After much buzz, intrigue, and talk of "smokescreens" in the sports media about the NBA Draft, the Raptors did exactly as they said they would do: select Andrea Bargnani. The discussion boards were rife with conspiracy theories and desperate attempts to break a big story (for example, Seattle's Earl Watson was seen buying a tie in Toronto!).
The most entertaining aspect of the hullabaloo is that General Manager Bryan Colangelo pretty much all along has said what he'd do and let everyone else second-guess, elaborate and obfuscate the situation. Then, he does as he said he would.
As a species, we like to overcomplicate things. Especially, if you're posting on bulletin boards and arguing about the maturity of people snickering at Rudy Gay's last name.
