Yeah I know.. this was the ideal draft to get a scorer. Our only hope is to trade for one, but not sure how you get one here now.Only one thing matters: We The Champs.

he compared him to Bosh in Heat being 3rd banana. "He doesn't care about being best player he wants to win" oh man he raves about him because he's not Raptors fan. He couldn't care less where he ends up eventually.

Suggs wasn't that either. Green is the ideal scorer Raptors needed. Suggs, while is better than Barnes, also needs to improve his shot.

I think Suggs had the ability to become a good scorer.. basically a decent Lowry replacement. A guard that can create his own shot and for others.

I think Barnes can be more of an OG than a Siakam... he just has to develop his shot. Barnes has good ball handling skills and can pass, but he can't create for himself. I don't think that's something he can just develop easily. Pascal had that skill in college before he became really good at it in his second year.
Barnes is apparently a gym rat.. so let's hope we can get him to shoot a sh!t ton of shots in practice so he has no fear with it like OG.

If Barnes develops a shot, he'll be legit. He has better handles and playmaking skills than OG. I doubt he'll ever be a scorer capable of pulling up for off dribble shots, fadeaways and so on, but if he is able to hit the 3, and use his ball handling to score inside, he'll be fine.
I'm curious though if his ball handling and playmaking is good enough, if he'll be able to play PG long term with OG at SF, Pascal at PF and a stretch Center.
