Blazer’s Edge :: A Site by and for Blazer Fans
The Raptors bring back a team essentially unchanged from last year. Their party line is going to be, “Our young guys are naturally going to be better so we’re going to be better overall.” As we’ve said time and again here, young guys don’t automatically get better and even when they do that doesn’t mean that they’ll fit in automatically. You have to believe that Boston is a serious threat to leapfrog Toronto in the division. A healthy, experienced Nets team will also give them a run for their money. The Raptors really need to move into 50-win territory to make a statement. I’m just not sure they’re set up to do it yet.
