Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
I don't know if there's a place in this league for a guy like that... I'm not sure he'll ever be able to get end-to-end quick enough. But man... if he could get to 300ish?


We're not that far removed from the great wall of china lumbering up the court, if they had just gotten a mobile PF to put next to him they could have won a title.

I'd get this kid a personal trainer and a chef, tell him work on his body and get down to 310lbs.


@Malta

lets discuss that Bruno kid being so woat that he was on the bench crying after getting embarrassed and dunked on by CJ Fair. Only a franchise like the Raptors draft a project player thats 4 years away with the 20th pick in one of the deepest drafts. :beli:


He's a couple years away, but he's better than I expected and Brazilian basketball is resting on his shoulders so I hope he succeeds for yall.

Ehh... You could tell how frustrated he was. But he's already shown that he can compete with the ball in his hands. He needs to learn to move off the ball, cut, create spacing, etc.

You never want to see a dude cry, but it's easy to see how he was overwhelmed.

When it's all said and done, I don't think he'll be that much of a reach. Talent wise, he's very much in line with those taken five before and five after him.

Word. 18 years old, new country, language but dude is way too raw. He was lost on defense, he shot 9 3's and isn't the athlete that I thought he was. I get that he's not going to get better in that shytty Brazilian league but how is he going to get better rotting on the Raptors bench? I understand with the 20th pick, you won't get a superstar so you can afford to swing for the fences but there was talent on the board that could contribute now. Give me Shabazz over overpaying for Vasquez. Give me McGary instead of picking up Hansbrough's option.

I love how people say Lebron will help mold Wiggins when evidence has shown that talented players under perform playing with Bron.
