thanks to the new draft odds all Raptors gotta do is be top 6 bad.....no more fighting for being the worst team in the NBA

Yeah but being the worst team guarantees you stay in the top 5 no matter what.

Raptors will have to trade Lowry if they want to get that worst team spot...all up to Masai/Bobby

For Lowry's sake I hope we trade him. If not he'll be a great leader for whatever lottery pick we draft.

Cade got the highest floor and most unique skill set as a 6"8 pg that can actually shoot unlike simmons or melo

Suggs is the most polished and successful rn, very great leadership and determination

Kuminga could be the best or the worst depending on certain factors, which is usually the case with 2 way potential wings like him who need to put it all together

Mobley is the only big so need/preference would really play a factor but he's the prototypical big for the new nba

Lamelo has gotten his shooting on track and Graham has been so terrible, I would start Lamelo and bench Graham.

I think Kuminga's floor is a big Anthony Edwards.

if masai was to choose, he would probably pick kuminga or mobley, since we have no frontcourt depth. but suggs/cade are way too talented, man this tough

True but something about his form is just so inconsistent to me.

Kuminga probably a little more disciplined offensively than Edwards

its a good problem to have....as long as we can land the top 5 pick this year....we are good!

each of these 5 players could have been the number 1 picks in 2020 draft

1) Kuminga
2) Cunningham
3) Suggs
4) Mobley
5) Green

I'd trade back in this draft if we get #1. Great way to shorten the rebuild.

Cade, Suggs, Green, Mobley, Kuminga, Jalen Johnson, Barnes, bouknight, Moody, Greg Brown, Williams, Boston

It's going to be hard to fail in the top 10

Only worth trading back if it keeps us in the top 5. Kinda like what Boston did to Philly by trading from 1 to 3 and still getting Tatum

Like trading Doncic for Trae and Reddish?

Yeah I’m personally not a fan of trading down at all but if it were to come down to that I’d rather keep it within the top 5 for this draft

NotMyKawhi · Post #197 » by **NotMyKawhi** » Thu Jan 7, 2021 7:08 am

It's really a great time to be bad. There's no clear cut, Zion #1 player but pretty much everyone that goes top 5 would have been #1 last year.

It's kinda like the 2017 draft imo

Yea I've been watching some clips and the top 5 looks really stacked right now.

I prefer Cade because of his passing ability and size to compliment FVV. His shooting stats show that he's good but not great although his release looks good to me. Athleticism is nothing special and I'm not sure how he is on defense, but he has the tools to be good on that end. Overall, having a 6'8 PG with a decent wingspan will do wonders for our half-court offense especially with his dribble penetration

I think Suggs is the better fit for this team. Great court vision and defense, can break down the defense and get us some buckets when needed. A very determined player like Lowry but taller and more athletic.

Seriously, if we get a top 5 pick, Masai better not select some no-name, dumb-as-rocks Caboclo-clone project that is 5 years away from contributing anything. I don't mind him experimenting with the 29th pick, but not a lottery pick.
