with the vast improvement of the rest of the league, i dont think the raptors will be as competitive.. buut all these investments other teams are making are short term while the raps have a long term plan that has the potential to make us really really really good. (val at c, ed at pf, derozan at sg, bayless at pg) is a great young block (offensively and defensively!!) moving forward and im so super excited at how these kids are going to improve! add in a veteran sf and we have a team that will surprise so many people in a few years! until then i think we are going to have 18 wins this season :P

15 games a week would be hundreds of wins. roflIf Your Uncle Jack Helped You Off An Elephant, Would You Help Your Uncle Jack Off An Elephant?

Last season when injuries hit. we didn't have the depth and experience coming off the bench. This season we have older and experienced players who can come off the bench. I'm trying to say that we will all of the sudden win because or our bench but we can rely a little bit more on the guys coming off the bench this season.

I'm not expecting the signees (escept Forbes) to offer much on the court. It is the professionalism and experience they can offer the young professionals off the court I am most looking forward to (practicing hard, being on time, getting in the gym, diet, rest, not staying in the clubs until 5am the night before a game, etc). Maybe I'm totally out of touch what truly happens on an NBA team but that is what I hope.

I feel that some teams will stumble given the condensed season. I can see Boston dropping as it is hard to imagine the big three not missing a lot of games. Casey will hold players accountable, and the older players now with the team will do their part. Lastly I am looking at improved seasons for several of the players given time in the weight room or improving their games.
I vote for 25 wins this season.
