@JLew1050: Bruno Caboclo profile, sent out by the Raptors

Like I said, dude reminds me of Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Several teams pursuing Capela with the Rockets, league sources tell Yahoo Sports. Stay tuned.

So Toronto had no need for two picks in early 20s, scuttling Raps' potential trade of John Salmons and No. 37 for Tayshaun Prince and No. 22

Nice to see the Raps drafted Rafael Araujo 2.0. They drafted a player from the Brazilian soccer team - see you during the next World Cup, Bruno!

No resemblance whatsoever. If you want to criticize the pick, at least say something that makes sense.

Not even close to an Araujo comparison. Nice try though.

Araujo played NCAA basketball.

With Chandler now back with the Mavs and Nowitzki also coming back, what if LBJ decides to join Dallas and Dirk takes a nice cut to allow for another big signing? Just wondering I guess.

The Los Angeles Clippers will select CJ Wilcox with the 28th pick, league source tells Yahoo Sports. (BOOOO...I'm a lakers fan too)

Why would he go to the Mavs? Team is older and slower then the Heat.

I hope the Leafs don't draft like the Raptors tomorrow.

It is amazing to me how many Raptor fans have no idea who Bruno Caboclo is...but know he is horrible pick.

Hearing the Raptors and Suns haven't come to an agreement on an Ennis trade yet, as reported by ESPN. Raptors still pursuing him.

Please. Get'r done ujiri

that's some well thought out and rational reasoning for this opinion.

AGAIN ARAUJO PLAYED NCAA BALL! HE GETS HELD UP AS THE DREADED EURO FAILURE (setting aside that South America isn't "euro") WHEN HE WENT TO COLLEGE JUST LIKE ALL THE COVETED OTHER PLAYERS PEOPLE WANT.

God forbid we wait and see how this turns out before passing judgment.

As story goes, Raps promised to take Brazilian project Caboclo w/No. 37 & that's why he skipped all workouts. Grabbed him at No. 20 instead

Raptors keep trying to get Ennis, but Suns are holding out for now, per league source.

 

[The Nemesis]

Really Cabbie? Gonna ambush Ennis and ask him about something he can't possibly talk about?

Well that's too bad.

 

[dredeye]

and Evan Fournier from France who became a very nice NBA player. Masai knows his non-NCAA guys.



One that was already discussed. Denver gives up the guy they picked at 12 (plus a crappy throwaway roster player) for the guys the Bulls picked at 16 and 19. We knew this was happening hours ago, they just couldn't make it official until now. that's the stupidity of the NBA.

Really is an odd rule considering their allowed to trade picks
