Re: Official Raptors 2011 NBA Draft Thread, Part 8
What would you do if Raps could get Kanter and Biyombo as their future front court, but had to give up Ed Davis? Would you do it???

Never!
I definately don't risk Ed for a "prospect" like Biyombo.

There's absolutely no way I would give up Ed Davis for Biyombo, so no.

Kanter has very advanced footwork for a guy his age, as well as a very well developed shot, combine that with his massive frame, this is a cant miss type of prospect. If hes available at our pick and Dwill and Irving are gone, you take him. High IQ, high motor, developed NBA body at this early age, great work ethic from all accounts, good head on his shoulders. Imagine him in a few years with proper NBA trainers and workout regimens, he is going to be a powerhouse in the post. I say take him and run if hes at our pick.

I want him in TORONTO!

Sometimes green font just isn't necessary, this is one of those times.

2. Williams
3. Kanter
4. Knight
5. Leonard
6. Walker
7. Vesely
8. Biyombo
9. Thompson
10. Valanciunas

Is Leonard working out at Attack as well? Cuz that's where Ford is today and said he'd be tweeting about it.

Kanter looked great. Tough. Great shooter. Skilled. Showed some leaping ability. In great shape. Feeling good about our Top 3 projection.

I think Ford saw Leonard in the past few days working out elsewhere, not at Attack. He tweeted that his shooting looks much improved.
But I can't buy the idea of Leonard as a top 5 pick, personally. I think it would be a mistake to take him that high.
