What did the Raptors actually get for T-Mac when he went to Orlando?

Well, TMAC went FA so he wouldn't have to share the spotlight with Vince Carter, I doubt if he'd have done any better with Iverson. Good value for trade though

Actually, he arrived in Orlando via a S+T; I think we got a first-rounder in exchange. It was really just a case of "he's going, let's get what we can despite our HORRIBLE lack of leverage".

From what I remember, the Raptors had a strong belief they would be able to resign T-Mac, as T-Mac had "expressed" interest in staying. Raps fans made a lot of effort and showed much love (I remember a lot of signs at Raps games) wanting him to stay.

At the end, he made a fool of T.O. and bolted at seasons end via the S&T.

That's just ridiculous and you know it... he's still a vastly superior scorer, defender, rebounder and passer. Basically every aspect of the game.

There is only one ball

Some things just aren't meant to happen.
