What was surprising about that? I didn't hear it on draft day, but apparently the local media had Diogu nabbed as the pick.

He isn't bashing yours, just making fun of how dumb your comparisons were.

How can you defend the man who is destroying your team? I don't get it. I want the Raptors to do good, but that is never going to happen with moves like the ones I listed above.

-will make the playoffs
you can throw that back in my face a year from now if I am wrong.

Shaq is alomst done and Eddy Curry career is in question which means there are few teams with centers over 260 lbs - geez duncan is listed as 6-11 Ben Wallace is 6-9 and detriot is a 1/2 court pick and roll team....
was I the only one who though Rasheed Wallace at 6-11 230 defended Tim better than anyone in the league?
I am not saying the Raps should not try to aquire Jamaal or some other bigger center if a deal is there - but I am saying that with this personelle they can win.

I gained a whole bunch of respect for you Charlz. While I didn't necessary agree with your prior assessments of Rob, but I like the fact that you hold no agenda and do individual assessments of each move (do not let prior opinions impact your assessment). edited who will bash Rob for anything.
i'm running out of -baiting jokes. i should've started with your first infraction so as not to run out of material earlier in the thread rather than later. regardless, stop all of the closet talk. you've crowded the closet as it is. speedy.

To be fair, considering what Rob's brother did to his team, can we blame him?

Re: Babcock Haters forgot about the Pheonix suns
TheATLien how can you say that Roko will never play in NBA? You never saw him play. But I did. Many times. If he develop his full potential, he will be all-star. He can do things that nobody can do in Europ including Ginobili who is not from Europ but he played in. His style of play would fit perfectly in the NBA and he should be capable of contributing right away next season.
And something you should know about. People in Europ like Canada more then USA.

Don't worry edited He praises Indiana and Boston for choosing guys who were ranked highly in the mocks. Yet when TO picks 3 of the top 20 players, they do a horrible job. edited
edited what would have been good picks for the Raptors. edited.
you must have hands-on experience to get away with all this -baiting you're doing. stop. speedy.

Yes he is. I'm surprised you did not know that. That is the style he wants to play.

I find it ironic that you are complaining about US bashing YOUR team... When all you have been doing in this thread is bashing Rob Babcock and the Raptors... Say something credible, back up your opinion... I mean I can respect someone else's opinion if they back it up somewhat... Even if I don't feel they are right, however if what you are saying seems like mindless babble I'd prefer you wouldn't post at all...
Thank you...
-lata
p.s. I think that all the "The ATLien" harrassing has gone too far... lets lay off a bit...
