Ten Years From Now...

[Superchunk]

Just a thread for fun.

Even though it's been a turbulent season, I really like the mix of personalities that the 2012-13 Raptors have. Where will they be in ten years?

In 2023, which of the current Raptors do you think is most likely to be:

- On an NBA coaching staff John Lucas
- A fan-favourite on a team in Europe Acy
- Doing colour commentary for NBC Fields
- Still playing for the Raptors Jonas
- Working in a non-playing role within the Raptors organization Amir
- A starter on an NBA team other than the Raptors Ross
- A successful businessman Jose
- In prison Kleiza
- Living in a van down by the river

Nice!

Interesting to look at who was on the team in 2002-03: (from basketball-reference.com)

Robert Archibald
Mengke Bateer
Lonny Baxter
Corie Blount
Chris Bosh
Michael Bradley
Rick Brunson
Vince Carter
Michael Curry
Antonio Davis
Dion Glover
Chris Jefferies
Donyell Marshall
Roger Mason
Jerome Moiso
Lamond Murray
Milt Palacio
Jannero Pargo
Morris Peterson
Jalen Rose
Rod Strickland
Alvin Williams
Jerome Williams

Quite a list...I remember most of them but...who was Jerome Moiso? Dion Glover?

On an NBA coaching staff: Calderon
A fan-favourite on a team in Europe: Kleiza
Doing colour commentary: Fields
Still playing for the Raptors: Valanciunas
Working in a non-playing role within the Raptors organization: Calderon (PG coach)

[white men can't jump]

- On an NBA coaching staff : John Lucas III
- A fan-favourite on a team in Europe: Andrea Bargnani
- Doing colour commentary for NBC: Landry Fields...this should just be colour commentary in general. Hasn't it been like 15 years since NBC broadcast NBA. You mean ABC?
- Still playing for the Raptors: Jonas
- Working in a non-playing role within the Raptors organization: Can I put Magloire here? Hmm....I'll say Jose. Maybe as an ambassador type role, or as a scout over in Spain for them. Or JL3 will be on their coaching staff.
- A starter on an NBA team other than the Raptors: Split between Demar and Ross. Even if they can play together, hard to imagine it happening for 10 years.
- A successful businessman: Aaron Gray...I don't know why. Maybe his lack of talent and ability to carve out a niche make me think he'll also make the most of his money.
- In prison: Nobody...Quincy Acy for assaulting someone on the bball court. (really can't see actual crap happening with these guys unless one gets a DUI or something)
-Living in a van down by the river: Also nobody....Rasual Butler from last year.
