Best Raptor Ever - 15th Bracket
Sure, a broad question and one that could never be answered. But then we never thought we would be a .500 team this year, did we…
What we’ve done is come up with a knock-out bracket of Raptor players with the intention of crowning one player as the “best”. Up to you what that means: best, favourite, cutest, lesser of all evils…whatever. If nothing else, it can keep us from stabbing our eyes out with a pen.
Each bracket will be up for a few days and you can vote using the poll buttons beside this post.

I voted for Charles Oakley, based on the fact that he has had a better career overall than Bosh. He’s won more titles, and more playoff games. He’s also had more impact to the franchise as he helped to elevate Vince Carter’s game, which in turn gave us more success in the playoffs than Bosh has to date. His leadership is irreplaceable and our franchise has not been the same without him.

Just wanted to add this — we didn’t quite know what we lost when we lost Oakley — and when we did we kept trying to replace him. His voice and leadership was great. For example people had hoped that Garbajosa would provide what Oakley brought, which of course he hasn’t. Even in this new era, fan continue to talk about Oak and how we need a guy like that.

Great player for us, but he’s been so badly overhyped by nostalgic Raptors fans that its hilarious.

My vote goes to Vincent Carter, he always gives 100% imo.
