Is 4-19 so far fetched yet again?

Now with the win over Utah, 4-19 is unlikely. They'll have to go 1-15 over the next 16.
However, looking at the schedule, how many games do you consider winnable? I bold the ones I think should be gimmes.
That would leave the Raptors 8-27 before heading in to the cushy part of their schedule. At this point the season is long lost.
So while 4-19 might not happen, I still don't think the .500 is realistic if you are looking at their record after 23 games or 35 games.Heir, Prince of Cambridge

The Bobcats have been historically inept against the entire NBA yet have always seemed to hold their own against the Raps. At this point, no games are gimmes for this team.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

It is the same with Charlotte, Sacramento, etc.
I think the problem Toronto runs in to is they have not thought of themselves as a bad team and therefore expect a gimme versus a bottom feeder. They aren't good enough to have a gimme any night.... well except maybe versus Utah lol. Although I expect the rematch with Utah will be met with a team looking for redemption.

Utah with Burke and Haywood have 2 players to run the offence and with Favors and Kanter on the blocks, the size to battle for boards and score through the post. Utah will win the next game, regardless of whether the Raps have sold off everything or not. Utah has a bright future with a good pick coming in (Glenn Robinson 3 would fit nicely on that team) and a young talented nucleus.
They have good pieces but they don't appear to have that elite talent - yet.
I think Parker would be awesome in Utah.
