I think my post is pretty applicable to Wills post and your insult. I am only responding because its still allowed to continue.

I didn't insult anyone. You're just derailing. Like you always do.

Anyways, moving on.

Been trying to move on. Hence, using the 'FOE' function on this site to stop seeing other posts.

Like Keith Murray said, it's the most beautifulest thing in this world.

Once the Raptors get a top 10 pick in the 2022 NBA entry draft, the mocks of today are going to look DRASTICALLY different than July 2022.

Awwwwww yeah!

He is going to finish what Raef Lafrentz started in the last 90s early 2000s.

He would be the perfect C for this team. Can we fleece some team and get a top 3 pick for Pascal?

my favorites for the Raptors
1 Jaden Ivey
2 AJ Griffin
3 Kendall Brown
4 TyTy Washington
5 Tari Eason

Realistically we are only in range for Washington and Eason right now but Brown might drop a bit, we rise a bit to 10-11 and we could get him as well. Would need lottery luck for Ivey and Griffin.

A player who can defend, handle the rock and shoot will be nice.

Doubtful. Highly doubtful.

Chet is going to have to drop for the Raptors to have a chance...or if the Raps simply throw in the towel completely. Tough to see Chet falling outside of the top 3. Still early days and quite a few months to go...anything is possible.

Even with tanking it probably would not happen at this point. We would need to steal a top 3 pick or just get insanely lucky in the lottery because Chet right now is probably the #2 rated prospect behind Jabari Smith.

I just struggle to understand the purpose this year. Loyalty is amazing and all, but we certainly feel lost in no mans land. This team doesn’t have a true star performer, we have seriously good complimentary pieces and a star rookie with serious potential. Our two best vets may not fit the timeline with our rookie, so keeping them past their prime while waiting is likely hurting their value for us.

If we keep the ‘core’ during this trade season, then we don’t really have other assets to get a star performer, so whomever we might get likely won’t be a major difference maker. It just feels predictable that we max at the playin or first round, which is the area we (including Masai) don’t want to be.

I’m not completely sold on Chet. Come at me will. Lol

Yeah I finally decided to utilise the feature on one and it’s been pleasantly refreshing.

Power Surge told us that dreams are free :lol:

No matter how it's sliced, I will be absolutely elated to the moon if/when the Raps land a top 10 pick.

Hayward the LEAST of the Raps worries.

Miles Bridges, Melo Ball, Rozier III and Oubre gunning off the bench have carried the Hornets for large portions of their season thus far.

Wow. Ton of traction in that playoff world order thread since inception.

Kidding.

By some way or miracle...if the Raps land a big man in the draft...hoooo man.

HOOOO MAN.

Look, beggars cannot be choosers here. A young, hungry player who has skills and is willing to defend will be a huge add.

Totally. Sadly, I’d bet we pick around 14th at this point though.

A lot will change from now until the draft.

Confident Masai and Bobby will ensure the best for this team.

THE BEST.

Does anyone in this draft have superstar potential? I don't see anyone with that kind of upside in this draft.

There’s always a few surprises every year. In a few months we’ll also have a better idea of the elite prospects.
