Re: Official Raptors 2011 NBA Draft Thread, Part 5
Man im really intrigued by Sullinger...might have to drop a few pounds to play in the NBA but he seems pretty skilled early on.

Knight is dope and will probably be on par/compared to Kemba his whole career...I wonder who will be picked 1st between the two... but lets get real, they are both late lottery prospects.

Knight projects as a more athletic Deron Williams at the next level. Cavs fans can only pray we get...

I'm kinda liking Knight... never really watched him play. I can see the comparisons to Westbrook.
LOL or maybe not - that was a bad defensive play

Well, he's two years younger, and three-inches taller, so I know who I'd want.

word to the percy KFC bucket
but I just feel like if Sull went to TO he wouldn't be motivated and wouldnt be bangin it out in the gym and wirey ed davis (pf) is a better defensive prospect and big tall white italian andrea bargnani (pf) is a better offensive prospect
at least in my opinion...

yah i think I agree and its not like knight can't shoot (almost 40% 3pt in college) - so I'd take him over Kemba mainly for size/defensive purposes

Haha, and you're telling people not to listen to anyone else about Knight. Talk about hyperbole.

I'd rather have Kemba. Knight doesn't impress me.

Re: Official Raptors 2011 NBA Draft Thread, Part 5
Knight looks like a Colangelo prospect to me - highly ranked out of high school (5th overall), good character, plays with a quiet confidence a la DeMar, Andrea, and Ed, and a good athletic profile at his position with very good upside.
Looks like a future Raptor
EDIT: Plus, we were interested in two guys who profile similarly to Knight in the past (Avery Bradley, Jrue Holiday).
