wanted in Wesley Johnson; they already have Al Jefferson and Kevin Love but could use a wing player; and they worked out Luke Babbitt on Tuesday. Taking Babbitt at 4 would be a bit of a reach, right?
Anyway, I just wanted to make a ridiculously bold prediction, but it is more or less anchored in actual possibility.

My Gut says do some excercise, my fiance agrees.
1.Wall
2. Turner
3. Favors
4. Cousins
5. Monroe..a future 6 time all-star
While I will be upset at the chance of not getting Cousins, I will be happy withthe versatility of Monroe. IMHO he is mature and will become an above average defender and rebounder in the NBA, while displaying a good all around offensive game.
No matter what, my Gut will love this future King as much as it likes great wine, good beer, fried food, big juicy steaks and everything that makes it what it is, big and round!

And if he’s gone by then, it will be Greg Monroe.

My gut says...
“Thank you for not getting emotionally invested in this year’s draft so that we don’t have a repeat of last year’s primal scream followed by too much Ben & Jerry’s and barbecue potato chips. Your plan for a nice evening with microwave popcorn and diet A&W rootbeer sounds lovely!”

You spent your evening eating Ben & Jerrys & BBQ Chips......
Man, ladies do really vent differently.

No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
I wasn't venting.
I was mourning.

I have a lot of gut to go by, and it says:
1) Wall
2) Turner
3) Cousins
4) Favors
5) Johnson
Bonus Gut Grumbles:
- I don’t think the 1-5 drafting teams as they stand as of 8:25 am PT will hold by the time the draft is underway.
- We are going to regret not getting Cousins
- We’re looking at another sub-30-win season
My gut is fighting with my brain
I think it will go down like this:
1. Wall
2. Turner
3. Johnson
4. Cousins
5. Favors
Kings rule! (They are royalty - right?)
I am having the same problem as you, Dalt - my gut is fighting with my brain.
My gut is mixed with a lot of fear that Cousins will be taken before the five, but then there is an element of hope that all the stars will align and destiny will see Cousins at the five and he will be a King before the day is out. So here is my hopeful gut:
1) Wall
2) Favors
3) Turner
4) Johnson
5) Cousins

1- Wall
2- Johnson
3- Cousins
4- Favors
5- Turner
Yes i just did that.

Dude your gut is totally jacking you!!
That was my gut talking. I don’t even know what “jacking you” means.
remind her...
Can someone be sure to remind Ailene Voisin that the Kings won’t be drafting Ricky Rubio?
