This thread will remain open until the Raptors make their selection, then we'll move onto the other thread.

Fairly positive it'll be Gerald Henderson, since DeMar DeRozan won't be available anymore.

I'm not going to add someone who will likely be selected in the late teens to mid twenties.

Dude--there is no way Terrance is going to fall to the mid twenties. He has a promise in the lottery.
Anyways--raptors will take DD 100% especially if Evans is gone by then

DeMar DeRozan, if he's gone then Gerald Henderson or Jonny Flynn.

Dude your unreal man, he is rumored ot be going 7th, 11th or 12th

Where is Teague considered to go?

He has also worked out for the Raptors twice this year, the only one to do so.

Not to be a backseat mod, but is there really a need for 4 "draft" sticky threads?

BTW in order for me: DeRozan, Flynn, Holiday

Draft day is always crazy. Plus these two pre draft threads will be locked and unstickied once the draft starts anyways.

Evans please, move up for him.

Underrated player in this draft: Teague.

This is who will they select, not whom do I want them to select, right?

I voted DeRozan. I'd prefer Evans but he won't be there, and I won't be upset with DD.

LittleOzzy, just give him the Terrence Williams option.
It's gonna stop at 1 anyway.

As for me, I'd trade up for Evans. But like Rhettmatic said, I think they'll draft DD

I think the options should be based on the players that BC shortlisted on the FAN 590 and then have an "other" option. Some of these players are way out there Jeff Teague ain't going top 10 for sure. The list needs to add James Johnson.

Considering Blair and Teague is on the list I'd think the TWill omission was purposefully done to piss someone off.

I really hope that if they keep the pick and Curry/Evans/Harden/Hill are gone that the Raps take BPA Jennings.

I actually wouldn't be surprised that BC will take Jennings.

His interview the other day mentioned guys like Demar, Evans, Jrue and Flynn.

Maybe he is doing the same smoke screen tactic as he did when he drafted Amare. He kept on calling teams to try and pretend he wanted to trade up and take Chris Wilcox. At the end Amare fell to him.
