FVV, remember that guy ? he's about to get fined big time

[Dennis 37]

Remember him? I wish I could forget him.

Lots of yall are ungrateful. Post FVV Jr Fred played a huge part in our championship. Tbh he carried us when it mattered. Hit the biggest shots. In the most important game in raptors history. Pay respect

Yes he did, but after Kyle left it was all selfish all the time.

Don't go from being a team player to full of yourself and expect your championship contributions to be all fans remember.

I don’t know why he got mad. No foul and then he clearly committed one. I’m guessing there is more context from the whole game.

But this clip is hilarious

Not saying it should have been a foul but apparently the ref made available after the game admitted it should have been a foul, though a non-shooting one.

He should get fined for his trash play on the court

There is a context that everyone's missing but it doesn't excuse his behavior.

The shot attempt he made was an attempt to avoid the dreaded take foul because the Rockets needed 3 in the dying seconds. So the opposition bench was yelling at the defender to foul him immediately....sending him to the line to shoot 2 which wouldve almost secured the win. The defender hesitated in doing it... So fred sprinted up the floor trying to get the shot off to avoid the take foul (and possibly shoot 3 instead of 2).

He should get 2 or 3 game suspension for that though. We shall see.

Yeah, not sure why he got upset. Good no call especially at that point in the game. And the foul he committed was an actual foul. Glad we don't have to put up with his BS any more.

FVV's finger made contact with the refs while he was pointing. I think he's gonna get suspended AND fined. That's money down the drain for absolutely nothing. Dude had no case.

[kalel123]

It is interesting how the punishment for doing that to a ref is much bigger than doing that to another player....you would think the players are more valuable to the league since they are the product, not the refs.

Refs are employees like you and me and deal with tough work conditions that involve intensive amounts of travel

It's not that. Refs are the authority figures of the game. If you allowed players to push them and such there'd be anarchy

Agree. What's really interesting is that such things are a mystery to someone.

Also, FVV made contact with the ref, pretty sure if he did that to another player, he will swing back with a punch and FVV will get ejected and fined with automatic suspension for initiating so result for FVV specifically would be similar.

Unfortunately Masai ranked fvv higher than siakam

Is he gesturing triggering a gun ?

Looks so to me. He's always been a "lil" hothead

Yeah, I hate his outburst at the refs, no denying that. BUT there is also no denying that he was one of the integral parts of our championship run. Let's try not to be too salty

If it was only game 6 of the finals then I could kinda understand it.

But games 4, 5 and 6 of the Bucks series.....fred put up the hottest 3 game shooting streak from 3 in nba playoff history.

Better than any 3 straight playoff games put up by Steph Curry or Ray Allen or Larry Bird. He did that during his third year in the NBA.

Fred is like a litmus test for raptor fans. If you hate him or spam social media with hate for him....you are a loser who probably never fully felt the euphoria of our chip because of the darkened cloud in your heart lol.

Probably the only raptor chip in our lifetime. And these losers didn't fully feel it because their troll routine didn't jive with what happened in front of their face.

The greatest moment in raptor franchise history is probably the kawhi buzzer beater. The second greatest moment is probably that Fred 3 that gave us our first lead in game 6 with the viking yell.

If you didn't love that moment then you aren't a raptor fan.

Or...

...maybe you loved Fred and what he did to help win a Championship.

Then soured on him as his role and head got bigger and led to the most unwatchable selfish basketball.

It is possible to both appreciate what he did. Then dislike what he later became.

Have you ever considered the possibility that you have no idea what you are talking about? Why would Ime Udoka insist on targeting and over-paying a 'selfish' vet to mentor a team of prospects?

I suggest you watch fred's recent interview on draymond green's podcast.

[Duffman100]

OMG no, this forum has had it's fill of FVV arguments. He's gone, take it to the former raptors thread.
