raptors should get oden in 07 and mayo in 08

by **cyanide** on Fri Dec 02, 2005 2:45 pm

That's what I'm hoping for.. crossing my fingers if we can get either one of those guys.

by **Bang** on Fri Dec 02, 2005 2:58 pm

So OJ and Billy Walker will go to the same college? If a good college team gets both of them, that team will almost instantly become top ranked.

by **J@3** on Fri Dec 02, 2005 3:52 pm

OJ and Walker are best friends from memory... I remember reading a DraftCity.com review of a workout they saw them go through, and judging by that Walker was actually the most impressive.

I hate OJ Mayo though. I downloaded a bunch of highlight clips, he's an arrogant little shit.

wren't Mayo and Oden supposed to be in this year's draft? Or are they just popular that I kept seeing their names in the patch requests section?

Boy, that would mean the Raps would have to tank both the next seasons... I don't think the franchise can survive in Canada anymore with performances like that of this year, so far at least. Better start winning some games and forget about no.1 picks... Babcock would probably use the pick to draft the next Korolev anyway... :lol:

Sorry guys, but the bitter truth hurts... don't forget that I'm a lifelong GSW fan... :lol:

Ditto that. I haven't seen them actually play, but considering all the things I've read about them, Walker is the more impressive one and Mayo is a tweener who'll probably end up with a Marbury-like career.

Bill Walker:

"Also one of the nation’s top volleyball prospects, Budinger will take his rugged inside game to Arizona"
What?

by **J@3** on Sat Dec 03, 2005 1:38 am

A rugged volleyball player :lol:

well I'm scared already.

My cousin (who I'm very close with is 17) he lives near San Diego. I go down there to visit my cousins and my grandma. I go about every summer. Anyway...I went this summer for about a month.

The point of this is that my cousin (Kris) he's about 5'9" and is the starting point guard fo r LCC (highschool Budinger plays for) and my cousin can play. He can score and dish like a madman. Him and Chase are alley oop mates.

Anyway...so I'm in the car with Kris and we're driving home and we're about there..and this Napolean Dynamite lookin dude pulls up next to use in a Mercedes and sunglasses and everything and Kris is talking to him and all that.

That's the first time I met Chase...and then he came over to our house to swim and play NBA Live and all that. Chase is fucking amazing..he can dunk..360s everything it's fuckin crazy.

But I mean..you would never know by looking at him...

But yeah..Chase is a natural athlete. Good at every sport...he's amazing at volleyball..but likes basketball better. He already commited to Arizona over th esummer.

i hope oj mayo blows out his fucking knees and has to have arthroscopic surgery on both of them and he can't play basketball anymore.... i've hated that bastard ever since he's made those fucking cocky comments

what were those comments?

by **beau_boy04** on Sat Dec 03, 2005 3:51 pm

when is Rudy Gay supposed to goto the draft?

by **Doobie** on Sun Dec 04, 2005 1:27 am

Ye what comments ?

I seen videos of OJ Mayo play as well as Bill Walker. I also seen the video where there school team fought some other team :lol:

by **NY Knicks** on Mon Dec 05, 2005 4:36 am

Rudy Gay is the man....I hate having to see him play on UCONN still. He is probably my favorite out of UCONN behind Ray Allen and Hamilton.

I actually met him with this guy Ishmail he is a nice dude.

by **Drex** on Mon Dec 05, 2005 7:17 am

Gay is the man

That sounds funny

by **Indy** on Mon Dec 05, 2005 7:44 am

Thaddeus Young is probably the most underrated player there is. In fact, he's definitley better then OJ, easily.

Yea he played against my team in this hall of champions game. he got 18 against us, but most of them were dunks and the game didn't even count for us anyway, it only counted if you won. ive got the chance to play against him while he was on the court and he is a great player. He is so long and athletic, but he really needs to work on his jumper though.

I got a chance to watch him play twice, and both times I was left with my jaw on the floor.

Probably the most unlikely looking basketballer I've ever seen.

Because he's white :?:

Well, and the red hair too.

Curly red hair, pale white skin, red freckles... does he look like a basketballer to you?
