Wasn't Carter a Toronto native? That's why it was a big deal that he left the Raptors, wasn't it?

My point is that shit happens. Just enjoy Wiggins while you've got him because you never know when it will end. Vince's time in Toronto ended way too soon for a number of reasons.

#1 being he wanted to get the **** out of Toronto.

Wiggins has already tasted freedom away from that hellhole. He's not coming back like Toronto sportswriters think he is.

Primarily because the team was run by a bunch of raging idiots.

If you say so. That will make the disappointment when he inevitably leaves (for anywhere, it doesn't have to be Toronto) even stronger.

Of course he'll likely leave Minnesota

I'm not a moron, dude. 99% of NBA players will play for more than one team in their careers if they last beyond their rookie deals. Even iconic franchise guys like Malone and Payton left to play elsewhere.

Wiggins will be here his rookie year, and if his career is as successful as most people think it will be, he'll be in line to make quite a bit of money in his next contract. That contract will be with Minnesota.

What happens after that is anyone's guess. But I can deal with two contracts for Minnesota. That's what Kevin Garnett did. Even Kevin Love (but he was a pink-skinned goat-****er).

Know where he's NOT going back to? Ever again?

Toronto.

That's fine. I don't really care either way. It's just...you seem a bit worried about the possibility.

No, it's just don't do your sorry-ass, "Buh buh my favwit team got swood by da fwanchise pwayer" routine.

I'm a ****ing Chiefs and Wolves fan. Don't act like you've seen it all and you're trying to be the wise old sage who got ****ed over by life to the innocent crackhead.

My favorite football team has a playoff winless streak that's even longer than your shitty baseball team's. You think you're special because Vince Carter happened? The Wolves have had shit happen to them that would turn you white, asshole. You'd be begging for the Vince Carter saga if you were a Wolves fan.

You're worse than a 49er fan telling me about Alex Smith.
