The Raptors: 3rd seed in the east.
How the hell did this appen. Just last year, the team from T-Dot had Big Trade Brian in the front office, ruining them for years to come. (BARGS AIN`T A FRANCHISE PLAYER!!!) Now, we look to be the next great eastern conference squad. Here`s how it happened
BIG TRADE BRIAN COLANGELO
One of the differences between this year and last is the Raptors no longer have Brian Colangelo in the front office. This guy`s repetoire is full of bad trades that were flashy (Jermaine O`Neal for ROY HIBBERT, Shawn Marion for Jermaine, RUDY FRICKIN`GAY for ED DAVIS and JOSE CALDERON!!!). We brought in Masai Ujiri Who can get anyone out of town for HIS PRICE (e.g Melo, Bargnani, Rudy Gay) and whenever he pulls of these moves, the team ALWAYS GETS BETTER!LOWRY AND DEROZAN
Another major reason is Kyle Lowry and Demar Derozan`s increased touches. This has allowed them to blossom intoone of the best combos in the league!Overall, it`s probly just Coach Casey`s development, paired with player development (T-ROSS SCORED 51 IN A GAME! 51!!!) whatever the reason, it will cetainly help B-ball`s development in Canada!
