@@toshi8569 Monroe did better than expected just undersized against some matchups & Malachi just a young buck that gave it his all whenever he got called on & tryna make a name for himself as anyone should.. Sad to see how toxic people can get. Hating on players that play for the organization you cheer for. Mans was just showing his gratitude for players that put in work for the organization and this headass said not to include Malachi or Monroe.
Same. Was feeling it a bit with Delon's scene... then JV had to show up and murder me. Thankfully Big Spain's intro immediately reversed that. This series has some legitimately great direction behind it.
(this is the second time that they upload the video, so I'm gonna say what I said before) This video was very heartbreaking and emotional, to see these guys that helped the Raptors in so many ways leave, it's tough. And today, DeRozan is back to Toronto to play against the Raptors, he is gonna be always our number 10
This and Deebo’s return got me in tears. Jack said it best; “you can’t get too emotionally attached to these guys, because of the business side of the sport, you have can’t help it because we’re human” (not exactly what he said). That made me cry dude. You grow watching a lot of the guys, especially JV and DeMar. Then when they get traded, it hurts a lot. The team is way better now though. This is probably the best equipped team to contend for a chip. Always ride or die with this team. LET’S GO RAPTORS!
Thanks open gym, you guys always do a great job in catching what's going on behind the scenes. For the true Raptor fan this is a great treat every Friday 👍. Keep up the good work
We all gonna miss JV's smile and he even said good bye to OG camera in a funny fashion. The guy is pure class. All the best to JV, Delon, CJ and the rest. Lets go nuts and show Deebo the love he deserves tonight.
Commenting again! This was super tough to watch. Was trying to hold in the tears. All those guys, are just simply amazing men. All tough-minded, and have that mentality of doing w/e it takes to win. They are humble. You can see how much Lowry will miss JV. You saw how Delon was trying to hold in his emotion, same with JV by trying to make jokes, and smile. Will always support and love these guys! I'm wondering where was CJ.
Why.. everything must surround around Jlin? Just see.. through the championship eyes we must see whether or not Canadian team could every been let to win a rigged NBA title..
Everyone needs to take in the moment we're in right now in Raptors history. This is it, Masai has gone all in for this season. Say what you want about Kawhi out of lineup or questions about him staying or leaving. This is the best shot we've ever had going to The Finals. Masai has done pretty much everything to improve this team and we really have a shot at winning. LETS GET THIS!!! 🏆🏆🏆🌶️🏆
Both heartbreaking and exciting. Feels like you are losing family but very excited about the new guys. I feel we really need to cheer both DD and Kawhi big time tonight.
Wow, my sadness level really amped up when Pascal said "Damn, damn bro, damn, damn man," and hugged Delon twice, tucking his head into his chest. And then, cut to JV & Masai's call to him passing on the news. Dropping this on the same day DeRozan returned to Toronto to play the first time since the trade was kind of cruel. I've been crying on and off for longer than I care to admit
Wow thanks so much for re-uploading and making us cry again :) well I guess the raps rly are trying to do everything to make us bawl out today loool no but fr will always appreciate everything they brought to the team and wish them the best !! Lithuanian Lightning always
This by far was the toughest episode I've watched. Makes me wish Bell can fly down to Memphis to make an episode catching up with them. CJ ironically saying how sometimes people get traded on game day and he was one of them
Thank you JV, Delon & CJ. It is business but we have to remember this league is going with human-being. It is tough to see when JV and Delon said goodbye to the staff and teammates.. I hope nothing but the best for these guys🙏
TO ALL THE RAPTORS FANS ATTENDING THE GAME TONIGHT * PLEASE READ* As you probably remember, on January 3rd Kawhi made his return to San Antonio and was brutally booed through the whole game. American media has constantly gave us the reputation that we are unable to recruit stars and how the clippers can offer much more than Toronto. They fail to remember that the RAPTORS HAVE THE BEST FANS IN THE NBA. It’s time for us the fans to make an imprint on Kawhis free agency decision. Cheer as LOUD and as MUCH as you can to make up for all those boos he heard. Every time Kawhi touched the ball he was booed so cheer every time he has POSSESSION. When they announce the starting line up, CHEER. When he goes to the line, CHEER. When he makes an and one, YELL louder than spicy P 🌶. There’s no doubt Kawhi will remember a moment like this during his feee agency decision. So LETS GO RAPTORS FANS, it’s time to recruit our star 🤩 P.S still show love to derozan 😢
Does anyone ever look back and realize just how STACKED this team was. Like lmao in a decade people are going to look back at this team and be like "how did they not win the league?"
The teams would rather inform the players directly. But there's a lot of work that goes into these trades and there's always bound to be someone that leaks the info to Adrian Wojnarowski.
Oh man this was a hard one to watch- like Jack says in the ep, it's hard not to get an emotional connection to these guys that you watch and cheer for night in, night out. Especially through Open Gym you feel like you have SO much more context for the humans behind just the player you see on the court which made it even harder to say bye to Delon and JV especially. At the very least I'm glad we got something special back in Gasol- that part where he is introducing himself to everyone is a huge show of humility and character
This is amazing. I'm in East Africa, it's just after midnight and it's my birthday. First this, about to watch Lin on Inside The Green Room, and the game in a couple of hours. It's a good day to be a Raps fan E>
Love Marc. Great player and great addition to the team. He's as humble as they come. Hope Kawhi decides to stay and keeps this squad together. Would hate to see Marc and Green go 😭😭😭🙏🙏
Just like everyone else said. This one was tough to watch. I sure hope that all these players find success in their new uniforms. And as we saw, the Raptors will hold strong. We got this!!!
The NBA needs to start seeing this. Literally no player wants to leave Toronto, like everyone just seems heartbroken when they get traded!! Surely we’ll keep Kawhi, we treat our team like Gold & I love it!
If there are ppl who say that the raptors did not deserve to win the finals or it should have an asterisk......then f u. We risked it all for a chance to win .... we wanted it we knew what we wanted and we got it. Hate it? Good.
# of days without tearing up: back to 0
Thank you JV, Delon, CJ, Greg, even Malachi and Lorenzo.
Lol don’t include Malachi or Monroe

