The second pick turned out to be one of the most "athletic" player (what on earth does that mean?). I don't follow NCAA or the prospect stuff, so I'm not sure. Hopefully they'll turn out good.
About Carter, yeah I was sort of a fan too, and I wasn't sure whether he really wasn't trying or what, but when I see him move to New Jersey and played way better there, not to mention that he admitted that he wasn't trying in Toronto, I just don't know anymore. I guess I can understand his frustration...
Now that he's gone though, the fav player in Toronto is Rose, or Bosh (he needs to grow mentally in basketball). Peterson is more inconsistent than Rose, and Alston has too much temper sometimes.
ESPN says a lot of stuff it all comes down to our own opinion if we've done our h/w (follow NCAA or specifically our preferred prospect). I've seen Villaneuva play a bit just not enough to know how good he is. I'm not too familiar with Graham so I don't know much about him either.
Oh when ESPN said that he's the most "atheletic" player....
Athletic = A player who has above average speed and hops (vertical) combined.
ESPN also mentioned that he's an "All-around athletic" player meaning he's also good in offense and defense.
Rose is clutch at the same time when the season was on the line (when Raps had SLIM chance to make the playoffs) he was the one blew it. His contract is also taking salary cap space and with the new young talents brought in he's expendible.
Donyell Marshall would be a better fit for Raps if they decide to keep him (which I doubt).
I like Morris Peterson for his defense I think it's highly underated because people focus too much on his offense.
