Do we actually have a pick or do we owe it to someone?

What a waste for Toronto. The only guys worth a 1st pick are guys that Toronto doesnt need.

 Say hello to the #1 overall pick in the 2006 draft: Andrea Bargnani.

Go Raptors! I love that team and i'm pretty sure they are going to draft Aldridge as it stands right now.
Tough luck for Portland though, but #4 isin't so bad considering there are easily 4 guys that could go #1. |

Of course, Bargnani and Charlie V play the same kind of 3-4 swing position, but that's just a wrinkle that the Raptors will have to iron out later, by plugging in one of the two players in the small forward spot, or else by later executing a trade...

Makes sense if you put it like that, I was just basing that assumption off of what i've heard about Bosh and how he compliments the kid every chance he gets. He would feel a lot better about signing an extension with his boy whom hes played with in highschool on board and like has the size to be a center (with post game!). Toronto hasn't had that in a long time.
Obviously not my call but Bargnani could be a major bust for a GM who hasn't been there too long and is trying to make a good impression and fix years of Rob Babcock terror, i'd stick with what I know. Scouts can seriously misjudge talent... I mean theres limitless examples of that, Raps new GM shouldn't gamble too much whereas the #2 Bulls are already a playoff caliber team so they can be a little more flexible. Trading the pic isin't out of the question either. |

Poeple are saying tht this draft is not a good one and that there are not good players in it. But i think this is one of those drafts that will produce a really great player that no one expects.

NBADraft.net currently has Sene going 22 to the Nets. Do we have anything worthwhile to trade in order to move up? Is he worth it with three centers on the roster, including two who can still be considered prospects (Diop, DJ)?

Additionally, Saer is represented by agent Bouna N'Diaye, who is friends with Amadou and also represents DJ, so my guess would be that if Donnie had to sacrifice one of our young players in order to open up a roster spot for Saer, then he would be more likely to drop Rawle than DJ, and I'd further bet that he would be counting on the useful role that both Diop and DJ would be capable of playing in helping to acclimate Sene to the United States and to the NBA game over the course of the next couple of seasons.

I really don't think mbenga is going anywhere. If the mavs expect to continue to keep their payroll down they cannot let potential big men go unless it's a s&t for something. I would really like to see a big man that can score a little bit. Diop/damp don't seem to really be that. If DJ can get a little more polished he can play the big role sort of like killer but can easier play D on bigs. If DJ could break into the lineup we'd have a pretty potent front line there.

Yeah, its going to be an interesting offseason.
I hope Cuban doesn't tinker too much with this championship caliber team.

A key need for us: someone to stop Amare Stoudamire next season.
Saer Sene looks like a perfect fit for that, and I think we should go get him. |

Both the mock drafts I've seen have us taking Kyle Lowery.
Any thoughts, how well would he fit in with this team?