@@toshi8569 don't sleep on Malachi, watch him become a rotation guy on the Sixer's one day, lol just look at bruno
lorenzo is a joke lol
canphiljeff woah bro you took it too seriously
Man JV saying bye to the camera got me
Same. Was feeling it a bit with Delon's scene... then JV had to show up and murder me.
Thankfully Big Spain's intro immediately reversed that. This series has some legitimately great direction behind it.
Jeez. Me too. Miss you JV. Be well bro.
When Gasol introduces himself "How's it going, Marc"
Like everybody already doesn't know who he is. He came into the raptors with no ego whatsoever.
Just a causal introduction, like he’s a random stranger. Absolute class.
Lol i loved that too
What a great guy...like they don't know he's an All Star, All-NBA, former Defensive Player of the Year
John George big facts
You're not a true raps fan if you didn't get a emotional watching this. We'll miss those guys, key part to our success today.
Right never saw the day jv would leave
(this is the second time that they upload the video, so I'm gonna say what I said before)
This video was very heartbreaking and emotional, to see these guys that helped the Raptors in so many ways leave, it's tough.
And today, DeRozan is back to Toronto to play against the Raptors, he is gonna be always our number 10
Was the first one deleted any different?
@@saifulalam4108 no, the same length. Idk why they deleted, and it's not the first time they do it :/
I love how Marc is saying his name to Malcolm and Jordan as if they don’t already know who that all stat is. Humble player.
Marc Gasol is so humble that when he meets players for the first time he still introduces himself and tells his first name.
I love all three of these guys. But JV was one of my favorite raptors of all time.
This and Deebo’s return got me in tears. Jack said it best; “you can’t get too emotionally attached to these guys, because of the business side of the sport, you have can’t help it because we’re human” (not exactly what he said).

