    In my eyes he was on his way to be a superstar but now it seems that he is losing his minutes even with Dwayne Wade out. Will this keep up or will he regain his form from the past season?

    I hope he comes back to the player he was before, I was really rooting for him.

    I hope he gets his old form back... But the way he's playing it doesn't seems like it... He has the talent... But maybe he gets not enough shots... Or he should work on his jump shot... Look at the percentages => 32% from the field and 11% from downtown...
    Last year's stats : 41% from the field and 31% from downtown... Quite a change, no?

    Injuries, the lack of practice and involvement did this to him. But look at this way, he's stilla great defender and rebounder, lots of heart and effort. I love and admire this player, he'll take time but he'll get back on his feet, like Webber will, he won't end up like Carter. He's brave enough to take the risks and be less cautious.

    Okay now...easy with the Carter comparisons. To compare Webber with Carter is not the way to go with this one because Webber has been just as injured if not more than Carter. Carter may be a little drama king but give him some credit and don't compare him to Chris Webber who has been seriously injured in almost every one of his seasons. Give Carter time to get seriously injured in every season....and then make the comparison

    Sorry if I seemed abrupt, but what I was saying was that Butler will probably become like Vince, less offensive and more cautious. I was speaking highly of Webber saying he'd get back on his feet.

    Chris may have been injured in previous seasons but it never changed the type of player he is. [​IMG] We can't say that for everyone *cough*Vince*cough* :mrgreen:

    I think you are a little bias against Vince don't you think? First he's soft and now that we find someone to compare him to you start saying "At least he didn't change his game" Just pure hating on this poor boy.

    Just to let you know....Vince is leading the Raptors this season to ALMOST every win they ever had. If you hate on someone, hate on someone who the team doesn't rely on night in and night out for the W...like say *cough*Webber*cough**cough**cough*

    Oh give me a break..Is Vince the same since his TWO major injuries? NO...nowhere near how he was..and I do believe there are many more players that the wins can be attributed to brah..that big spike in scoring for the Raptors didn't come from Vince...and as far as Webber is concerned..he is(prior to this season)the Kings go-to-guy...so don't even try and play it like that pahtna...

    I hope Caron plays to his fullest...
    Correct me if i'm wrong but he looked to me as if he was the steal of the year and had a chance to be another Paul Pierce.

    Lets just say you take Vince away from the Raptors you can expect to see more losses, take Webber away and it doesn't even matter, they still win...does that make him the go-to guy? Is your mentality about winning all about scoring more? Obviously you don't watch Vince's games to see what he does. So until you see who wins the games for the Raps I would render your opinion uneducated. And please tell me who the Raptors depend on more than Vince? Right.....
