The RR readership & listenership & commentor-ship (?) is a special thing. A lively community and one that ‘Done deal’ has been shepherding for win-loss predictions for a few years now. A huge thanks to ‘Done deal’ for once again compiling all the predictions, and for posterity I like to make a post for the community just so there’s something to link back to – for the winners to lift up as if it were the Larry O’Brien Trophy.
From Done deal:
“Here are your 2024/25 RR predictions on the Raptors record this year. We are on year 4 of this thing (hat tip to our past winners DC, Dumplingzzz mastezz and ramed nazored).
86 predictions in total (including 7 by staff writers). Crowdsourced average prediction is 35-47 (35.3 to be precise). Most common prediction is 32 wins, with 8 guesses.
Let’s see how it plays out this year. Good luck to all, especially the Raps!

If the community is correct, it seems there was some money to be won on the Raptors over/under.
We’ll see. Thank you once again to Done deal.
Have a blessed day.