Jv, Dion, and Cj gave us everything when we needed it going to miss them thank you
Commenting again!

You can see how much Lowry will miss JV. You saw how Delon was trying to hold in his emotion, same with JV by trying to make jokes, and smile. Will always support and love these guys!
I'm wondering where was CJ.
I would give J.V. a demar-like ovation 😭👊
13:50 The foreshadowing of JLin though...
Why.. everything must surround around Jlin? Just see.. through the championship eyes we must see whether or not Canadian team could every been let to win a rigged NBA title..
100%
watched this all over again，still couldn't figure out why did they delete the first one, but i cried one more time.
Everyone needs to take in the moment we're in right now in Raptors history. This is it, Masai has gone all in for this season. Say what you want about Kawhi out of lineup or questions about him staying or leaving. This is the best shot we've ever had going to The Finals.

This comment has aged well...really well.
I'm not crying, you're crying 😢 💔
the guy at 8:20 was crying for all of us
I’m gonna miss JV and Delon :(
JV I’m gonna keep following your career no matter where 😢
Both heartbreaking and exciting. Feels like you are losing family but very excited about the new guys. I feel we really need to cheer both DD and Kawhi big time tonight.
THIS IS TOO SAD😖 I felt delons pain
I think the first one was deleted because the uploader was crying too much.
What?
probably lol
I CANT THAKE THIS MUCH CRYING TODAY 😭
I had 1 week, i thought i was ready for this episode.
Wow, my sadness level really amped up when Pascal said "Damn, damn bro, damn, damn man," and hugged Delon twice, tucking his head into his chest. And then, cut to JV & Masai's call to him passing on the news. Dropping this on the same day DeRozan returned to Toronto to play the first time since the trade was kind of cruel. I've been crying on and off for longer than I care to admit
open gym can you do a video about our team physiotherapist Amanda Joaquim and other background staff in the future!
All the feels. Emmy worthy season for this basketball season. Geez, all the ups and downs are killing me.
Missing JV already. The guy has a heart of gold. As for Delon, his agent wanted him out of here so I wish him well
Where did u hear this?
Wow thanks so much for re-uploading and making us cry again :) well I guess the raps rly are trying to do everything to make us bawl out today loool no but fr will always appreciate everything they brought to the team and wish them the best !! Lithuanian Lightning always
No other team like ours.....#WeTheNorth
No lie, the JV part got me feelin ways :/
This by far was the toughest episode I've watched. Makes me wish Bell can fly down to Memphis to make an episode catching up with them. CJ ironically saying how sometimes people get traded on game day and he was one of them
CJ had to go...Raptors were very patient with him.
Thank you JV, Delon & CJ. It is business but we have to remember this league is going with human-being. It is tough to see when JV and Delon said goodbye to the staff and teammates..
I hope nothing but the best for these guys🙏

Kurd4Eva101 saw u comment the same thing in the Raptors Digest vid
No1 in their right mind would ever Boo Deebo
HE IS TORONTO
Poetl is also going to get a nice ovation
Stolen
Good to see what goes on backstage
Im still catching feelings Feelsbadman. Gonna Miss Our Boys JV, Delon, CJ, Richardson & Greg. Once a Raptor Always A Raptor Thank U ❤ ❤
really cool that they showed this!
Amazing job fitting so much into those 18:30 mins! Including jeremy lin's grimace from losing yet again...
This changed how I see trade deadline
When Masai said he was going all in this season, man wasn't kidding. #InMasaiWeTrust
I'm a huge Raptor fan, I hope fans watch this because we really have no idea what happens behind the scenes, Great series, good job Bell
Why’d they delete the first video of this?
😥🤫😪 Good 😩😢😫I am not the only one tearing up...😰😳😰This is like deep rooted therapy for me. 🤔😢🤔Thank u JV, CJ & Delon. Keep doing what u do best💖😥💖
Tears....at the end we are all human...business or not...emotions will always show
Does anyone ever look back and realize just how STACKED this team was. Like lmao in a decade people are going to look back at this team and be like "how did they not win the league?"

