all time raptors team if they played in their prime in a raptor uniform? 15 man roster Starters Hakeem © ad (pf) vince (sf) t-mac (sg) rod strickland (pg) bench Damon Stoudamire (sixth man) jalen rose chauncey billups doug christie kevin willis (first big man off the bench) charles oakley donyell marshall reserves cb4 marcus camby muggsy bogues i'm just salivating thinking about the immense talent we have come in and out of here in the last nine years.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Magic Johnson:</div><div class="quote_post">No Voshon Leonard? Imagine what your team would be like had you had Primetime Dream.</div> who on my roster should voshon replace? i know muggsy is going to be the likely choice, but remember muggsy in his prime was the most exiciting point guard in the nba. btw, i should mention that mark jackson and chris childs were last minutes cuts from the 15 man roster.
Hmmm, seeing as you're saying these are the players while they were at their best, in their prime right? Well I'd still pick Voshon Leonard over Bogues, simply because of the fact he's so undersized, Claxton, AI, B Dizzle and Boykins always get knocked because of that. I'd have to say Oakley, he'd never really abound to anything. For awhile, Willis was able to be above average, I don't really see Oakley like that, in his Prime, Strickland wasn't ordinary so I'd much rather see him stay than Oakley regardless of VC liking him and the emotional veterancy he brought to the team.

Oliver Miller because we need a funny fat man on the team, and he'll be on the IL, you always need that guy to make everyone laugh.

Yea Oak shot horrible with us too, but he had the mouth, he was entertaining, AD is just annoying, but AD does have his gorrilla dunk.
no love for alvin robertson? He was a very good player in his prime, not to mention one of the best defenders in the league...

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting deception:</div><div class="quote_post">no kevin willis nor oakley? would they be on your ir? i'm suprised no one has mentioned mark jackson yet</div> Well, I kinda mis-read the "if they were in their prime" part of the thread. So id probably include both Oak and Mark Jackson, and leave Bosh and Curry off. Bosh may very well end up being a stud, but hes not even IN his prime yet..
