I know what my sig says but I'm actually praying for Mobley at this point because I know Green's not realistic and I also think it's actually kinda insane the potential he'd have HERE...in our team's developmental system...when we've turned some the rawest prospects into borderline all stars, take an actual blue chip prospect...sky is the limit.

If we don't get Mobley would you rather we take a risk and pick one of Kuminga/Barnes or would you take Suggs?

Don't sell Suggs short. This is our guy. Don't fall for the "upside" play when Suggs has plenty of it. This man is supposed to be a Raptor.

Still good with one of Cade, Green, Mobley or Suggs. Can't really ask for anything more since we got lucky to move up 3 spots already.

You are contradicting yourself

FVV and Flynn is definition of small backcourt


I mean, Flynn is coming off the bench for sure but i believe they're gonna go with either Mobley if he falls or Barnes. This is what I think they will do not what i want them to do.

No matter who we get of the top 4, someone is going to be upset and make a thread about it.

If we reach for Kuminga or Barnes, Im just going to trust that the FO saw something Raptors Realgm didnt.

Aw man I hope we don't reach for Barnes at 4, just go with one of Green/Mobley/Suggs.

Barnes handle is decent for a big guy, but don't think it'll be good enough to run point in the NBA.

He looks like a defensive beast, and looks like he'll be a great utility guy in the NBA that can guard multiple positions. Yet, his shot looks awful at the moment, and half court offense is our biggest issue right now.

If we end up acquiring another high draft pick by trading Siakam or something, then I'd be cool with us taking him with the additional pick.

There's enough minutes to go around with Lowry's departure and hopefully Nurse not overplaying FVV.

Barnes gives me Iguodala type of vibes/potential. A good player but unless he has a Lowry type change in his 3pt shooting, then not a superstar. Iggy is no slouch though
