So for those of you who don't know... tomorrow night is the NBA draft... a time of the year that I really look forward to... we get to try and predict picks, and imagine what our raptors are gonna look like... I know, I know, I'm a nerd...
This year is extra special, though, cause for the first time ever, the raps have the first overall pick... wooohooo!!!
So, here are some rumors and things that I've heard, some that I hope are gonna happen, and others that I hope won't...
Bargnani... I'm not a huge fan of this guy... especially if we have to take him at #1... it's too much pressure on a guy who has never played with the talent from the states... he could be amazing, or he could be a bust... I'd rather not go with him...
Aldridge... same sort of deal... this guy will play a lot bigger, so in my mind, he's already a better pick then Bargnani... the only thing is that I don't see him becoming a star... and isn't that what we really want from our pick??? the chance of picking a real superstar?
Morrison... does anyone else see an old perv when you look at him... I dunno though, I really see the potential for him to become a superstar in this league, he just scores so much... and that's what wins in the NBA...
Gay... now this is the guy that I want to get... I see him being a real super star... he's got so much potential, and I really think that he can reach it... it's sorta like CV when he first came to Toronto...everyone was hesitant about him... saying that he was lazy and all... I really think that Gay is in the same sort of mould..
As for trades... I hope that we're able to trade down and grab either Gay (my personal choice) and Bargnani (I think he'll do much better if picked lower)... but I have heard an amazing trade... Ray Allen and the 10th pick for CV and MoPete... I say if this trade is out there... we do it right away... no questions asked...
I dunno... that's enough from me for now... I'll write another entry in a couple days when we find out what happened with the draft... until then... |
