  1. Didn't like the body language but that doesn't matter. Hope he earns a spot in the rotation

  2. The number one big man still on the board and a HUGE need and you take another Scottie Barnes clone. I'm done.

  3. Is this mean, raptors is trading Ingram, RJ or Barnes???? weird that he got picked and passed on the centre that raptors needed.

  4. Raptors fans read into the reactions way too much calm tf down og and jakobe were the same way and it turned out fine

  5. I love all the immature people trying to dramatize this and act like they can read his mind. People say this out of relief and excitment all the time. He is clearly happy in the press interview he did after this

  6. Sad for the kid who's now getting his whole life uprooted to be sent to another country (in spite of the many millions he'll be paid lol) and sad for the raptors org who just had their draft night ruined seeing their favored prospect not reciprocate

    Everyone wouldve been better off if they drafted another person I guess

  7. People saying he looks disappointed are dumb. He looks more shocked tbh and was smiling right after dropping the f bomb.

  8. I found it astonishing his reaction considering the fact that many other people in YOUR position would LOVE the opportunity to play with this organization! I find I completely disrespectful you saying F*** after getting drafted, hate your energy & don’t want you playing for the team. Wish you get traded

  9. This is not a reaction of shock or relief as he said. More tax and travel but it is a big city and he will like it. He has a good coach and teammates. Raps have a glut of wings so you figure RJ might be gone to save money and get some shooting and a backup C.

  10. players want to play in toronto, more than they want to play in memphis, philly or washington. these players are nervous and everyone of them wanted to be drafted higher, especially after being projected as high as 6.

  11. When you’ve sitting waiting for your name to be called, it’s a relief! So yeah he may have dropped the F-bomb but maybe for other reasons! Toronto is not a bad place to be!

  12. This guy got Masai fired. He has been drafted one day and alienated a country and got a GM gone. This guy has started off strong.
