Raptors Steal First Pick in NBA Draft

wait, they don't want to draft Rudy Gay, a player who will mail it in every night?

Hey, he'll only mail it in till they trade him to a team he believes can win a ring and then he'll play like an All-Star again.

Wonder what the Knicks will do with the 2nd pick...oh, wait...

There will be no more mailing it in for the Raptors. Gone is the cancer called Vince Carter. The Raptors have a team now that is mostly happy to play for them. Now that the franchise is being ran by Brian Colangelo I have confidence that he will select a quality player/person at whatever draft position we keep or trade for. The Raptors are on the rise and the draft lottery is symbolic of what is to come. Don't jump on the bandwagon later, we don't need the turn coat haters.

Maybe they should draft someone who won't let Kobe score 81 on them anymore.

Bosh and Morrison anybody?

I'm seeing a point guard here, but there aren't many good PGs in this draft so it might be smart to trade this pick away for a good point guard. Andy Katz said LeMarcus Aldridge is a choice for them, but then they have two relatively undersized big men in Bosh and Aldridge (both are listed at about 6-10, 240). That or draft Brandon Roy from Washington to shore up the SG hole.

I think Marcus Williams from UConn could be a Chris Paul/Steve Nash-type of PG and really help an offense find its rythm.
