Because we have a GM who is focused on winning now as opposed to signing players like Vince Carter. That's a move someone like Richard Peddie and his parade of incompetent GM's would have made back in the day.
Don't worry. You can buy a ticket to one of our home games against the Hawks and cheer him to your heart's delight next season.

Why so he can learn our new plays and give them away too?

He said he wants to
“It would be a cool situation,” Carter said. “It’s all about if the situation works, if that’s something Toronto wants to do — obviously, the fans kinda want that to happen — but it has to be something the organization wants and feels they need my services.”

That Lewenberg tweet was such a joke. That guy is the biggest hack around. Nothing Carter said could lead to that stupid interpretation.

Still think Carter can contribute more than someone like Melo, possibly more than Stanley Johnson as well.

Re: Why have the Raptors not signed Vince Carter ?
didnt want him, partially because of the way he exited this team but mostly because i dont want to be part of his farewell tour, seeing press questions in every road game about his career; some teams doing a tribute video/jersey swap etc etc.
want no part of the retirement tour.
