Raptors All-Time Franchise Ranking

[Apollo]

This comes from a site I'm unfamiliar with but they're ranking based achievements and scoring they identify here:

Point Breakdown:

Division Championship: 5 Points
Conference Championship: 10 Points
League Championship (1948-1965): 15 Points
League Championship (1976-Present): 20 Points

They then average out the scores based on the number of years in the league to put each team on even footing. It's imperfect but interesting.

The Raptors rank 25th overall. That's ahead of the Grizz, Clippers, T-Wolves, Hornets & Pelicans.

25. Toronto Raptors: 0.52 Points

Established In the NBA: 1995
Former Cities/Names: N/A
Greatest Player In Team History: Vince Carter

The Raptors, Canada’s only current NBA franchise, has seen some success in its 19 years in the league. Two times the Raptors have won their division but they’ve failed to go further than that, yet. Toronto can’t feel too bad about its position on this list considering their age. They haven’t had quite as much time to rack up points as others, but then again they haven’t been particularly great.

Personally I would do the ranking calculations differently in terms of achievements & weightings (for example: division winners would score zero if I were doing it but I would add in playoff appearances and that would receive a score determined by the difficulty to make the players; probability). Either way this is an interesting topic.

Where do you see the Raptors all-time?

if they gave points for odd video tributes and embrassing banner raisings Raps would place higher

I thought we'd be last or very close to it lol

[jerome]

jerome thinks the raptors are definitely better than the bobcats (the hornets are now the pelicans), T-wolves and the cavaliers (they had some good teams in the past but always pathetic). However this could change very quickly in a couple more seasons.

Masai is going to turn this around.

I see him being a longstanding GM like Kupchak or RC Buford and leading this franchise out of obscurity and into the limelight. He's young too and he's got a great basketball mind.
