http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/bask...aft1/index.html "Billy Knight may trade down to get a point guard, but if he picks the most talented player regardless of position, as he is wont to do, the gifted Gay may be the choice. Blessed with an explosive first step and quick jumping ability, Gay will fit right in." You have got to be kidding me....What an idiot
6"10 240 and skinny. He can not play center. He is a Euro Forward and is a pansy from the reports I have read about him. We arent drafting for more offensive talent. God. We scored 100 points a game last year. We need to draft Rudy Gay because he is the most talented player in the draft, he can fill the need at guard, and he is a do everything, athletic guy.Also, we need to upgrade on defense, this kid cant play defense, and he is not the answer for us at center. We need to stop trying to jam pack players in at the Center position and get a guy to play center who we know will go out and play good interior def. for us. ANd again, we have drafted big in the 1st round the past 3 drafts. Time for a change. Lets get another singman.
They already have like 5 or 6 SG's/SF's on that team lol. And almost all of them are capable of starting.

The kid cant play Center.</div> Yeah, I don't get why people can't see that the Raptors don't need a forward. Lmao this is porbabely the worst mock I've ever seen. Alot of this was done by who's the best in the NCAA and downward, not what hte teams need and what htey can use.
Look at the best teams in the NBA, they don't have bruising centers...Bargnani is quick and would pose a huge mismatch with his agility and shooting.
Im done with this. Youre too ignorant.Duh, we need defense dude. We need a big brusing center. And why would we draft 4 straight big men in the 1st round?
Teach Charlie Villanueva and Chris Bosh to play defense. Your not going to get it through the draft...Their is no big bruising center in the draft.
We dont need one. We need an athleticd swingman to add to our roster, we are looking at the most talented player in the draft here. We dont need another big, so lets go with Gay because there are no pg's up that high either. Gay is an athletic freak, who can play some perimeter defense for us..
no no no youre drafting bargani its very simple.pg-villi-bargani-bosh-cidk who the other guys are, but thats a VERY big lineup, and a very solid one at that. three top scorers. colangelo will take who he thinks is best, and that would be bargnani
If they take Bargnani I think it would be better to play these guysPG-Graham-Villi-Bargnani-BoshI dont think Villi and Barganani would be good at SG and SF and Graham I think can play very well when given the chance.
Graham cant play guard. And if he did, Mo Pete would start over him anyway. And also Chris cant play center either. He isnt big enough, and for a star player, you cant have him being banged around in there. We dont need another Power Forward. Stop with this guys lol.

Villuaneva is a sf but can also play a bit of pf. bargani is not a sf. he is a 6'11 power foward. Last like what cb4 has been saying. They need defense!!!! not a scorer. they already have scorers in villuaneva, bosh, mo pete, jalen rose, etc. I mean they average 101 ppg!!! Do you want proof that they need defense??? How about the afct that the raptors gave up 104 ppg. Does that give you the point??? Thats why they need Gay. Hes an athletic swingman that can play defense.Anyways for SI's mock draft I think it really does beat FoxSports mock as the worst ive ever seen.
