Cozart is a solid all around player who, based on his description, should probably progress into a starter quality SF. Alvis Opalev is nowhere near a top 10 quality player, so considering he was the 9th pick, I think he’s probably the bust of the draft. He’s probably not going to be in the league past his rookie contract. Božidar Popovic is just a guy, probably never going to see the floor. Too many risks taken for the Raptors and 2 of his 3 picks should end up being basically worthless.

It's funny how incredibly wrong this write up was. Cozart turned out terrible and will not make it past his rookie contract. Opalevs is in the argument for best player from the draft and Popovic has turned into a nice little piece off the bench that will likely stick in this league for a long time to come.

Raptors draft B ('cos Cozart is a bum).

Maksim was worth #1 after all.

The pick was the right one at the time, and he looks like he will do great things next season.

Anybody want to re-rank the players from this draft? Could be interesting.

Popovic is definitely still just a guy, for reference.

Based on Cozarts writeup you would not have assumed he was going to regress every season, seeing as his entire writeup was about him progressing every season and to not underestimate his potential.

This guy never takes a play off. He does not have elite athleticism, but his room for improvement is off the charts based on what he was able to accomplish in a single offseason. It’s still unclear whether he’s going to be a slasher or a shooter at the KVBL level, but I wouldn’t bet against him succeeding at either.

This isn't real life, we don't watch game tape on the prospects. All we have to go off of is the write-ups and grades, so I have zero regret about the Cozart projection. What else would you have assumed? His rookie base ratings were pretty solid to begin with too.

And I've already said I was wrong about Opal, every single person was wrong about him except you. He looked really bad as a rookie, but he's had crazy progressions. The writeup didn't have the benefit of multiple offseasons of hindsight, his rookie ratings were highly unimpressive.

Yeah, I think his progressions are equally as impressive as Opal's (if not more so). He did not look great as a rookie, but man does he look like a stud now.

BJ I bumped this for fun, not to take a shot. You've been honest about your Alvis mistakes and I've forgiven you.

For reference Popovic is actually pretty nice, go take a look.
