Nowell: I will make history as the best Raptor to ever put on the uniform

The guy was signed as a way to pay him more to play for the 905. Because the 905 has had no depth.

Why the hell would anyone talk about too many people thinking he was going to play in the NBA or be Isiah Thomas, like that was the reason he was signed

[2019nbachamps]

There’s a reason only a handful of short players have ever made it in the NBA

[Nebuchadnezzar]

Guy was an absolute joke. Maybe he should have left his NYC swag at the door.

[HoopAndTheHarm]

It's a typo. He forgot to add "905".

Apparently I gave him too much credit.

[Kurtz]

Now I'm not laughing here at the guy being waived, that sucks. But rather at the ridiculous statement he made, and all the clueless people thinking that he is/was good enough for an NBA roster at 5'7 with no shot.

People who gleefully cheer for an underdog's failure (especially due to injury) are surely winners in real life.

People who don't understand the definition of cheering, are surely well-read and intelligent, and definitely should be slinging insults.

Who did he hurt by making that statement? Who did he disrespect? Who tf cares if he motivates himself by trying to manifest the unlikeliest of things. You ppl like complaining about the dumbest things.

All the best to him he flashed some good things

He just made himself sound delusional. His choice.

Sure but hes made it further along than 99% of ppl who embark on this journey. Is he that delusional?

To pursue basketball and get drafted as a 5'7 player probably requires a lot of "delusion" in the first place. This mentality got him this far, he wants to dream big. I hope he makes it to the NBA one day.

When he says he will be the best Raptor of all time, and instead plays 4 minutes before getting cut, yes, he is THAT delusional.

This. Im quite sure he has manifested this by dreaming big and setting expectations for himself that seem crazy. But what he has achieved is crazy in itself

Cool. And when he was 15, 16 years old and yelling ppl he will make it to the nba, that sounds pretty f'n delusional too. I wish i was that delusional

Who is complaining? I just said his statement about being the GROAT was absurd. Man, you guys defend these dudes like they are your family.

The reading comprehension on this board is in the dumpster, no one was cheering his failure, no one said anyone was hurt, disrespected or anything. I simply was laughing at the absurdity of the comment, and the predictable outcome.

Some of y'all need some English 101 classes or something. Or just stop manufacturing outrage so you can jump to the defence of imaginary statements you made up.

Ok why are you so bothered by it? Your rant and calling everyone dumb is a hell of a stronger response than "why do you guys complain".

Nowell is a young guy. I think he will learn from this experience. It was foolish when he said it and looks even more foolish now. Wish him nothing but the best.
