The 1996 NBA Draft was full of talent, and every player looked like they could be the cornerstone of the team, and the Raptors had a clear idea that they already had a "flying squirrel" and they just wanted to add another big man, so NCAA honor-sworn Marcus Camby donned the Raptors' No. 21 jersey.

Camby belongs to the midstream level on the offensive end, don't think about it or anything, the shooting posture is painful to think about, and the basket can pinch a soft persimmon with his body and good footsteps, but on the defensive end, Camby is a very good basket protector, he is tall, has long arms, good bounce, and outstanding defensive awareness, whether it is marking or assisting defense, it is the top level of the league, rookie season, Camby averaged 14.8 points, 6.3 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game, and he was already a top-tier block king in his first year with the Raptors.

The flying squirrels averaged 20.2 points and 8.8 assists per game, and is still the team's most fierce firepower, Tracy Murray, who performed well last season, was poached by the Washington Bullets, Doug Christie took the starter, performed well, averaging 14.5 points, 5.3 Rambo, 3.9 assists and 2.5 steals per game, and Walter Williams, a guard signed by Walter Williams who signed for 2 years and $4 million, has played well this season, averaging a career-high 16.4 points and 5.0 rebounds per game, these four players are the only four players in the Raptors who have averaged double-doubles per gameLast year's Oliver Fat Miller played only 19 games this season because of obesity, averaging only 6.0 points and 3.8 rebounds per game, and has not been at the top of his game since. This season's head coach is Darrell Walker, who has played in the league for ten years, and he has never coached before, but this year, relying on the Raptors' not very good hand, he played a 30-52 record, which is not too good, but at least not too rough, so the team's general manager Isaiah Thomas decided to keep Walker for a year.

In the 1997 NBA draft, the Raptors selected high school student Tracy McGrady with the seventh pick in the first round, I won't say anything about Maddie's technical characteristics, it is estimated that the national 60E McMill is more familiar than me, Maddy's first practice sport is not basketball, but baseball, and he showed amazing talent in the field of baseball when he was a child, but in 1993, Maddy watched the NBA draft, Anfernee Hardaway - he was selected by the Warriors as a scout, and was then traded to the Magic, became Chris Webb's bargaining chip, the big screen played Hardaway's wonderful performance in the NCAA, Maddie was shocked, and then regarded Hardaway as an idol, so his enthusiasm could not be stopped and shifted from baseball to basketball, the power of idols is endless, he began to imitate each of Hardaway's moves and add some of his own things to it.

In the 1997-1998 season, Maddie mainly played as a substitute. Averaging 7.0 points, 4.2 assists and 1.0 blocks per game, his role on the court was mainly defense, offense was not the team's first choice, Maddy was not the only player in this rookie class to play for the Raptors, in the middle of the season, the Raptors and the Celtics made a big deal involving seven players, the Raptors sent Zach Tucoba, Kenny Anderson and Ronald Jones The Raptors got the 1997 rookie Changsey Billups, Dee Brown, John Thomas and Roy Rodgers.

Billups' greatness goes without saying, but many fans don't know that before he won the Finals MVP in 2004, he was considered a parallel trader, and he changed four teams in the first four years of his career, injuries were part of the reason, and the main thing is that Billups was inefficient on the offensive end, shooting no more than 40% in the first three seasons of his career, and in 29 games for the Raptors this season, the shooting rate was only 34.9%, Such a performance caused Billups to have no self-confidence, and later he couldn't play the key shots that he was proud of, and before the season ended, Billups was sent to the Nuggets by the Raptors.

DeBrom is a good role player, and he has been a starter for the Celtics for the previous eight seasons before stepping back to the bench due to injury and age, but he has performed very well even as a substitute. This season, the Raptors have averaged 12.2 points and 3.3 assists per game, compared to Billups and Dee Brown, the latter two are just additives, Rodgers played only 6 games before being cut, and John Thomas played two more seasons with the Raptors, but has been the water cooler manager.

The biggest change for the Raptors this season is to send the team's hopeful star Marcus Camby to the Knicks, so as to get the "league's worst man" Charles Oakley, and John Wallace, Camby has only 76% attendance in the two seasons due to injury factors, you must know that this is when he is the most young, so Camby was labeled as a glass man early, plus Camby also released a word, he will not stay in cold Toronto after the rookie contract is fulfilled, so the Raptors can only trade him, John Wallace played in the league for seven years and had an explosive year that year, averaging 14.0 points and 4.5 rebounds per game, and has been playing more and more since then.

