Raptors are in that group of east teams who are contenders for the 6-8 spot in the conference(they were a .500 team last year with Gay,add in an improved/healthy JV and a fixed up bench,and this team is a low 40s win team in 2013-2014 assuming no big injuries happen)

I agree 100%.

Had Rudy Gay been traded to the Raptors at the beginning of the season, it's likely they could have made the playoffs in the 7th or 8th spot.

And with Bargnani gone, I look for a tougher team defensively. I don't like Psycho T at all, but as a player, he does add a bit of grit and toughness that the Raptors can definitely use.

Maybe it's my Toronto bias, but I will always look for Toronto to do well in any sport - especially basketball.

I think the ratings are okay here, a bit off maybe. I don't think the Jazz are the worst and I think the Cavs are a bit high.

I think the same thing. I dont see the Mavs being very good, and I htink the Raptors will surprise some people this year, I look fo rthem to make the playoffs. I also dont see the Cavs doing much either, and I would say the Sixers very well could be the worst team in the league this year, but the Bobcats and Magic wont be close behind. Im just glad to see they didnt go overboard with the Lakers cause of the name with the fool that coaches them.

Tyler Hansbrough is my favorite player and I hated to see him leave my Pacers. I really hate it that he went to the Raptors cause I dont like them, but I will root for them cause of him unless they play the Pacers that is. I never liked NC either and rooted for them cause of Physco T, I have followed him since his freshmen yr at NC even. If your a Toronto fan then you will grow to love him cause he adds toughness and he is a scrapper. When he would start for us he was a offensive force as well, but he just never quite felt comfortable coming off the bench. He should start for the Toronto so he should do well for you. If he ever regains his touch from midrange he will score quite a bit, but the last couple years he has really struggled but I think it has to do with not starting.

Cats better than the Kings? Ok

with ratings being updated everyday I dont see him staying too low for very long

They got Boston pretty low but that's cool, we'll make the best of this
