I would not be upset if the Raptors moved into the 20's to take him or Tim Hardaway Jr.

Depending if they pick up picks I hope the Raps look at
PGs
Burke
Schroeder
Kabongo
MCW
Wings
Bullock
Franklin
Bigs
Dieng
Leslie
I like the longer PGs if they keep Lowry, so MCW and Kabongo are high on my list. Bullock is a steady guy with outside shooting and Franklin has great defensive potential. Dieng is that traditional big people want, while CJ Leslie is more of a stretch 4 who can play some 3. A couple years ago he was rated much higher-- I guess that's what you get for becoming educated.
I think Kabongo is significantly undervalued, but that will change during the draft. Also, for a draft so deep in long term players a lot of teams sound like they want to move their picks. I guess I should have added the Greek kid if the Raps want to stash their pick for a couple years.Last edited by blackjitsu; Thu Jun 6, 2013, 03:33 AM.

Kabongo is intriguing cause he's got the size and speed to definitely hang with the pros. I think if he learned behind lowry for a year or two he could definitely be a starting point guard. the whole "canadian" thing is a huge plus and really reinforces the "canada's team!" thing@sweatpantsjer

While spending some time on 103.3’s Fitzsimmons & Durrett show [KESN-FM], the Dallas Mavericks forward discussed the importance of landing one of those two players.
“If we don’t get the two monsters then we got to find another way,” Nowitzki said, “through sign-and-trades or other free agents that are out there.”
Nowitzki also made it clear that signing several players to one-year deals, like the Mavericks did last off-season, would not get it done. The 15-year veteran is looking to return to the postseason and adding a star point guard like Paul or a dominant post presence like Howard is probably the best way to get that done.

Would Gay be a welcome addition in Dallas?

Likely first round pick Dario Saric is leaning toward withdrawing from the NBA Draft, according to ESPN.com.
Sources say that Saric, who plays for the Croatian team Cibona, understands his lofty draft position but wants to stay in Europe one more year to hone his skills. He's enjoying his time in Croatia and feels he's not quite ready for the NBA.
The Croatian forward is projected to go in the top 25 with CBSSports.com's Gary Parrish having him being taken 19th by the Cavaliers and Matt Moore has him going 22nd to the Nets.
Saric has been linked to a number of teams with interest in him landing as high as the Pelicans (sixth), Mavericks (11th) and Thunder (12th). Pelicans general manager Dell Demps was reportedly in Croatia to scout Saric last week.
If Saric does indeed withdraw, it will make an already perceived weak draft even weaker. He's likely a draft and develop player, but certainly a capable, potential lottery talent.
Saric, 19, has until June 17 to make his final decision.
Bad news for everyone on this board interested in him...Twitter - @thekid_it
