BR guy saying there were rumors Suggs workout with Raps went bad

At this point it seems either Scottie Barnes and Jalen Suggs. There is a bunch of information flying around team executives right now that Suggs' workout with the Raptors did not go very well.

Raptors dont leak information but suddenly to justify this horrible pick they are? Workouts mean nothing

Thank you for picking Scottie Barnes before we had a chance to waste our pick on him

This information got out this morning. I'm not justifying the pick but it was known earlier in the day. I'm with you these workouts don't mean shyt unless they had a chat and Suggs said he didn't want to come here.

i love the whole he's a draymond, boris diaw :childplease:

Anyways even if he was draymond was a second round pick and boris diaw was picked like 18th

for all my criticism about not resigning lowry etc., raps struggled scoring last year and are about to lose a guy for nothing who avg 17 a game.

no rookie would ever do that

Suggs is low key and went to Gonzaga for crying out loud

so where do we go from here

Same weaknesses as before, NO BIG, pascal and fvv as our number 1 and number 2 scorers :picard: a bunch of guys on the bench who can't even score.

the lure is gone, raps prob gonna waste money on a kelly olynyk, josh richardson,

The guy posted this 10 hours ago, could justify why they did not pick him. I dont think Raptors would be leaking this 10 hours ahead to a random guy

when jalen suggs is avg 15 and 7 and scottie barnes is struggling to get minutes over dwayne bembry remember I told you so

The thing is that they drafted three big "point forward" types (Scottie Barnes 6'8, Banton 6'9, David Johnson 6'6) tonight too, and all three have trouble shooting the ball. What are they trying to do here? :russ:

We'll see how this is gonna look next Sunday:

Fan 590 was killing the Raps FO for the pick this morning....JD Bunkis nailed the rant about this pick...He said everything i was thinking the fit is bad the future potential trade is bad,FO overthought it because theyre too in love with there own development...and not every non shooter ur gonna turn into a shooter and that deludes them into making bad picks like this...he nailed that rant 100 % on why it was a bad pick...

The analogy to Pete Carroll over thinking on the 1 yard line instead of putting it in Marshawns hands was perfect,the better fit better player was right there gifted to you at 4 and instead the FO overthought and didnt put it in the endzone...
