First off, I am not a pro tanking advocate. You can say what you want, but unless youve watched more than the last two weeks of the Cavs season, you would know they have been pretty competitive given their situation. The Cavs are at the end of season two of their rebuild, you guys have been rebuilding since God knows when and are still unsuccessful because of a ton of bad decisions. The reason the Raptors havent been competitive is because a series of bad draft picks and overpaying marginal players.
Bosh
Arujo
Bargnani
Villanueva
Graham
Trading Hibbert
Derozan
Big V
If you really want to talk about losing cultures, reference this before you say anything about the Cavs:
Last two playoff appearances (only two in a decade)
2008 -- lost to Orlando, 4-1, first round
2007 -- lost to New Jersey, 4-2, first round
Overpaying Turkoglu is the biggest mistake ever. That signing crippled their cap.
..and anything you want to say about the lows of the Lebron James departure, just remember as bad as it got, his highs and successes were 10x that of anything the Raptors experienced with Bosh.
