Raptors 2014 Draft - the future 'bragging rights' thread

[octothorp]

1. 20, 37, 59
2. Capela, Ennis, Anderson
3. Inglis, Klimenko, Birch, Russ Smith, Bachynski, Ejim
4. Hood
5. no huge surprises: everyone in the lottery will be someone who's been put in top 18 or so in recent mocks

The Heat are aggressively trying to move up in the draft to nab Napier. The Raptors are a potential trade partner as Napier is likely gone at #26 but could be in play at #20. This could be an opportunity for the Raptors to flip spots and potentially grab a 2017 first rounder (Cleveland owns Miami's 2015 first pick).

yeah, i heard they're offering norris cole and #26.

if certain players are gone by 20 it might be a good idea to take the trade

Here is Tyler Ennis' prediction:

If Ennis isn't there at 20, i'd do that trade in a heartbeat, I love Cole. Especially his flat top.

I'd rather their 2017 pick and maybe a future second round pick. I don't like cole, and we would have too many capable point guard if greasy and lowry come back

something you can't really worry yourself with, during the draft. do you even know for sure the raps will be able to resign lowry, much less GV? does GV still re-sign if lowry moves on?

Greasy is coming back for sure, he's been boosting about it since we got eliminated. He is coming back no matter what happens trust me. The only thing is lowry, but I think mu will have an idea by draft night. Hopefully

[DanH]

MIA probably wouldn't move another 1st to move up - but Cole, 26th and their 55th this year would be a good get for 20. There's a solid chance one of Capela or McDaniels slips to 26, and if not, you ensure that you get Inglis and use the 37th elsewhere.

[IROR]

Could Saric fall to 20? News now that he will stay in Europe 2 years wow

[enlightenment]

Nope. He will be stashed for 2 years after being taken high in the first round.

[Dr Hannibal Lecter]

Tomorrow is draft can't wait,hopefully Musai does something.

Gotta gut feeling it will be one the pg..Tyler Ennis or Shabazz Napier.
However I would love 2 c raptors move into top 6,7 pick and get Marcus Smart,that guy sure looks like superstar in the waiting.
