How come Raptors only draft international players??? WTF

[Apex]

Breh hes 4-5 years away IF IF he ever even comes up here,how does that make sense ?
We need a young piece to play with pieces were grooming right now NOT a project that more than likely will never play ball here and by the time its even considered MAsai will be long gone from this team...

I dont give a shyt about a wing span,theres a reason only 2 teams looked at him...This team needs young pieces that can play now not in 5 years...

1) It was 3-4 teams
2) He's going to be on the roster next season.
3) Just chill, there's still FA to get our ready-now guys.

25,000 Brazilians for your entire country, that's really not a lot.

canadians trip me out when they say they got a lot of anything but white people

I be like my fukkin STATE has more people than your entire COUNTRY

you the biggest yes man of ujiri. that guy is shyt at drafting. remember nathan jawai? that was masais work. remember solomon alabai the nigerian? that was masais too. I don't like him drafting these internationals, masai has his own agenda like tonight drafting a guy from basketballl without borders. last year he tried to get that greek guy.

smh after colangelo i thought we would street away from these international guys who have a 70% chance of being a bust.

Toronto is the most multicultural city in the world, idiot.

finished watching the post-draft presser, Masai looks he has buyers remorse.

what the fukk is going on in Toronto.

Damn it...i thought this was just a nightmare and i would wake up

Honestly there's no way to defend this draft pick, we picked a completely unknown guy that no one in life has heard of
Brazilian KD? The disrespect..
This is not the time to be picking random shyt when you're supposedly trying to be competitive. We left Napier on the board I'm disgusted

 

[KushSkywalker]

Toronto is an international city. My guess is international players fit in well there. There are tons of Indians and Chinese in Toronto by the way....

fixed

For real breh. Especially after the season they just had. Get someone known or at least valuable for a future trade. Who the fukk is this kid? And why are people comparing him to the MVP KD? I'm sure if he was as good as KD, more than 2-3 teams would have been checking for him.

You speak the truth breh!

Ok thats why I can't walk a block downtown without seeing a brazilian flag or soccer jersey this time of year. Trust me Tornoto has a lot of brazilians. I understand enough Portuguese to pick them out even inf they're not draped in green and yellow.

That said, there's a little of everything in toronto. It being an international/multicultural city is a fact not a talking point.

because people are dikkriders. There are guyanese people supporting brazil...indians, trinis etc etc

 

[Ohene]

Rodney Hood was the pick. fukk Napier.
It was Hood!

If I was Kyle Lowry I'm saying fukk it and leaving

 

[NYC Rebel]

Bargs was 8 years ago, Val was the right pick and no one knows anything about this guy,

Derozan is not international, Ross is from the US, and everyone else they've ever drafted has been American,(except for 2nd round stash guys and the almighty Aleksander Radojivec).

But a realer answer is that a lot of Americans only like T.O for one night or Caribana, and they prolly feel that wont be an issue with euros/south americans
