2012 Draft Thursday, June 28th: Raptors select Terence Ross

[KingMaxwell47]

Who would have guessed T. Jones went after White?

[Blacklash2k4]

Okay Royce White is off the board :/

[CalgaryRapsFan]

I feel sick tonight.

The only thing giving me comfort is how last year's pick turned out despite numerous negative outcries initially.

Unfortunately, last year I was ecstatic. This year I'm not.

I was one of a few guys that was thrilled with Valanciunas immediately... I am not thrilled with this year's surprise pick.

[Red and White]

There's got to be something in the works here. It just feels weird that BC and Co. would reach this deep. He could've easily traded down. Really weird.

Yeah it just does not seem right. No way does anyone let pass Drummond just to reach for a guy who may not even fill a need at SF with his size.

[Nilanka]

I don't expect anything to be in the works. Just like the trade deadline. All hype, no substance.

[pillowmint]

I can't even write anything right now I'm still so stunned and confused by this pick...AHHHHHHHHHHHH. This is the life we chose, being Raps fans.

[AJ360]

I just want to see BCs interview when he justifies err....discusses his reasons for this pick

[MangoKid]

Ross will probably be a awesome 'glue' guy but if he's an SG and we are keeping him according to ESPN insider maybe DeMar trade is in the works?

we still have a gaping hole at SF -- maybe we can somehow get Nash and Kirlenko (if Gay/Igoudala isn't happening)

This organization can't afford to take 'glue guys' in the lottery. It;s not to meant to be a slight against you in no way, connected, so please don't take it as such.

How was the mood at st louis?

[DaveKim]

Lol. Terrance Ross at 27. Damn. I can only hope that he turns out better than Dion waiters making the cavs having the worst pick in the lotteyr this year

[Nilanka]

Ross is as skinny as Rivers. I can't see him playing SF yet.

[RaptorsFan4Life]

76ers and the Rockets always have the best draft picks.

[ReubenJRD]

Ross is 6'7", so I'm sure he could play SF. Or DeRozan could. Or Rudy Gay could.

Initially drafting him would have him play the small forward. He's versatile, can play both wing positions because of height and game. Just needs to get stronger like Derozan.

[MangoKid]

Hmmmm....Harkless. Good pick. When it's time for Iguodala to depart, Harkless will be ready.
