On the surface, this might seem like a very low rank for a player that average over 17 Points per Game in his near 200 game career as a Raptor, and in his lone complete season with the North he averaged 18.5 PPG, a more than respectable tally.  That being said, Rose’s advanced metrics were appalling and he let in far more points than he scored…remember Kobe’s 81?  A 0.5 VORP and sub 15 PER are not good tallies for someone who is supposed to be one of your top guys.

Before the “Red Rocket” became a fan favorite in San Antonio, he was a Toronto Raptor where he too was a beloved by the Raptors faithful. 

In terms of traditional metrics, the second season that Rafer Alston had in Toronto was one of the best of his career.  Alston had a career high 14.2 Points per Game and his 6.4 Assists per Game was the second best of his career.  Alston would later become the starting Point Guard in Houston for a few seasons but it was in Canada where he proved he could be a starter.

Charles Oakley came to Toronto and provided the toughness and veteran leadership that the young Raptors team needed.  He wasn’t the same player that he was with the New York Knicks but he was the force needed to keep the young team in check and was invaluable in that role.
