Top 25 All Time Raptor Players

[KeonClark]

Primo Pasta deserves a spot. Which tells you our short and previously sad history, and it also represents the fairly lengthy Brian Colangelo era. Primo took a lot of shots in Toronto.

Vince really broke your heart eh?

Yup and it's never going to heal
So glad he rimmed out on the buzzer beater last night lol

[The Great One]

If the criteria is WINNING, Vince should be well down the list ie
1/ Lowry
2/ Kawhi
3/ Siakam
4/ Gasol
5 FVV
6/ Ibaka
7/ Green
8/ DeRozan
9/ JV
10/ Bosh
11/ The Quitter

18. Amir
19. McGrady
20. Bargnani
21. Ross
22. Parker
23. Oakley
24. JYD
25. Powell

Powell 100% deserves to be on this list. He's been a big part of the Raptors playoff teams the past few years and was a huge part of the Raptors championship team last year.

Kind of weird to see Lou Will in there, as it didn't seem like he was around for all that long. Would have thought Camby, Curry or Marshall would have made it somewhere in the latter portion of the list, but the top of the list is pretty accurate.

[SkywalkerAC]

I def like the top 5. Could argue DeMar over Kawhi due to length of service, but hard to argue with results.

[The Great One]

My criteria? WINNING.

1. Kawhi
2. Lowry
3. Vince
4. DeRozan
5. Bosh
6. Damon

13. Green
14. Calderon
15. Alvin
16. Peterson
17. Christie
18. Amir
19. McGrady
20. Bargnani

Good list

That's not the right attitude.

Every list, everyone has to comment "horrible list! Why isn't x higher up, and why is y on the list at all??!!"

OK, now I'll go

Horrible list! Why isn't Ibaka higher up, and why is Lou Will on the list at all??!!

[planetmars]

List is pretty good. I would have found a way to add Bargnani and Marshall. Don't think I would have included Rose or Lou. Lou won 6MOY but again only one season and we got swept by the Wizards that year. Danny and Marc are different since we won a chip with them. So they have to be in here.

Bargnani had his moments as a Raptor even though we sucked and he was a big part of that. But he helped us score buckets when that was really our only calling card.

Here is my ranking:

25. Marshall
24. Oakley
23. Parker
22. TJ Ford
21. Marc
20. Danny
19. Bargnani
18. TMac
17. Christie
16. JYD
15. Serge
14. Boogie
13. FVV
12. Amir
11. A. Davis
10. MoPete
9. Jose
8. JV
7. Pascal
6. Damon
5. Bosh
4. DeMar
3. Vince
2. Kawhi
1. Kyle

[slaw]

Good list

It is, isn't it. You can quibble with some of the placements but it's hard to argue too much. My only issue is with McGrady being at #11. I know he went on to have a terrific career but his time in Toronto wasn't that memorable. Honestly, I'm not sure he should even be on this list.

I hate to say it but no Bargnani on the list does seem wrong. I think I'd probably have him on there somewhere..... maybe instead of TJ Ford.

EDIT: Oh, I missed Oakley at #15. The most overrated Raptor of all time.

[MixxAOR]

Good list

[The Great One]

Gasol, Ibaka and Green should be a LOT higher than 21, 17 and 20. All three were a huge part of the championship team. McGrady #11? lol. He should be in the 20's. Where's Bargnani and Ross? Bargnani should be in the 20's. Ross had a better Raptor career than most players on this list.

Kawhi should be #1.

[bertarapsfan]

JYD>amir too.

[bertarapsfan]

You and I have a way different view of gasols importance. I have him as the 3rd most important raptor last spring, after Kawhi and kyle. I dont think we get thru either philly or Milwaukee without him

We dont win Game 7 philly without Serge (who was also huge in the finals). We don't beat Bucks or GSW without Freds shooting and pascal drawing more attention opened things up for FVV and kyle. But im more commenting on JYD being way too low.

[KeonClark]

Junkyard dog is too low i get marc helped win us a championship but he was like the 6th most important piece and has played like 35 games as a raptor. JYD holds a much bigger place in my heart
