OT: The Official Toronto Raptors Thread

I think there is a decent chance Evan Mobley falls to us.

Detroit isnt taking him and if Houston Passes then i dont think Cleveland takes him with Allen in the middle.

If they do, Green/Suggs is a fun debate, but i think it's also possible they move the pick for an All Star caliber talent and run it back with Kyle

I think the run is over , take the kid to reboot

Doubt your getting a stud all star that moves the needle for us

A rookie ELC contract is gold for 4 years , too valuable to trade

The great thing is team has solid veteran leadership and player won’t need to come in be a saviour right away

Team is legit that just had a shit ton of back luck this year

Rookie can blend in and develop properly
 
Another wildcard possibility


3. Scottie Barnes, SF, Florida State, Freshman

I’m really surprised Barnes isn’t getting more buzz. He could easily end up as the best player in this draft and has a case for being the top pick.

Again, the search for big wings comes first at the NBA level, and everything comes later — and the playoffs are showing why. Barnes has weaknesses, and we’ll get to them in a minute, but there is early Spurs-era Kawhi Leonard upside here as well.

Is this like when NHL teams try to find the next Chara though?????

Much of the NBA rookie success is dependent on proper development and the right fit

Orlando can’t develop shit after a decade in the lottery , same as the Pistons

Raps have the perfect regime , drafting diamonds with proper development and structure
 
Lets not do the thing where we get cute and draft a guy cause we dont like the position where whats left for us in the big 4 plays.

Also, Lowry for Simmons in a sign and trade, and drafting Green/Suggs is a brilliant looking offseason

FVV/Flynn/Watson
Green/Suggs/Harris
OG/something
Simmons/Boucher
Siakam/Birch

Sounds like you want to turn the raps into the leafs and have the bitchiest bitches who ever bitched as the 4 and 5?

packaging Hood/Baynes for another asset is obvious too

Im really keen on Myles Turner but not with Simmons
 
We can trade down for that second tier of player if need be

Top 4 are are legit star caliber starters

I’m just throwing out some alt names that are on the radar. We all know the 4 popular choices.
I have no preference —- in Ujiri/Webster I trust.
Thrilled we moved up and not down.
