This thread will be open the very second the pick is made Thursday night. Creating a thread announcing the pick could lead to a warning.

We are simply trying to keep the forum less cluttered on Draft night. Until this thread is open please feel free to discuss the pick here: Link

So are you happy the Raptors selected ________ ________?????

Good pick..we could also end up flipping him keep in mind..but if not obviously we had him ranked above BB and the Thompson pick was surprising.
