My top raptors of all time in order
1. Vince Carter
2. Chris Bosh
3. Demar Derozan
4. Damon Stoudamire
5. Jose Calderon
6. Antonio Davis
7. Mo Pete
8. Andrea Bargnani
8. Alvin Williams
9. Tmac
10. Glen Grunwald ( I know he's not a player, but without him...none of the raptors success happens )
Pretty solid list, but (respectfully) I'd shift Jose below Tmac, Bargnani after top 10 but within top 15, slip Oak in somewhere, or maybe even JYD for his polarizing efforts, and I'd have to bring Lowry in somehow. Antonio Davis played a major part in their history; he's arguably a top 5 guy for them, all-time. They're all within the radar. I like that you bumped Mighty Mouse. They give him too much credit. He was awesome and he was really important for sparking their future, but he wasn't everything. And putting TMac at #9 is smart. His best years were still yet to come.

People keep saying bargnani has "talent" but has not put in the effort to become a good player.
Where is this talent I ask? All I see when he plays is a piss poor basketball player. Talent means being good at something. He's not good.
He was big, mobile, a good shooter, and had pretty decent offensive awareness. But lazy and soft as fuark.

Hoping to see the Magic get spanked tonight!

I'm starting to think that's why he's so hated is because he had all the tools to be a star in the league if he tried
Of course. He's a little byotch who wouldn't survive an hour at any good park. He would've done pretty well in Euro League, but in the NBA you should at least have a pulse. So, so, so lazy.
