I am choosing to do players only with an honourable mention to top coach/front office person for each team. They don't get a face but are added to the plaque visitors read.
49ers
Joe Montana
Jerry Rice
Patrick Willis
Ronnie Lott
Honourable mention to Bill Walsh (coach)
Raptors
Vince Carter
Kyle Lowry
Kawhi Leonard (this is tough because only one season but he has to be there)
Chris Bosh
Honourable mention Masai Ujiri (GM, Pres)
Blue Jays
Roberto Alomar
Roy Halladay
Jose Bautista
Dave Steib
Honourable mention Paul Beeston (GM, Pres)
I would replace Bosh with DeRozan on that Raptors roster. Just a personal opinion, I rank DeRozan higher than Bosh on my all time great Raptor list. I almost didn't want to put Kawhi on there, but he did bring us the chip, and that is something.
reply
I respect that. I thought about that but I decided on Bosh because he was the guy during his era with the Raptors whereas Derozan was a duo with Lowry and I already selected Lowry. But I don’t think you can go wrong.
reply
Patrick Willis over Bill Walsh surprised me.
I think Kawhi might actually be remembered primarily as a Raptor. It's a more extreme version of the conversation I was having with Public about Randy Moss.
reply
I didn't want to take Lott and not Willis and I wanted both offensive and defensive players on my mount so I had to leave the coach out for the purpose of balance.
