    Lowry is very underappreciated outside of the Raptors fanbase unfortunately. But the true Raptors fans know how great he was and he always gave his 110%.

      Yeah i went to watch the heat down in miami and all i hear are fans shit talking him when he was on the floor. Booing when he was subbed back in, etc. I was also wearing a lowry jersey too LOL!

    Glad Draymond, Nick and I agree. Kyle Lowry is the greatest Raptor of All Time. Vince Carter is the most Iconic, DeMar DeRozan is the Most Beloved. Kawhi Leonard was the most Valuable to wear a Raptors uniform. Lowry fits in all three of those categories. Just like how unquestioned Shaq is the Most Dominant Player of all time.

      ​@@Big_talks. Can't be the greatest in just one season. He's the best player, talent wise, to ever play for the Raptors but greatness has to be sustained over more than just one season.. Lowry did that taking a lottery team on the verge of blowing it up to a team that was consistently a playoff team in the conference which led them to making a swing for Kawhi

    Lowry is the guy we truly haven’t been able to replace. Scottie hopefully will grow into that role but even when we had Kawhi, and especially after, Lowry was that guy who wanted the ball in big moments, could always make a play, and always gave you a chance to win. FVV was great but never truly filled the void. Lowry is the kind of leader every team needs to succeed.

      @@victorh4984 The problem with your premise is that it is assumes that the Vancouver and Toronto markets are the same. They're not. Toronto is a significantly bigger market with much bigger ties to major corporations. Toronto is, and was at the time, the financial capital of the country. Attendance was growing year over year, before Vince got there. Did Vince have an impact? Undeniably he had a big impact. Would the team have been forced to move to the US if not for Vince? No, because we always had the market to support the franchise.

    The only reason raptors one , was beacause Lebron left the east .
    Derozan is the greatest raptor . He was there before Lowry , when Lowry was there Derozan was the better player . Lowry even call Ty Lue when he was playing against him because he didnt feel good .
    Derozan was a better scorer. Till today Derozan is better .
    The only and only Derozan didnt win its because of Lebron James .
    Even when Kawai came .... the also got a great leader on that team .... Green .... and dont tell me its not True
    Plus we know KD and Klay Thompson was injured.
    So came to me with that nonsense with Kyle Lowry . I respect him and love him as à player but its 100% percent Derozan
