Official Raptors 2012 NBA Draft Thread, Part 6

[StringerBell]

The Raptors dilemma is, what happens if we get the #1 pick? I'm assuming you draft Davis but then are we trading Bargnani or having Davis come off the bench. A Davis/JV front court might have problems offensively.

That's a dream scenario...I think you roll with a JV/Davis/Bargs front court for next year and ship ED or Amir out. Once Davis develops offensively trade Bargnani for an offensive SF or PG....its a dream

on another note PJ3 is letting me down. Putting together another stinker...QMiller looking good so far 8pts, 5rbs in 1st half.

Where are you watching it?

Quincy Miller with 10 points on 2-of-5 shooting, 6-of-7 from the free-throw line and 7 rebounds to end the first half.

Oh well I guess I'll catch Florida and UNC playing their respective opponents at 4pm. Syracuse and UConn are facing off at 9 but screw that, All-Star Saturday Night baby!

The best freshman big since probably Tim Duncan and you question what to do?

You trade Bargnani. I'd hope they trade him immediately and cash in on his new value. Stacking players at any position is only a good thing when you want to hide a players deficiencies and sell them based on potential. Otherwise, all you're doing is driving your own players value down.

Even if Drummond blows up in March I still don't think he has a chance in hell to take over Davis as the #1 pick, and that goes for any other prospects

Davis closed that book a long time ago, IMO. Now it's just a question of how much of a gap between the next best prospect. Looks like he could have some shooting range by next year. Hit a couple of tough jumpers, nailed his free throws, even calmly drained a three after a whistle. I stand behind my earlier claim that he's a better prospect than Oden.

MKG says he's staying in college..

Brett Dawson ‏ @BDawsonRivals
MKG: "I'm graduating here. I'm not going nowhere. I'm staying at Kentucky." Then, "I'm dead serious. I don't know why y'all laughing."

Thank you MKG.

[Mr.Raptorsingh]

Doubt it.

[HSOB SIRHC]

So now Drummonds and MKG both said they're staying. I'll believe it when I see it.

[ATLTimekeeper]

Calipari will shove him out the door.

[dTox]

Drummond should stay another year, but I think MKG's value is as good as it gets. Next year you have guys like Noel and Shabaz coming in and possibly a guy like Drummond, which means he'll end up being drafted in a similar slot as this years.

Thank you MKG for staying!

Calipari was not able to shove TJones out though

Even if you don't want the Raps to draft him, you want as much draft candidates as possible so even your guy has a chance to fall into your lap rather than go higher because of a lack of prospects

You are totally right, I am just too afraid that BC and them get caught up by that "high-motor" talk... it works for someone as talented and lengthy as J-Val but not MKG

[Marlo Stanfield]

MKG better be bs'ing. Even if you don't want him he's necessary to the draft in order for us to get a good player depending on where we pick. At this point we're at #4 which means worst case, we could drop to 8th. We need AT LEAST 8 quality prospects declaring to be safe.

Davis, Drummond, MKG, Barnes, Lamb, Beal, and Miller is only 7 with MKG and Drummond included. If anyone wants to bring up Jones just stay silent... Sullinger and Robinson could be potential buffers for us, but only if they're picked before we pick.

[wtfbosh]

**** CBS. I was watching Arizona vs UCLA and it was a great game. Then all of a sudden they switched to Nova vs Georgetown.

[KL78192020]

Draft Davis...we need to tank harder.

[Mr.Raptorsingh]

Great hesitation move by Barnes

Great post defence by Beal in the other game I'm watching lol.