Love that shot of Lin at the end of the Hawks game. Man, I hope he finds his shot soon.
get ready, torontos getting a championship! #northovereverything

"I'm not crying, YOU"RE crying!!!"
-me
OG keeps making me have these feels man
Damn… I am rewatching the entire open gym season 7 and this episode still got me… 😭😭😭😭😭
Not able to see JV plays definitely sucks
THIS HIT RIGHT IN THE FEELS 😭😭
this video was so well put together. keep it up!
It’s tough to see guys that have been there sd1 leaving or traded😥
This season of Open Gyn has been so emotional!!!😢😢
This episode still chokes me up. Delon and JV those guys were family, drafted and loved by TO.
This is amazing. I'm in East Africa, it's just after midnight and it's my birthday. First this, about to watch Lin on Inside The Green Room, and the game in a couple of hours. It's a good day to be a Raps fan E>
So sad to see JV say goodbye :(
damn this actually made tear up
14:57 love how Marc introduces himself as "hey, Marc.." . MANZ KNOW YOU DAWWGGG. But love the modesty and humble attitude
Masai needs to stop cutting onions around me 💔
The sacrifices you make to be a Champion.
@ 9:45 I like the way how when it gets to Jonas the sad song comes on
JVs segment was heartbreaking to watch a tear almost came down for the "future of the franchise"
Damn. This was a tough one to watch. Best of luck to the boys who are gone!!
Hahaha I found it so funny how Marc was introducing himself like "hello Marc..." come on man we know your name son!
Damn imma miss JV like crazyy....such an amazing guy, plus hes soooo good for us in the playoffs smh
I'm guessing they re-uploaded the video because of a flash frame appearing in the 3:18 mark that read "Music Courtesy of" It's now removed.
Love Marc. Great player and great addition to the team. He's as humble as they come. Hope Kawhi decides to stay and keeps this squad together. Would hate to see Marc and Green go 😭😭😭🙏🙏
Seeing JV go is really tough man. He was balling this season too...
I wish JV, Delon, CJ, Greg, and Malachi the best. Love having Gasol and Lin though. Go Raps!
I was expecting this to be much more emotional to be honest. But they had to focus on the positives and the future I guess.
Same.😭
Good win last night. What’s up open gym!
who tf started cutting onions @9:49
Jeremy Lin looking on and thinking "I'm gonna play with that team one day."
JV a tear jerker but can anyone doubt Masai anymore? what a job this guy has done. He really does want to win a championship
Just like everyone else said. This one was tough to watch. I sure hope that all these players find success in their new uniforms. And as we saw, the Raptors will hold strong. We got this!!!
Thank you Masai!
Grizz is my second team watching all their games. Caboclo there too. Hope they do well, I know it was hard giving up Gasol.
Wow this video is sad af 😢 getting traded like that must be so heartbreaking
The NBA needs to start seeing this.
Literally no player wants to leave Toronto, like everyone just seems heartbroken when they get traded!! Surely we’ll keep Kawhi, we treat our team like Gold & I love it!
Love this team
So tough to see our guys go.. but masai doing what he has to do..
I really miss JV. He was so excited to come back but I also like Marc. Wish JV well.
9:50 , im sad :(
JV, CJ and Delon all get rings!!! Still will be missed though...
I never saw this part of being an NBA player, this is tough. It’s like ripping families apart.
“Good luck today…..NOT!!” God I miss JV 🤣🤣
does anyone know the name of the background music/songs that was playing throughout the video?
JV though
If there are ppl who say that the raptors did not deserve to win the finals or it should have an asterisk......then f u.
We risked it all for a chance to win .... we wanted it we knew what we wanted and we got it. Hate it? Good.
I'm not crying you are
im not crying ok..... IM JUST FUCKING CRYING!!! 😭😭
This music though. Yall tryina make me cry?
link to music?
Great character guys
My heart. 😭
Who's cutting onions in here?
