    1) Brandon Rush
    2) Donte Greene
    3) Robin Lopez
    4) Chris Douglas-Roberts
    5) Nicolas Batum

    Thats what I wish for at the draft, I wouldnt take CDR with the 17th pick though. Im slowly coming around to selecting Lopez as many media outlets have connected the Raptors to taking him, but I would take Rush anyday or Greene if they are available when we are picking. With Parker possibly leaving after this season Rush looks like the perfect replacement as he is a fundamentally sound player who is a great spot up shooter. Greene I would take a gamble on, yeah alot of people look at his "chucking" mentallity but I see it as a good thing as he really wants to score. If properly developed Greene could become a legit scoring option for the Raptors. Robin Lopez may be the one the Raptors end up drafting, we could use his size in the post and hustle and he seems like a slight upgrade of Varajeo. Batum looks like he is slipping across all the boards and I would take a chance at him if he falls into the 2nd round and we are able to generate a trade for a 2nd round pick.

    There is still a chance that a player we really want slips to 17 and we decide to keep the pick and cancel the trade.

    lol, that's a shame. They were great profiles nonetheless though.

    I wouldn't mind Jamont Gordon from Miss. St. There's certain to be a bunch of European prospects at that stage too (Pekovic, Tomic, Ibaka,Asik).
