i like this list. Would maybe swap Siakim for Calderon, Mo Pete or Amir at the moment, but Pascal will pass them (barring injuries)

1. Lowry - Accomplishments & Longevity
2. Kawhi - No one will ever have his playoff run, accomplished more in one year than any other Raptor
3. DeMar - Accomplishments, longevity, set culture (grind in offseason and get better every year)
4. Vince
5. Bosh
6. Siakam - Could arguably and will likely be fifth, was an extremely solid 2nd option for the championship team all year and did hit the championship clinching shot over Draymond.

After top 5/6 feel like its kind of pointless because it was all role players outside of Antonio Davis, Stoudamire, Bargnani, Rudy Gay

Kyle Lowry is the greatest Raptor of all time.

Kawhi Leonard is the best player the Raptors have ever had suit up for them.

Loyalty, longevity and accomplishments count.

I would argue that he has sacrificed more than any other player in Raptor's history for the betterment of the team whether it be his stat line, his body by taking charges and playing through injuries.

To me when considering all of these factors, it's a no brainer that Lowry should top the list.

Calderon seems to always be forgotten. He was on the team for a very long time!

"Joey, Joey", clap defense, FT% record, ATR and excellent water boy dispensing skills has got to count for something!

And to think Lowry was debated as the real goat a year ago, and now he is THE MF G.O.A.T

The fact that he rode in the parade wearing a Damon Stoudamire #20 was very meaningful by Kyle. He wanted to represent the entirety of the history of the Raptors franchise by bringing it all the way back to the beginning.
