Re: Better player as a Raptor: Bosh vs DeRozan
In terms of accomplishment then definitely DeMar. If I need to pick prime Raptors Bosh and prime Raptors DeMar for ONE game then I will take Bosh. Yet DeMar is still my pick for better Raps for what he accomplished vs Bosh.

Bosh. He played on both ends. DeRozan was a liability on one end.

This....I would rather have a prime Bosh on my team, but he's also unlikeable.Tor_Raps wrote:Bosh was the better individual player but Demar is the better raptor based on his tenure/success.
Bosh's entire tenure here seems like it never happened thanks to Bosh's douche comments after he left. Still annoyed me that he was doing tv for the Raptors during their championship run.

DeRozan wanted to be here while Bosh wanted the easy road to success.

Bosh was from the south and didn’t understand what he had. Do I blame him for wanting to live in Miami Beach and have all the “trappings” of what he felt he was owed? Not really.
Nobody bought Bosh as the third superstar. Heck people in Toronto still don’t buy him as a superstar. That said, he was integral to the Heat winning because he changed his game to account for Bron and DWade.
Bosh was a nerd who tried too hard to be cool. If he just doubled down on actually being a nerd, he would’ve ended up being cool. Just my two cents.
I believe in Masai.

Bosh was clearly the better player, there's no question. Demar played on the better team
