            well, so far we have multiple people predicting Toronto will get a 7th seed or better with a sub-.500 record, something that has only happened once in the Eastern Conference in the past decade, so it's not like we don't have our fair share of wacky

              All right all you prognosticators, clairvoyants, and stats junkies. This is your chance to earn achievements, accolades, awards (imaginary), and most importantly establish your credibility with teenagers and bored office drones everywhere.

                1.) Who will be the most improved Raptor? i.e played here last season Rudy Gay, JV close second

                2.) Pick one guy to be moved at the trade deadline. DJ Augustin once Buycks owns that backup spot

                3.) What will the season record be? 45-37

                4.) Will they make the playoffs? Yes

                5.) What seed will they be? 6th

                6.) How far will they go in the playoffs? Championship (fuck it I'm going in)

                9.) Pick one rotation player who falls completely short of expectations DeRozan. He'll be aight though just not a huge improvement, I think JV Rudy and Lowry (contract year) are going to be a hell of an offensive trio

                11.) How many times will Amir Johnson roll his ankle? Same number of times he gets ejected

                          Nick Nurse until the offseason. Almost impossible to say who it would be long term until you see who's available next summer.

                            They have a defensive assistant, and a guy they plucked from Rick Adelman's staff, in Bill Bayno.

                            I'm actually surprised I'm the only one who has picked him and not Nurse.
