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

[draftedraptor]

Personally I would rather see us ppick somebody with elite potential rather than trading for mediocre players.

[Darien]

Im liking PJ3. Freak athlete with enormous length, NBA body and quickness at the 3 who can hit a midrange shot. Smells like Kawhi Leonard who is tearing it up for the Spurs.

Oh wait, wrong year.

What happens when the other team goes small?

Do you see Drummond or Biyombo being effective guarding a PF like Millsap, Josh Smith, Bargnani, Dirk, etc. to name a few?

biyombo might have a better chance at that then drummond but those are hard covers for anyone. and of course those won't be the only 2 bigs the team employs.

Raptors: Need someone who can get to basket … Waiters, Lamb, Ross, Lillard seem to be the targets

I think anyone who can shoot outside 15 feet will be a tough cover for the two.

I see Robinson before Drummond.

BC's take on evening's events.

[ceez]

BC sounded like he sure plans on moving the pick from that presser dealie :/

[c_bcm]

I'm pretty high on White, but not at 8. We could trade down to get him. With #8 I would take Kendall Marshall and move Bayless to the 2 and have them both control the second unit. This makes a lot of sense to me.

I'm really liking Jeremy Lamb at this point, Rivers is there, and Perry Jones is on the back of my mind.

[blackjitsu]

End of season presser (which is available online) all we heard was shooters, but Chad says we need slashers. I don't doubt him but I think it's misdirection from the Raps. My list includes Lamb, PJ3, moving up for Barnes, or trade back in the draft.

Interesting that BC wants to "tweak the process" to discourage tanking.

PJ3 him and DeMar would gel well. He has a nice stroke that will only improve and he is a monster athlete

[Hotshot]

Here is what I don't want: The Best available player or a safe pick like Derozan and Ed Davis.

I want to take a big gamble on a player.

Go big or go home!!
