The Good: Retro uniforms
Things are pretty bad when the highlight of the year is a uniform change. The Raptors unveiled retro uniforms honouring the Toronto Huskies and wore them for six games in 2010.

The Bad: Hedo Turkoglu(notes)
Okay, technically his mammoth five-year, $53-million contract with the Raptors was signed in 2009. But Turkoglu’s fall from grace really took place in 2010.
By early 2010 he had drawn the fans’ ire with his poor production but things took a turn for the worse on a personal level in March. Turkoglu sat out a game with a stomach virus but that same night was caught hitting the clubs in Toronto.

The Ugly: The Chris Bosh fiasco
Speaking of falling from grace, the Raptors’ franchise leader in just about everything, Chris Bosh, finally said goodbye to the team on July 7.
Bosh spent his last season in Toronto at times looking like an MVP candidate, then looking like he quit, then sitting on the bench with injuries as the Raptors fell one game short of the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
