Yeah, a bad game to tune in to watch Barnes. A game to forget for him.

Anyone see that sick and 1 by Thomas Robinson to tie the game late??? Not sure what to make of him as a prospect but there's a reason hes top 5 in most mock drafts.

Edit. Ummmmm and that block too haha.
With the 9th pick in the 2012 NBA Draft (Fail) the Toronto Raptors select...Damian Lillard!! (I hope)

How has he looked in this game, and what do you project him to be in the NBA?

He's intriguing.

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


hey dude, i'm gonna miss the game right now, can you recap his game when its finished. Yup, I'm going to miss my first UNC game of this season. :cry:

are you gonna be a unc diehard next year when Barnes is gone? join the AZ community, best team for you.


Not really, just fans of the prospects, as a matter of fact, out of all the schools I most dislike are UNC and Duke...I just don't like these big name schools taking over the college basketball. I like Georgian Tech, for their jersey only. But I'm not a big fan of any teams.

As anyone seen Damian Lillard play?

Heard someone mention him as a sleeper in this draft and after reading some stuff on him i'm left wondering, if we can grab another pick, might we be able to find our future PG in this draft.

After playing only nine games in 2010-2011 and being granted a medical redshirt, Weber State's Damian Lillard is off to a tremendous start through thirteen games as a junior, leading the nation in per-game scoring and doing so with remarkable efficiency. His hot early season play has caught the attention of scouts, who will likely be watching him closely throughout the remainder of the season to get a better feel for how his game might translate to the NBA level.

As we've mentioned before, Lillard possesses very appealing physical tools for an NBA point guard prospect, standing at 6'2” with an excellent frame and wingspan, to go along with very good athleticism.

Lillard has also done a better job of taking care of the basketball thus far, cutting his turnover rate almost in half from previous seasons. This is quite an impressive feat, considering his heavy usage and how much his team depends on him to create offensively. To illustrate that, he actually ranks #1 amongst all NCAA point guard prospects in terms of turnovers per possession, coughing the ball up on just 10% of his possessions.

Would the Jazz consider trading their two picks for our pick?

Trey Burke has a little CP3 in his game. An absolute gamer. I think he is the best freshman pg in America and would be the guy I target with another pick.

Kid can score, he can defend and is already better than Bayless on pick and rolls.

My sleeper pick if he declares.

Awful shooting night by Barnes, but his 9 rebs were very good. He can't go 36 mins with 0 asists, 0 stls, 0 blcks tho.

This draft is packed with talent I really hope the Raptors get another lottery pick some how. A draft where the Raps could get Gilchrist and Lamb or some sorta of combination with Miller, Barnes, or Beal be awesome lots of scoring here.

Bradley Beal playing power forward for Florida today proved size is not a factor for him. He pulled down double-digit rebounds while being towered over much of the game, not to mention his super efficient scoring numbers. There's a new number 1 on my draft board.

Return to Toronto Raptors
