[QUOTE=TRex;368176]Seriously though, honour Rose for what? nothing against him, but what has he accomplished here??
I know, i read somewhere last year that the Raps were planning to honour or recognize their past this coming season. I could easily think of 10 former/retired Raps that are more worthy than Rose.
Not in order:
1. Damon
2. Oakley
3. Davis
4. T-Mac
5. Alvin
6. JYD
7. MoPete
8. Christie
9. Parker
10. Ford
Parker, Ford? Actually even Damon and TMac who were eager to leave don't deserve to be on the list.
Carter, Oakley, Christie, A Williams, JYD, MoPete, Bosh, Calderon, Derozan, Lowry. I don't think it's limited to non-playing players.Attitude Is A Choice.

Anyways, i forgot about Davis. He DEFINITELY should be up there. He was an all star for the Raps back in 2001. Taking Ford off my list for Davis.Mamba Mentality

JYD was not even that long before he was just a novelty act). Mo Pete deserves to be one of the highest praised. Other than the still active VC, Bosh and Jose, no one gave more to the Raptors than Mo Pete.Attitude Is A Choice.

I see no reason to honour him....because he was the team's first pick? Because he was our best player when we were a dreadful expansion team? No thanks.
*List of guys I'd honour before Damon (inactive guys)...Mo Pete, Davis, Oakley, Willis, Dell Curry, Muggsy Bogues, Doug Christie, Alvin Williams, Anthony Parker, heck maybe even Rasho too...Give me winners and leaders over chuckers any day.Last edited by white men can't jump; Wed Oct 8, 2014, 01:47 PM.

He played like a selfish young wannabe star while he was here and left in a way where we were extremely lucky we got anything for him. He didn't lead this franchise to any success, wasn't a high character guy, didn't do much in the city, and basically probably never saw it as more than a chance to put up stats and find a way out as soon as possible.
