The Toronto Raptors are G, they might under perform some nights, they might not live up to expectations, they might get cheated out of a playoff spot, but in the end we definitely have guys on our team that want to do well, that show heart, emotions, that will carry a team if need be, but always remember they are representing our Country, and keeping them competitive...there hasn't been ONE particular memorable moment this year, however watching these guys grow into stars, playing on an elite level before the all star break, proving David Stern, Mike Brown and Lebron James wrong when they show up ready to play in a few weeks in Game 1. But the fact that we have been relatively Competitive this year has been the highlight of the 09/10 season, we can't handle another losing season without playoff ball. The Raptors making the Playoffs will be G!

Golden = watching our golden boy Chris Bosh abuse other big mans, posting continuous double-doubles, monster stat lines to prove the NBA wrong about the raptors and their SOFT image

Glorious = Teams we havent been able to beat in the past couple years: mavs, spurs, lakers, cavs...teams considered 'elite': magic, hawks...taking the best teams to the brink of defeat: nuggets, lakers again have all seen first hand, the raptors can play with ANYONE when their ready.

What is G? It is the Heart, Hustle, Soul of the Game = Watching the emotions when the raptors suffer a heartbreaking lost, feeling for the country when the raptors underachieve, constantly being bullied by the refs & head office because we're a Canadian Team, Grinding out wins to be in a playoff position so late in the season...

Whats G?
It's the emblem of a warrior = chris bosh has been our warrior by representing ALL of Canada, putting this team on his back, willing us to victories

Its the swagga of athletes = the swagga bosh and jarret jack played with all season, these two have shown the most heart this season, their intensity is on a completely different level than the rest of the raptors.

The champion..& the dynasty = the day the raptors outplayed the greatest dynasty in the NBA. Without a doubt, the Lakers have been the most dominant sports team in the NBA, and watching our raptors defeat them infront of us in Toronto, will definitely go down as the biggest post-Carter win.

It's gifted = Being blessed to have a Canadian team, full of players who are playing for our country with pride, although the rest of the league has been against the country, these players play for the name on their jersey, not the name on the back

Genious = The amount of work Sonny Weems has put into his game has definitely shown, he does not want to be another bench player that fades away overtime, he is slowly making his case to be a solid starter

**on a side note, I really respect what you are doing man, even if you don't pick me, thanks for looking out for the less fortunate fans on realgm, your definitely my Hero!

truly speaking, Chris Bosh IS the Toronto Raptors. I'm not gonna lie, I'm still sad over Carter leaving, because our future looked awful, if you can recall all those D-League call ups, signing ROD STRICKLAND (LOL). We've seen Bosh mature and elevate his play to NEAR-superstar level. He is simply dominating opposing big men now. Bosh knows Toronto loves him, and he obviously loves the city, or else he would have asked for a trade when we were struggling. He knows Colengelo is building the team around him, and if he were to leave, he's looking for a championship, and if he can't lead HIS team as the number one option deep in the playoffs, how would that help his ego if he's going to a contender just to be the 2nd or 3rd option. Bosh is a smart man, and business ALWAYS comes first, solely for the fact that we can offer him the most money, he'd be a FOOL to walk away from what, almost 30 million? Bosh's heart belongs to Toronto :)
