They said he was back in New Jersey for personal reasons, any idea what the deal is?

Quoted for emphasis.

One decent year where a lack of center depth made him look decent and he somehow gained legendary status because our C position was a revolving door of awfulness.

He ruined himself when he decided it was cool to cover your eyes with your forearm and dunk the ball...

He's a nobody.

I would be careful in what I say. Who knows what his personal reasons might be. It could be something bad / sad like a grandmother with cancer or something. Just better to leave it be if you don't know what's going on.

If you're referring to today's game only, then it's because he had some personal issues to deal with. Not sure about that, yet.

But if you're talking about in general, why he hasn't played much the last few years, it's because he sucks.
Good Lord, the little stoner's got a point.

I had heard he did not make the trip because it was a quick, less than 24 hour trip, and he was not going to be suited up on the 12 man roster. Little did they know they would only end up 9 players.

Four Reasons:

1) embarrassed as hell to come back to his home city and be part of the team that gets their butt kicked back to Jersey!! (loose by at least 20 pts.)

2) afraid to face Leo

3) come back home and sit on the end of the bench because you suck even though your team only has ten players dressed with a CDNP

4) watch the water boy come off the bench ahead of you in the rotation

Magloire has arguably been the worst player in the entire league this season.

I dont get how so many people believe in the raptors,they have zero to chance to win it all.

It would have been good for the ACC crowd to boo him, as the flipside of cheering Dalembert.
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Magloire is a fat soft classless piece of garbage...he's a bench warmer in the NBA...i don't know how long he'll be in the league for...

the guy makes me sick every time i hear his name...


we really need more people like Steve Nash in the NBA

Return to Toronto Raptors
