| Heyola, I have an important announcement. It seems inevitable that the Toronto Raptors are going to select Andrea Bargnani with the First Overall Pick (Lottery Pick). Sportsbook.com is offering the ODDS of 3:2 that Andrea will be picked 1st overall. JUMP ON THIS BET NOW! The Raptors just recently hired the Italian GM (sorry, dont know his name) to help run their organization. He obviously will be praising his fellow Italian basketball player (Andrea Bargnani) and will push for the Raptors to select him. Many experts are also predicting Bargnani to go first as he seems to be the best fit into the Raptors offense (7 footer that can shoot like Dirk Nowitzki!). Good luck to everyone! |

| I hear they are trying to lure some teams in by saying they are going to take Gay, in reality they want the Italian but this way they can get their man and something extra. I think things are looking up in Canada. Which is good. |

| I also hear it's more than likely going to be Bargnani. If he does pan out then you have 2 young phenom big men in Bosh and Bargnani in Toronto. The only reason people are saying Gay is because they already have Bosh but why not have 2 good big men, you can't have enough of them in this day and age in the NBA. Things do like like things are shaping up in Toronto. Coangelo is thier GM I believe. |

| i dunno why everyone is so hyped abou tthis kid...how many soft 7'3 players have been successful in the nba...? at that size u need to be in the paint not shooting 3's...i see this being another darko, a bust...but then again who knows...toronto needs a sure thing and not a project which may or may not pan out..i would trade down if there are teams really wanting this no 1 pick

| I've never seen a 7'3 guy that has a 50% three point avg. He is really quick for his size, and slashes to the basket, it's quite amazing. Hopefully he can do it in the NBA though, I don't think this guy is a Darko. I'm excited to see him step out and take those threes, what will that do for defenses? Shaq isn't coming out to the 3 point line to guard anyone, most teams are going to have to play zone but, even that won't do any good because how is a 6'4 guy going to guard a 7'3 jump shooter? I've saw a lot of tape on this guy he can knock them down imagine Dirk only 7'3 and a little faster. Just plain bizarre if you ask me. |

| we will see...i just think a franchise esp as bad as toronto needs more of a "sure" thing, something u have seen compete against top notch competition...these euro guys, half of em never come over, half of the ones who do never do anything, then 1/10 of them are decent, and only a couple become a dirk....most of them end up like dino raja or darko. the tape on the kid looks good but who knows
