If Bosh is out what are your thoughts on a Raptors player wearing his number next season? I personally would like for it to happen. Thoughts?

If MLSE has no intention of hanging #4 with Bosh's name on it then why not give the number to someone else? I say go for 4 itAvatar: Riverboat Coffee House 134 Yorkville Ave. billboard of upcoming entertainers - Circa 1960s

I don't think someone should take that number right away. Give it a few seasons or so. After that, it's fair game. Unless that player is a star player and can handle pressure/make everyone forget about Bosh, the burden associated with that number and this team might be too much.
Took a couple of seasons before someone took Vince's #15 (Garbajosa).

Well, if the Raptors don't wish to charish mediocrity then no, it should not hang. Not saying Chris is mediocre but if you placed him in a Lakers or Celtics jersey for that amount of time it would be a no brainer "no".

If they have no intention of retiring it and he chose to leave then there should be know "do not touch" period on #4.Last edited by Apollo; Wed May 19, 2010, 04:32 PM.

If he chooses to leave, then he also gives up the jersey and number. He's done alot for the franchise and we can honor him some other time. We shouldnt really make a habit of letting ex-player's memories linger, show the other guys an the new guys that are here that we're moving on forward .Last edited by RikkJames; Wed May 19, 2010, 08:33 PM.
