Wiggins is still #1 for most people, so regardless of where the Raps pick, their big board should read #1 - Wiggins. I'm not sold on Parker but he has looked the most polished, but that doesn't mean he will be the better NBA player. People are over-thinking this way too much.Heir, Prince of Cambridge
If you see KeonClark in the wasteland, please share your food and water with him.

If Wiggins wasn't a Canadian then I wouldn't have a problem with the Raptors grabbing the first overall pick but because he is (and also from Toronto) then I fear other factors could be at play here which could hinder an objective selection of the first overall pick in this case.
Politics played a role in the Raptors selecting Bargnani first overall as well.
If he starts playing like he did last night consistently, then that is likely going to happen.

Zach LaVine at #5 in 2014.
I'm not surprised. I have serious emotions about that kid. lol
This draft is stupid talented.
Shabazz Napier has played his way into the 1st round too. Clutch daggers from the UConn PG. Jahii Carson slips into the 2nd round. Raps need to get a point guard in this draft and both of these guys are worth watching (assuming we don't get Smart/Exum).Heir, Prince of Cambridge

Not intending to be disrespectful to your comment/post but those are the same types of comments that were made about Drummond. I think talent triumphs at the NBA level and with the differences between college and pro game I think he will excel.
