I can't wait for all the media questions talking about hockey.

"Since you like hockey do you think you will go to Leafs games when you get drafted?"

"Does that mean you like the cold?"

Kyle Anderson's Twitter is giving me flashbacks to Andrew Bynum's Myspace.

I guess that is evidence that it shouldn't matter, but Jesus Christ kid, STFU.

Referring to their 1st rounder at #21.

Cmon Raps, steal him away!

Could also be Porzingis' agent trying to fish for a first round bite to prevent withdrawing.

If that's true, my interest in him just got much higher. Prestie knows how to find talent.

There's also word that he'd be a likely lottery pick if he came over next year, so it sounds like he'd be a great get at #20.

Payton's lower base is really awkward when he shoots with his leg going inwards before he elevates. The upper portion of his jumper is fine although not ideal, but his lower base is something he has to work on. He's not going to get his shot off with that since it looks really slow. TJ Warren doesn't dip the ball for some reason when he catches and shoot.

If Kyle Anderson Slips to us, I can see Massai trading down a couple of spots to get him + maybe a 2nd rounder or 2.

Maybe Utah is looking to move up:

#20 + #59 for #23 + #35

Is Gordon Hayward a fair comparison for Kyle Anderson?

Nope. They're not similar at all. The best comparison I've heard for Anderson is Hedo Turkoglu.

Hedos short stint here really killed his reputation with Raps fans. Can't say I blame anyone he was hot trash when he signed that fat contract. But there were a few years in Orlando when he was playing with Dwight and he won MIP where he was one hell of a player. If you can get that at #20 that's a hell of a draft.

I agree, when Hedo was actually motivated, he was a darn good player. An excellent point forward. As soon as he got the big money from us, he decided to mail it in. F*ck Hedo... but Anderson has a chance to be what Hedo used to be when he was at his best, and if you get that, it's a great get at #20.

I have to admit though, Anderson's tweets in the past day have turned me off... he needs to STFU.

My #1 option is still Ennis. I hope he falls to 20... there's a good chance of it happening. Ennis is going to be really good once he develops fully. I see Tony Parker in him.

He is one of my 2 picks at 20 him #1 & Anderson #2 if Masai isn't interested the obvious thing is to draft him @ 20 and then trade him to OKC for 21 & 29 get a easy late 1st for someone Masai doesn't want. But have a feeling he is going to be a star.

Hey Slowmo better get use to supporting original six teams because when you become a Raptor, and you will become a Raptor, Amir Johnson will be taking you to some games.

Presti wants to find the next JV so badly. :laugh:

He'll soon be to international Cs what Khan was to PGs.

I agree with you on Ennis. He's athleticism is so underrated and he also has that gear shift ability like Chris Paul and Tony.
