Not sure if posted or even true

An agreement in principle on a deal that would send point guard Kyle Lowry from the Toronto Raptors to the Miami Heat is "imminent," a league source with direct knowledge of the negotiations said Friday.

Kawhi, Paul George, Wilson Chandler, Giannis... all these players wont be mentioned again in the trade thread because of Bruno. Heck ppl wont even clamour for wiggins because Bruno will turn into a dominant player

I'm not mad anymore. 6'9 200 7'6 wingspan at 18 and actually is more of a wing player than a tweener. I'm not madd at that.

Groom / Develop / Boost the hell outta him.

Batum / Kawhi / Durant - Just fall around there lol(easier said then done) He's built well tho.

ESPN NBA insider Chad Ford hates the Toronto Raptors 2014 NBA draft picks. He gave Masai Ujiri and the Toronto Raptors a D.

http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/draft2014/story/_/id/11139035/2014-nba-draft-grades-every-team

Can't say I disagree with his assessment. Especially the last part. Where does this put us 2 years from now? I don't see any of the picks being key contributors.

If Masai's plan actually worked (Ennis & Bruno), it would have been a lot easier to swallow.

I like this Bruno kid. At 20 though? I was expecting a more finished product. I have no idea how Masai will improve this team for the 2014-2015 season. If he doesn't re-sign Kyle, GV & Pat......then we are going to take a big step back.

I hope we can keep this kid in Canada & train the sh*t out of him. The really need to accelerate his development. The good news is that he probably won't have the same type of commitment problems that guys like JV do with their offseason.

I think Masai should get Bruno in the practice facility and create a sizzle reel video to show before Bruno talks to the media. People need to see Bruno in action to get excited.

Does anyone in Raps organization speak Portugese?

I wonder what makes a guy like Dante Exum that much better of a prospect then Bruno. It's not like Exum has been playing top level competition and he's kind of an unknown too. I have a feeling that if Bruno was well scouted he could of got picked higher but nobody really knew about him. Exum's a bigger name because he shares the same agent as kobe and his father was an NBA player. Nobody really know's if Exum is really legit since he been hiding for a while. I wouldn't be surprised if we look back someday and Bruno ends up being a better prospect then Exum.

Caboclo means Brazilian Indigenous. Coppery skin. Mulato coppery color.

and Mulato means "Crossing the white race with the black race", black people with white people results in Mulato.

Taken from this full game.

Agreed on the move at 2:43. Decent quickness and footwork to attack closeouts.

He also shows good vision and unselfishness at various points in this video:

0:42, a drive off a curl and finds the open 3PT shooter on the opposite wing.

1:16, finds the shooter on the wing after a few dribbles. Also good is that he immediately goes to crash the boards. Ends up getting the board and the putback.

1:51, on the fastbreak, makes the forward pass to the open man ahead of him and closer to the basket.

2:14, drives past his (smaller) man and attempts to make a pass to a big under the rim. Good idea, poor execution. But the instincts are there.

3:33, passes to the open man in the corner after his defender sags off too much. This is created by stupid defense by the defender, but this shows that he can see the floor.

3:40, 3:51, 4:02 are the same, attempts to drive and dish to the open man. Execution lacking but the idea is there.

Not really a fan of how he often prefers to go for the finesse finish, but maybe that's due to strength. He's gotta go up strong off those offensive rebounds.

man you told one very important thing: "But the instincts are there.", instincts is the word, the guy have the tools to be a great player, Raptors have the tools to teach him? let's wait to see.

Do you like the pick?
