Looking back on it how OG couldn't stay healthy for the Knicks postseason run and was absent for our chip run, that RJ & IQ trade looking genius right now. Now, we need to draft a center like Edey or Filipowski and get a forward/guard.
Idk don’t about that pascal trade tho
Agree. I love OG but he’s only good when healthy and when he puts up stinker games it’s kinda overshadows what he does on the defensive end. He’ll be 27 this year. As great of a defensive wing he can be there are a lot of other great defending wings like Jaden McDaniels and Herb Jones who are younger and often more healthy.
@@Ctrill23yeah Pascal trade was and still is an L. He’s in the ECF while we’re at home with a guy eating up cap space who’s only good playing next to MVPs. The picks we got from Indiana fucking suck and the development piece we got with Nwora is not it. Can see why this is his 3rd team in 3 years in the league.
that Siakam trade was terrible but they really wanted to tank for that top 4 pick. they would have been stuck in the play in with Siakam most likely
Thats Cause Thibodeau works his players to the ground. Playing 42-44 Mins during regular season games will catch up sooner or later
Kel-el- Ware scored 100 on his combine. Will be surprised he ends up at 31 but if so, he would be a nice pick up imo
Ware won’t be there at 31 man. This is why I never take these odds seriously.
Someone will drop to 19, same at 31.
I would only take edey if he’s at 31. And we took a guard at 19
But I think we go highest upside at 19. And a 3 and d player at 31.
I really like Devin Carter and salaune. But I doubt salaune is still there at 19.
There’s a chance of ware being there. If anyone can get him to play hard it’s Scottie Barnes. So let’s see.
Devin Carter is a beast. Athletic freak, great rebounder.
can move bruce brown for knicks 24th pick.
I’m more interested in Bobi Klintman at 31 I think he is gonna be a Stud
hes incredible but IMO he wont be there at 31, would love for us to trade up abit or even take a shot at 19
Tyler Smith goes at 19 for us Then we grab another player in the 20's with the Bruce brown Trade.. Smith has played against nba talents and his more ready
For Tidjane, as a French man, in English I would suggest pronouncing it: Teedjaan Salon
Raps imo should draft Edey, sign Isiah Hartenstein, and trade Jakob or Brown for more picks.
No they won’t stop saying that
Needed a good chuckle. Thanks. Hartenstein is only 2 years younger and is not much better at shooting than Jak so what would that accomplish? The Jak trade was one of Masai's worst moves. Had they waited the season previous they could have used the 20 mil to sweeten the pot for Naz Reid who is only making 14 mil per😢
Carter would be the ideal pick at 19 but I think Miami will take him at 16. Kelel Ware would be a great pick as well at 19 I don't think he will fall to 31. Salaun looks like a stud but he's so young will he be ready when Scottie ascends in 2 or 3 years? I wouldn't mind DaSilva at 19 he's nba ready, or Daron Holmes, Raps need a good PF to replace Siakam. Ryan Dunn would be a great defender as an OG replacement.
Devin Carter is seemingly going Top 15. He's popping up in some recent mock drafts as such. Kel'el Ware is seemingly going Top 20. If Raps want him they will most likely have to take him at #19 if he's still available. He can have the same type of effect (rim runner, rim protector, athletic energy big) as Dereck Lively of Dallas has had in the NBA. Plus, he can step out and shoot the 3. Kel'el Ware would give the Raps some much needed size and center depth on their roster. I can see Raptors drafting Ware or Edey at #19 if they are available.
