If JONAS can become a superstar then the Raptors can become contenders imo because they have a great supporting cast for a superstar.

I don't think they would have drafted him last year with the given implications unless they believed he could be a franchise player.

I'm pretty excited, not gonna lie. If they add another piece (SF) great, if not they've already put together a team that's a lot better than last year.

I have high hopes for JONAS, hope he doesn't let me down.

by superstar I clearly mean like top 10 player. that's the only way I see them being a true title contender.

Ya I know. Idk, we'll see. He will need some time but he probably will be fast tracked as he has been playing pro ball for a few years now.

I'm not convinced that their done for this off-season either.

JaVale McGee is working with Hakeem during the offseason.

JM · 07-05-2012, 11:20 PM

Yeash, that must be frustrating for Hakeem.

McGee won me over during the Lakers-Nuggets series.

He just needs the right environment, better coaching, etc. The Wizards obviously didn't provide that. He has potential. I hope he remains with the Nuggets.

He's still a space cadet.

**Notorious** · 07-05-2012, 11:26 PM

Well yeah he's still an idiot.
