Hopefully JV can claim that title from him sooner than later.
Sadly making the playoffs for two consecutive years is pretty much near the top of the Raptor success ladder.

The way you win playoff rounds is by having a good roster, good coaching, some luck, in terms of health issues, and some luck in terms of the final few games of the season and what teams out of the playoffs win games form teams in the playoffs. Blaming a single player for a teams performance is just silly. The list of great players who never came close to winning a playoff round with one team and then went on to do extremely well is a long one. By the same token there are a ton of HOF players who never won a championship or even made it to a finals appearance. Is that on them?
Just a silly thing to say.

+1 to Puffer.
Just because Raps never won anything in the CB4 Era, doens't change the fact that he was a good player. There's once in a generation players that have that ability to take a team onto their shoulders. Just because CB4 wasn't one, doesn't mean he was a "bad" player, by any means.

Gay (and Lowry) scare the poop out of me with the off-season physical transformation.
It reminds me of a former Raptor entering his contract year before bolting to be the third wheel.
Just saying.....
The thing that makes me less nervous is that Bryan is gone. MU may use their play as trade bait, but we don't really know what he wants to do either.

This is good for the team overall this year because their play can help push them into the playoffs.. but that could create a fool's gold situation where once they get their big fat contract they can regress to their means.. The Raptors will then be stuck with two overpaid veterans on their core, and could then be stuck in mediocrity hell.

It's sad to think they these 2 "core" players could play great for their contracts, lifting the team away from it's rightful place deep in the lottery in the best draft class, then either bolt or get bad deals.