No he won’t and no he will
I'm with you on that one my bro. Edey or Ware at #19 pick, 31st we can get Ryan Dunn or that Bobbi klintman
whoever we draft this year we need to shore up our weak spots and accelerate our rebuild so we can be competitive sooner rather then later😊
@ben rogers the 19th pick you take tidjane salaun or yves missi.
then you trade bruce brown to knicks for 24th pick and take edey or ware
at 31 you take dunn if you want a guy that can play at least defence off the bench at a high level.
i dont think ware is available at 31 so the raptors have to make a choice between edey or ware at 24 if they trade bruce brown to knicks.
missi edey ware are all centers so they gotta pick one.
i think at 19 you take tidjane, who is a wing. then take edey at 24, and then you take a defensive wing at 31 in dunn
Man imagine trading up for Salaun and getting Ware the same draft. They probably won’t be starter quality but we need depth of the bench, they need NBA minutes. We probably won’t be a playoff team next season so there’s not much to lose here. Next thing would be to free up some cap space, reach an extension agreement with Scottie before other teams offer him a truck load. I’m sure IQ will re-sign for something reasonable given his age and the opportunity he’s had to showcase his talents as a starter.
Would not be mad if the team takes Carter at 19 but preference should be given to a core piece who will fit along side BBQ in the first unit. He seems like a 6th man on this team. Someone like Tyler Smith, Tristan Da Silva, and Yves Missi are preferrable as they have length and can switch between 3, 4 and 5. All have very solid jumpers and can provide space for Barnes and Barrett to operate downlow. They won't be too much of a liability on defense.
At 31 maybe you get Ware if he's there or DaRon Holmes, Edey, Filipowski or Chomche to solidfy the frontcourt core. Though if Jared McCain or Tyler Kolek slip here, you almost have to take them. They automatically becomes your 2nd unit playmaker and 6th man. Lots of options at 31.
Carter and Ware would be a pretty good draft haul! It would have been fun to spend a few minutes on the other 31st-pick choices.
Edey at 19 and Bronny at 31...either get LeBron in FA or hold the Lakers for ransom to trade for him.
I don’t know if Carter will be there. Ready to contribute players are very attractive to contending teams which most teams picking from 12 to 18 are. If Carter is available grab and get him into the rotation right away.
Ware is a potential steal and bust.
We need 2 centers and another quick guard.
Kel ware is interesting, but his shooting stats are fool mans gold. 42% from 3 on only 1.3 attempts per game... bigger sample size like 5 attempts per game I bet that comes down to sub 30%.... thats why his FT% is bad.. His athletism and heigh/length are probably his biggest draws which are allowing him to finish around the rim, rebound and block shots. His shooting is obviously something that can be improved though.. considering he was projected mid late first, getting him at 31 would be nice, I would still take Edey over him.
Still better than a center that can’t shoot
Half court offense is coming back look at Minnesota that's all they run is half court and let's not forget about Denver.
Nah, I would go with Zach or Ives at 19 and KJ Simpson at 31
I know he's more of a combo guard but I wouldn't be surprised if the Raptors address the backup PG spot by signing 23-year-old Talen Horton-Tucker in free agency. They've been linked to him a few times in the past and he's 6'4 with an insane 7'1 wingspan. Masai loves those plus wingspan guys
Ware. Excellent rim runner. Average shot blocker for his size and athleticism. Only 1.9 bpg in 32 mpg. DaRon Holmes is smaller and does more (2.1 bpg in 32 mpg). But his raw measurements are undeniable. Standing reach 9.4'5, wingspan 7'4.5, vert 36', agility tests above average. He just needs to be coached up on defense and not become the next Mo Bamba. Not mad if the Raptors take him at 19. He immediately become the team's best dunker at least lol
@benrogers off topic on your josh giddey to raptors video. josh giddey had a MINOR EFFECT on the playoffs.
Josh Giddey had a minor effect because of OKC strengths and weaknesses. Similar to IQ, we can use him more than OKC could use him because we don't have SGA. We have a need for a backup PG. Or a starter, if you think he's better than IQ, or a 1B option.
he struck a chord and its prolly A minor
@@jeffreym.8957no we can’t, we’re not trading for pdf file who is not good at basketball and is a liability, please shut your mouth with that nonsense
@@jeffreym.8957chatting a whole bunch of bs
@jeffreym.8957 we need more shooting. Can't have him, Scottie and Jak in same frontcourt starting lineup. Off the bench sure but then you have no defenders in kelly, Gradey, and him coming off the bench
Yes you want to take BPA but we have 3-4 gaps so I think we can take almost anyone and get depth.