Oakley is a person who wants to focus on it, Oakley is 203 cm tall, serving as a forward or center, the offensive end is midstream level, and the defensive end can be capable, but Oakley, who came to Toronto, is 35 years old and has become the most honored veteran of the Raptors. Spraying two trash words and finally being pulled away by his teammates, if someone annoys Oakley, he doesn't bother to spend a few mouthfuls of spit, that's rushing up to do it, Oakley's last season was in the 2003-2004 season, Oakley played 7 games in the Rockets, it was Yao Ming's second year, Yao Ming joked, Oakley has fought more than he has played in his life, Oakley fights more to protect his teammates, and he rarely has direct conflicts with opponents, Oakley is not just a black old man, he is thick and fine, He is very friendly to the players of this team, especially the newcomers, and is the big brother in the hearts of all the players. Oakley is averaging 7.0 points, 7.5 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game this season, which is not easy for a 36-year-old veteran.

Although this season's Raptors have some turmoil in personnel, the overall hand is still good compared to last year, but unfortunately, the results are not so directly accumulated by the stars, last season's head coach Darnell Walker's first 49 games record was 11-38, such a performance is directly laid off There is nothing to say, the successor is Butch Carter, a point guard who has played in the NBA for seven years, Carter came up with a 5-28 record in the following games, although it is not glorious, But the Raptors management team was willing to give him a chance, and Carter coached the Raptors for another two seasons, including helping the Raptors reach the playoffs for the first time in history.

On February 13, 1998, the Raptors suddenly traded out the "flying squirrel" Damon Stoudemire without warning, according to Stoudemire's own statement, he said that he completely asked to be traded that year, there were three reasons, first he didn't want to stay in a rebuilding team, second Toronto was too cold, third he didn't want to go abroad, these three reasons are also the reasons why all players in the NBA market rejected the Raptors, therefore, the Raptors were three years after the establishment of the team, For the first time, I tasted the heartache of losing a mainstay of the team.

1998 is a year of qualitative change for the Raptors, they won a future Hall of Fame player in this year, he is Vince Carter, in the 1998 NBA draft, the Raptors selected Antoine Jamison with the fourth pick in the first round, and Carter fell into the fifth pick of the Warriors, the draft is not over, the two of them swapped owners, it is worth mentioning that Jamison and Carter are teammates at the University of North Carolina, Jamison is still Carter's big brother, Jamison NCAA has won numerous honors, Carter could only look at himself in the back, but as soon as the two entered the NBA, the situation was completely reversed, Carter was full of honors, Jamison took a back seat, and the two later married wives who were sisters, and they were also related.

As soon as Carter entered the NBA, he showed the ability to be a super scorer, averaging 18.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.5 blocks per game, with a shooting rate of 45.0%, a comprehensive and stable performance, and finally he won the best rookie trophy that year. The Canadian Flyers' dunk performance attracted a large number of fans for the Raptors, and it is no exaggeration to say that it was because of Carter's birth that the Vancouver Grizzlies fled from Canada to Memphis in a sad past.

Doug Christie became the team's second point of offense, averaging 15.2 points per game, but shooting just 38.8% from the field. Center Kevin Willis, who was signed by the team for two years and $5.5 million this summer, averaged 12.0 points and 8.3 rebounds per game, speaking of which Willis is the No. 1 evergreen in the NBA league, with a career that lasted for twenty-three years until he retired at the age of 46, but this season he stayed with the Raptors was already the last season of his career, before he averaged more than 10 points per game every year except for his rookie season, and he never scored in double figures in the next nine seasons.

Alvin Williams moved from the Trail Blazers this season, averaging 3.2 points per game in 13 games, Alvin Williams was a second-round pick last year, but at 196 cm tall he was the No. 1 spot, and he finally exploded in 2001 after a few seasons with the Raptors.

Maddie is still a substitute in the second year of his career, averaging 9.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.3 blocks per game, showing a very versatile performance, defense is still the foundation of Maddy's life, at the beginning of the season Maddie did not play well, that is, commonly known as the "rookie wall" Butch Carter, the kind-faced old coach gave Maddie a lot of encouragement, the young Maddie listened to Butch Carter's words, and privately became him "Uncle Butch", and Carter, Maddie unexpectedly learns that she and Carter are still cousins! Carter also gave Maddie a lot of advice, as well as Kobe, it was Kobe's second year with the Lakers, and the friendship established between the two in high school continued in the NBA. This season, the Raptors have a 23-27 record, a team-high 46% win rate, and Butch Carter was able to stay on for the next season, and the next season, the 1999-2000 season, the two Carters - Butch Carter and Vince Carter jointly led the Raptors to the first playoff game in team history!
