With a very energetic two-year old to chase around, there is not a lot of time to surf the web for Raptors news. So I need to pretty much just focus on the other Toronto Raptors blogs and hope they do the digging and writing for me. That is how I keep track of what is really going on. Can’t use ESPN or any other American source because they just don’t care about the Raps.

The other day I was reading a post over at Raptors HQ that focused on next season’s draft. It is a lot of fun to speculate and even fantasize about who could be a Raptor next year. The class could be extra stacked if there is no season. So how will it all work out?

Here is a bit from the Raptors HQ post called -The Lockout and the Toronto Raptors’ 2012 Draft Hopes

Like to see Austin Rivers throwing up lobs to DeMar DeRozan?

How about Harrison Barnes slicing into the paint or Jared Sullinger dominating on the low blocks?

Or maybe you’re more of a fan of multi-position prospects. If that’s the case then a Perry Jones III, or an Anthony Davis type probably works best for you.

The point is there’s no shortage of blue-chip talent in the upcoming draft class and we haven’t even mentioned names like Quincy Miller, Michael Gilchrist or Marquis Teague.

But what if there is no draft?

That’s the million dollar question I want to discuss today, because how the NBA deals with such a situation has a huge impact on the Raps, and their ability to get the ship back on course so to speak.

I would love to see Harrison Barnes wearing the Dinosaur but could that good luck really happen?

Anyways, check out Raptors HQ, Raptors Republic and all the other Raptors blogs to really find out what is happening in the T-Dot.