Ulrich Choche, Tidjane Salaun, or Edey would be fantastic if we could ever pull it off. Love Rob Dillingham but he will be long gone from where the Raptors pick. Ulrich Choche IMO is the 2nd coming of Siakim
I agree Ulrich Chomche is super interesting. He's either the second coming of Pascal Siakam or the second coming of Bruno Caboclo but it's a gamble I'd take at 31 and maybe could be convinced at 19
Missi is closer to Siakam. He's a spin machine!
I want Zach Edey at all costs, especially seeing how the league is moving back to needing two solid big men, I'd take him at #19 because a lot of the playoff teams behind us need a big man who might take him before #31. Kyle Filipowski is a steal too if we don't get Edey, I like his game as he represents more of that modern NBA big man who can shoot the 3. Kel'el Ware is another guy we gotta consider too, so much potential, he'll be taken before #31 too. Carter is very interesting, but I think he'll be taken before 19.
Well we’re not drafting him so…
@@destinduckworth5484 Well you're not Masai Ujiri or Bobby Webster either so...
@@PredatorKingdom This boy acting like he the GM, saying we're not drafted, I hate these cornballs bro
Enough with Edey.. the man’s feet is too slow for our offense and he doesn’t have Jokic or Embiid’s defensive instincts to make up for his slow feet. If JV has slow feet and struggled to guard the pick and roll and Edey is even slower than JV then he’s going to struggle even more. He’s going to be a defensive liability anywhere outside the key. He’s just too slow and too robotic. This is the NBA and not the NCAA where’ he going to be guarded by some guy studying business that has no future in the NBA. You need more than just being big.
@@kawhi2019 He a goofy just like this other boy Mikey James.
where are these percentages gotten from?
hoops rumors ai did an ai draft.
aint no world where Ware falls to second round, I would be surprised if he was still available at 19
Dude, it can’t be a steel if you’re selecting 135th.
Honestly I’m happy with any of the bigs. They seem a lot better than the wings in this draft. And The guards are either too small or cant shoot
I agree. Although I am not as educated in this draft but in general the league is going big again. Wolves have a real chance of winning it all. Grab mobile height
Carter will be gone before the 19th pick, and Ware will be gone before the 31st. To get all amped up over Ware at 31 is sheer folly as he'll be long gone by then. Some mocks have him going before 19.
We have enough 6’4 players
Carter is a great player. Watched 2 games. Wouldnt hate it.
But me...
Im trading back for the knicks 2 1st in the 20s and taking kolek and edey. They are perfect fits and steals. And then get a raw forward with the 2nd round pick if it wasnt trade to knicks.
Ayeee
😂
Miami will take Devin Carter at 16.
Odds are that Masai and Bobby will screw up these picks as well! Best move for the Raptors is to fire both of them and start with a clean slate. Otherwise we will spend the season watching the eighth pick who should have been ours!
Trade Jakob & Bruce for 2024 Picks!!
Boston and Chicago are interested in Zach Edey..don't care much for this draft
Zach and Bronny... Let's gooo
Get out. You're banned for mentioning Bronny
Ban this guy 🤦♂️
haha siakam fanboys dont know ball, are we surprised?
@cissem4025 man ur right ...who would be a fan of a 2x all star 2x all nba former 2nd option championship winner ...the guy sucks 😕
@@mikeyjames ya ur right 2x national player of the year along with a marketing dream ...is a horrible plan lol
Will lou is gone.. get it
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bronny James will win ROTY. We should draft him at 19.
delusional 😂😂
Btw. Ware is too much like mo bamba for me taste.
So if u need a center... edey all day
