so what happened with jrue holliday? why did he slip out of the lottery?

Doug -

No really good fit, teams wondered about his long-term position, nothing extraordinary

Doug, You had said last night, during the draft, that the Raps were looking to pickup a second draft choice in the mid-1st round range. Did you hear any chatter that there was ever any thought given to picking up a 2nd round choice last night?

11:29

Doug -

They tried to get a pick in the 16-22 range but couldn't find (a) a seller or (b) a player they wanted bad enough to spend $3 million to get and then have to pay for three guaranteed years.

Did anyone other team seriously consider taking DeRozan before the 9th pick?

11:30

Doug - The Raptors were really worried that Minnesota would grab him after Rubio and if the Wolves took Curry, that Golden State would give him a long look.
