    Bull****, everybody lies around this time, it's all a big PR game and I love it :) Hell, McHale set they are happy with Lowry and all sources say he's being shopped like crazy.

    Wrong title. This is what is actually said:

    http://sports.nationalpost.com/2012/06/25/the-toronto-raptors-are-unlikely-to-trade-the-eighth-pick/

    Translation:

    Ed Stefanski confirms that they may indeed trade the 8th pick before Thursday and that he has not personally spoken to Houston about Lowry, but that's not to say someone else in the organization have not or that they will not trade for him before draft day.


    You gotta learn to read NBA-speak. It looks like English but it's really not.

    i never seen a blockbuster trade leaked so much details so early. it might not be 2 top-10 picks for Dwight as rumored but Morey might surprise us with another all-star.

    I hope they are already discussing Lowry for 6th which is a much more fair deal than 8th! That way, Blazers won't bid on Dragic who imo will be the strongest in pursuit of a PG.

    This is why they should go after that #5 pick. Take Lillard at 5 and if possible Drummond at 8.

    I remain skeptical that we can get two top ten picks. Lowry would only get you one, and then what? Not many of our players are enticing to rebuilding teams.

    For the moment I remain hopeful that we settle for Moving up once to get Drummond. Just so many fewer variables in that scenario.
