As long as this league allows "star" calls, then complaining about bad officiating with the league is a reasonable response.

Raptors send in complaint about Reffing?

I'd be shocked if there's a fine associated with this. The NBA has official self-improvement avenues, and I believe this is one of them.
At the very least, as mentioned above, refs will be more consciously aware of the previous discrepancies the Raptors were dealing with.

All it takes is to get noticed. In the very least, it's showing that we're not going to be push overs... yeah, some may see it as whining but every complaint is a form of whining...

Wake up and smell the coffee. This official complaint of officiating, if in fact it is official, will go nowhere and will have no impact on the officiating of Raptors games. It's just a formality, an internal process for teams to vent and complain.
Really now, if the Raptors want some respect, the best thing to do is go out and win a bunch of games.

Much ado about nothing. As others have pointed out, teams are constantly sending these things in to the league. The league might mention something to certain officials if they find evidence of consistently missing certain types of calls, but aside from that nothing will come of it. Officials already review every game they work, and if they missed calls they're going to see them.

Probably will go nowhere. But watching some of these games how our guys get clobbered and get a no call, but on the other end of the floor then most gentle of finger grazes gets a foul call...something is up. It's been this way for a long time, it ain't nothin' new at all. I think submitting the official complaint is good, but the best thing to do now is to just get W's. Just get out there, make shots, keep driving to the lane (call or no call), play D and win games. That's the only way to earn respect.
