The Toronto Raptors Select Marcus Camby


I like the pick, but don't you think you might have been better off with one of the bigger, stronger Cs that were available?   Camby and KG are very similiar defensively. 

Not to worried about it, I think any time you have two former defensive players of the year patrolling the paint you can be confident. 

Do they block shots with their canes?  ;D

Crutches. ;)

Over under on average number games played per season for Marcus Camby since 2002?

To be fair ... though Camby has that "always injured" label, he's played: 70,79, 62 games the last 3 years and I'd say 1/2 of those 20 last year were b/c the Clips were tanking to get the #1.

  • I left Indiana. Because it was horrible.
The last 5 guys picked I had to cross off my list.  Well done, gentleman.  A blanket pat on the back to all of you.
CB Draft Bucks: Chris Paul, Dwight Howard, Tobias Harris, Zach LaVine, Aaron Afflalo, Jeff Green, Donatas Motiejunas, Jarrett Jack, Frank Kaminsky, Lance Stephenson, JaVale McGee, Shane Larkin, Nick Young

DKC Bucks. Also terrible.

My actual point was the number is 67.5...which while it isn't exactly ironman numbers its respectable.

undecided, but since we might look to go up-tempo we might consider murphy at the C, where he's played before.

Might be tough when you look at some of the big men out West.

Since a third rounder seems out of the question the Boxers are still interested in moving up into the 4th round from their 5(3) pick and will include later considerations (9th or 1oth or multiple late 11ths)

Defensively, maybe. But on the other end of the court, I don't see too many Western centers that are going to want to close out on Murphy for 36 minutes a game. Oden doesn't want to do it; Brown can yell until he's red in the face.

Houston likes the pick.
