2012/13 Toronto Raptors Draft Thread *Poll Edited*

[TheFreshPrince]

I'm so out of the loop this year

[God Squad]

I agree, I haven't watched much ncaa this year. I'm sure it'll change once march madness rolls around.

How about Mouhammadou Jaiteh, France big man, is built like a man child at 18 yrs of age. Apparently, he's one of the more impressive big man prospects to ever come out of France. And according to DX, he could be in the 2013 draft, and skyrocket up the draft boards if he has a good showing in the Nike Hoops Summit, a la Biyombo. But, it appears he has more offensive upside than Biyombo did/does.

For some reason, I'm intrigued.

According to what Jaiteh and his agents have told us, and despite being the same age as most high school seniors in the US, he plans on entering his name in the 2013 Draft and would like to come over to the NBA “as quickly as possible� in his words. Because he turns 19 in the calendar year of the draft (November 27th) he is eligible to do so if he chooses. A handful of NBA teams have already been out to see him in France, and he is reportedly on the shortlist of potential candidates to be invited to the Nike Hoop Summit in April.

Myck Kobongo would be nice in the second round.

I wouldn't mind stashing him away for a year or two if he didn't come over right away

Anyone else think the whole "extremely weak draft" thing being overblown? I personally see at list 6-7 prospects I want on the raptors now.. & keep in mind I haven't seen to much ncaa this year.

No superstar but there's potential all stars, so its not extremely weak imo. Who are your 7 prospects?

Otto Porter, is my early fave. The kid has the it factor to combine with superior physical gifts and nose for the ball.
He'll make a positive impact on both ends every play.

Reminds me so much tayshaun Prince.

His weakness from deep is gone as evidenced by improving his 3fg% from 22 to 42%

Am I missing something with Doug McDermott? He seems like someone we should snag with that second rounder. What separates him from a prospect like Mirotic? Currently rocking a 35 PER, high motor, smart as a whip and can shoot the lights out.

He seems like he's going to be one of those smart role players in the NBA. I can see him in a James Jones or Steve Novak role.

For some reason, he looks more like Donyell Marshall to me, but I only watched his highlights.

In no order.. But I think I like Ben Mclemore.

Shabazz Muhammad
Nerlens Noel
Ben McLemore
Anthony Bennett
Alex Poythress (kinda)
Archie Goodwin
Trey Burke

LeBryan Nash is letting me down. But he has crazy physical tools.

[DarrylFlicking]

C.J. Leslie or Trey Burke please.
