There was an apparent mix up at the NBA Combine this week for Michael Kidd-Gilchrist.
He wasn’t there when he was supposed to be.
It wasn’t hard to figure out where he was though.

Kidd-Gilchrist was supposed to work out with the small forwards at the combine, but there was a mix-up that made him believe he was working with the power forwards. Either way, the 6-foot-7 1/2, 233-pounder confirmed everything [URL=”http://www.sfgate.com/sports/warriors/”]the Warriors[/URL] already thought about him.[/FONT][/COLOR]

He’s a gym rat – the tough, defense-first player who possesses every intangible of a winner. If the Warriors can’t trade the No. 7 and 35 picks for a proven upgrade at small forward, the franchise would love to move into the top four – where it could nab Kidd-Gilchrist.[/FONT][/COLOR][/LEFT]

My guess is a whole lot of teams would love to trade up to get Michael, and I am sure he wouldn’t mind a team that has a chance to win sooner rather than later would.
