    I would rather retire Calderon's jersey than VC's.

    Yes. I think they should retire or honour his jersey. He's easily the greatest Raptors of all time. And the guy singlehandedly put Toronto and Canada in the NBA map.


    Yeah he put them on the map, and he just as quickly took them off it. This guy paid no respect to the Raptors, he had a disagreement with his bosses and he quit til they shipped him out of town. Why should they hang his jersey for eternity? Retiring jerseys is for players that lead sustained periods of greatness and win championships, not for some clown dunker who never got out of the second round.

    No, I do not think we should retire his jersey. I used to love the guy too, I even still rooted for him in Jersey. But he had a terrible reputation with "leadership" and "effort" even long before he left, never won any major awards, and never even took us to the conference finals. Hang that jersey and it sets a terrible precedent for "success" in Toronto. The Raptors haven't even hit there first truly proud era, yet. It will happen.

    Hopefully JV can retire with a retired jersey or heaven forbid even an NBA title (2021-22 Champs?)

    To be honest, do we really hate Vince Carter that much anymore? I mean there are still people who hold a huge grudge against him for throwing out games, not playing 100% each games, quitting the Raptors and his attitude in genearl. I used to really hate Carter especially since he was my childhood hero when I was still in elementary school and I hated to see him go in such a way. But as I grow older (not that old but you get the point), the hatred sorta died off and I just don't really have much hatred for him as much as I used to. Booing Carter just doesn't have that satisfaction anymore. I guess you could say I forgive him or don't really care much about it anymore. Does anyone else feel this way? If so, do you think we should retire his jersey? Whether you like him or not, you can't deny that he's easily the best player to ever wear a Raptor uniform.
