Then it will be DeMar. It will never end. These guys love the days where we got bounced from the first round.

LOL we win a championship and suddenly the entire history of the Raptors means nothing

fool Carter is Toronto, literally nothing you could do or say to change that even after a chip after STILL will remember Carter as THE RAPTOR.

because we're trying to remain competitive not focus on some nostalgia season, Vince never would have helped us win.

He got out of the first round once with the raptors... Yikes, even DeMar was more successful. Get over it lol

Because he sucks. He runs in slow motion on D. Any team other than the Hawks would nail him to the bench.

Because he wanted to play in Atlanta because it's close to the broadcasting headquarters so he has an in for his post playing career as an announcer or analyst duh

Vince never won a championship but we did without him. We don't need him. Get over it.

We didn't sign vince for the same reason we didn't sign kawhi : they both wanted something that we couldn't give them

He couldn’t play a lick of Defense 20 years ago. Why would we want him now when he doesn’t offer anything else? Oh right, because he won that dunk contest in LA.

And don't fall for the mindgames from the sh*t disturber Loserberg. Masai didn't want VC and it was his onus to reach out, not Vince's. Which is absolutely fine.

Vince is still better than all the scuba masai brought in... out bench is total trash outside of fred and ibaka...

He just isn't a fit with the Raps current defensive identity. Almost everyone in the Raps rotation is a capable defender. The Raps look for players with flexibility and switchability. Vince can hit some shots, but he's a liability defensively at this point in his career.

I bet Vince has a better season than both Stanley and RhJ

Because eff him, we don't do revisionist history here... just my opinion

OG is a very good defender. Might end up being the best defender on the team this year.

Vince is a liability defensively.

The great thing about the Raps is that they don't have to hide anyone defensively anymore. That's a big reason why they won the championship last year.

We are the NBA Champs, not a joke team like the Knicks or Hornets. We acquire players who will further our title aspirations, not to sell jerseys. Thank God we have Masai and not jokesters such as Colangelo running our team.
