As a Heat fan I never knew who Kyle Lowry was. I thought “damn the Heat developed another undrafted gem.” But then I watched the game tonight and was shocked to see he was a Raptor. Im happy we were able to give him some culture and turn him into a great player, but it looks like he was a good Raptor too!
You should watch the clip from when we lost to the Cavaliers in the eastern conference finals, and LBJs, comment. Tells you all you need to know about these fans and country.
Toronto got a dirty fanbase. Great energy, bad sportsmanship. They were so despite to winning a title they celebrated when a player especially an All star gets injured
@@afiajiji9469 Not all 36-37 Million people were watching the Raptors. I know there's some fans of the Warriors, Cavs, Lakers, Hawks and other teams from Alberta and Manitoba and other provinces. Including me, I was born and raised in the area, but never supported the Raptors.
@@josecarranza7555 He donated to the Community, had charities, I think basketball camp. Was loved from the City of Toronto. Put them Hoopers on the map with a championship in 2019
The energy of toronto is just insane, lowry deserves all the love such a loyal man with pure grit and determination sets the best example for the kids.
Having watched 9 seasons of Kyle Lowry playing for the raptors the dude gave the most iconic,the most hilarious moment(with Derozan),has every raps fan screaming when he draws a charge and most notably every sweat,blood,every tears,every booty bounce (real fans know about that joke)to the team and my fav part is when he took a tech and got fouled out just to stand up for Derozan
forever a legend and canadian hero. he has always repped toronto and canada like he was born and raised here. he played hard, with passion and heart. a true leader and amazing person/player.
Greatest raptor to ever lace em up. He is the city of Toronto it’s crazy how just yesterday it feels like he got to Toronto. Would’ve never expected him to be the GROAT. KYLE 6IXSIDE LOWRY
I love how both organizations handled him being back. The raptors for the spectacle. The heat for the graciousness of sitting back and letting him have his movement. 2 class organizations
@@josecarranza7555 Being the greatest doesn't mean being the best. He stayed loyal to Toronto until he helped them win a championship. He did so much things for Toronto during his time there. That's called "greatness".
@@josecarranza7555 Ridiculous; Vince quit on us. Tracy was hardly here. Kawhi? the greatest season, but that was it. I think Masai is a better judge than you.
I was there last night. Man, I was close to tears seeing a Raptor icon, a GROAT. Kyle Lowry deserves all the praise and success. Thank you Lowry for being amazing!
Vince Carter was the GROAT growing up, it was Steve Nash representing Canada and Vince playing for Canada. Kyle was in a league of his own, he really deserved this and there was no one else you thought of when you thought of the raptors. Even his move to Miami felt so fitting, he did his time here, enjoy the last few years somewhere warmer man. Lowry is and always will be a Raptor.
Him coming back and the ovation and love he got just brings tears to my eyes and his eyes I’m guaranteeing. He felt it and his family felt the warm welcome back and we’ll deservingly so. Raptors best of all time.
@@starfishandroid You’re definitely under 13 and it shows. You should learn how to construct a proper and coherent sentence first before you run your filthy mouth
I was always critical of Kyle, but the guy came through and delivered. I wish he could have won a championship with Demar, but glad he still won one with us. Forever a raptor!
This man will always be my favourite player. He'll also always be a Raptor. I don't care what jersey he's wearing, that man bleeds Raptor blood. This was the most emotional game of basketball I've ever watched, including the amazing championship run. With everything that happened in Tampa and since the trade, this was quite the long awaited return. Then you get Freddy taking over one of Lowry's MANY franchise records playing against him. Man, this game was almost like a movie. All it was missing was the W. I'm not mad though. Lowry deserves it and I'm not afraid of Philly.
Didnt even know he played for the Raptors, thought Miami signed another undrafted gem before today but then again I didnt know The Heat had Oladipo either.
@@starfishandroid yeah those two names tie in together actually, they were trynna get Lowry from Toronto since before the 20-21 deadline but we ended up dumping Olynyk in Houston for Oladipo. Crazy how we got them both now.
Wooow!! Now Thats a TRIBUTE..well deserved!! ..When we first got Klow I was a bit shocked..didn't think he had much left..as we approaxh the playoffs, I see why He's the GROAT. great leader, plays hard on both ends, can hit big big shots when it matters...as a Heat fan we are LUCKY!!
Dope well deserved always been a fan of his when I met him he was on rockets such a humble guy talked to me and my cousin about hoops and how to get better for bout 20 mins
@@josecarranza7555 They are better players yes but Lowry gave it his all for the raptors for 9 season straight. He made basketball what it is in Toronto. Everyone in this city has the utmost respect for everything he did for us and he was like a captain for our team for many years and that’s why to this city he’s the greatest raptor of all time
People tend to forget that Kawhi only played 60 games and any good scorer would have been enough that year. GS was depleted and quite honestly, Kawhi cost the raptors a lot (Demar) and he could barely run during the playoffs.. Kyle built the franchise from the ground, Kawhi showed up for the prize, dipped for a new prize and ate his own uncle dennis sh!t in the process. The guy jumps around sniffing championships.. Lowry is pure loyalty.
If the Raptors didn't have Kawhi who would've hit the Game 7 shot? Who could be their lockdown defender? They wouldn't have Kawhi, just "any good scorer" and then they'd lose.
Retire his jersey don't let him fall and be forgotten his is the best raptor there is hands down. Put his jersey in the rafters above the raptors logo ❤️
They should have gave Kyle the mic for 2 minutes to speak to the fans. But I think the raps will sign Kyle to a 1 day contract when Kyle retires to give him a proper send off.
Heart & souls of the best Era of Raptors Basketball. Should have been in the M.V.P. discussions in his prime because of his overall impact on the ball club and the city. Easily Greatest Raptor of all time.
I so wish Lowry an Derozan could of finished her win Toronto man those guys this will always be in the Raptors Fans heart we love you guys. #lowry. #Derozan
Goosebumps man... what an absolute legend. He will retire as a raptor and one day have a statue outside Scotiabank arena. Aka Air Canada Center. Bruh I was choked up
At first he doesn't seems to be capable of being the one to save the Raptors. Then you see all the effort and all the little things he wins on the court and you start to love him even though he is not your top tier superstar. Then you start see how his game keeps improving and even start to become clutch and you think to yourself wow, we got ourselves a leader, an anchor, a captain here, we just need one more piece and we will get there, then we did! He was our cornerstone for years and till this day the Raptors still play the brand of basketball where you may be under talent, but you are always tough and smart, and nobody can get a easy win from us no matter who you have
Man, it's amazing how Kyle Lowry's career developed over the years. I remember him being nothing more than a Pat Beverly type player in Houston, now he's a multiple time all star, olympic gold medalist, & NBA champion. I guess that shows you that being in the right situation can really make a difference. Kyle's a first ballot hall of famer & will most likely be the first ever player to have his jersey retired with the Raptors.
this man really deserves it all. Heart, effort, toughness. he brought it all for our amazing city. Toronto loves you Kyle
