Welcome to Toronto Ed Davis

[Tim W.]

This reminds me of when Andre Iguodala fell and Babcock decided not to accept the gift. This time, Colangelo jumped on it.

[MattyG-Ray]

I think he was the best player available, so I have no problem with this pick. He doesn't really fit if Bosh and Amir resign, but with so much uncertainty surrounding the roster, best player available was the way to go.

I was really hoping Toronto would make a move to grab Cousins or Monroe, allowing Bargs to move to PF if Bosh leaves, but i knew it was unlikely.

[Ambidextrious]

Hope its nothing, but its not usually a good thing when you have the overbearing father around.

He's never been to canada, and he "Says" he hasn't heard anything bad about toronto (Except the snow) ... The look on face said different.

[rdiaz101]

Just what we didnt need. Another finesse big.

I thought we were done with the Bosh era, now we get Bosh Jr.

Im really bummed right now.

Maybe I'll come around.

Hopefully we can get Orlando's 1st rounder for Ebanks here.

Or a 2nd rounder and get Stanley Robinson.

If what I am hearing about Chic giving up #17 and Hinrich for a 2nd rounder and cash, then BC needs to explain why he could top that with two 2nd rounders.

I am so confused with that trade.

an athletic, long big man with a scoring touch yeah we don't need that especially since our franchise player might be leaving. Ur a fool I hope u dont come around

Man that was an awesome pick, if CB leaves we got Davis, if CB stays (kinda unlikely) we have some good trade assets to use over the year, this draft worked out perfectly. I was just on the live chat from the raptors site and i saw a lot of hate towards Davis because they never heard of him and wanted to draft Bradley instead...Davis is top ten material in this draft Bradley went 19th so....im stoked for this lol

I'm astounded that anyone would have ANYTHING bad to say about this pick. There's no way Davis should have dropped to 13 and I add him to the list that includes Paul Pierce, Danny Granger and Andre Iguodala (among others) of players projected to go in the top 5 or 10 and inexplicably dropped and then made the other teams regret passing up on him.

I'm guessing no one in the Davis camp was happy Ed lasted as long as he did.

Guy was in the NBA for 10 years, he would know how to address the media.

The "passport" type comments are idiotic,dumbass ignorant Americans as so lame........insecure Canadians worrying American ballers don't like us are also lame

[Hotshot]

Please enlighten me on the number of free agents American stars the Raptors have signed over the years.

That doesn't mean I have to like it.The moment we sign someone the clock begins on when he'll want to leave, it gets tiresome
