At the end of an article I wrote, I noted that this current Toronto Raptors squad is not a championship caliber contender, “but that’s a story for another day”. Well, here’s that story. If you’ve been living under a rock, Bryan Colangelo was extended as president but removed as general manager of the Toronto Raptors. Masai Ujiri has taken over … Read more
“The Toronto Raptors have signed G/F, Alan Anderson from the NBA D-League.” This isn’t exactly big time news that would hit the front page. Alan was first signed near the end of the 2011-2012 season, all because of injuries. Anderson was given an opportunity to show his game to an NBA team. After being undrafted … Read more
Let’s face it, not many things really did go the Toronto Raptors’ way this season, and if there is one redeeming quality from this season, it has to be the ‘moral victories’. However, the bottom line is that this team’s record isn’t reflective of their performance this year, and it’s time to examine why. We analyze the … Read more
2006 was the very first year Bryan Colangelo came in and took charge of the front office of the Toronto Raptors. The “BC Era” many called it. Most were optimistic, but it might be safe to say that the optimism is no longer present with him as the current general manager of basketball operations. Raptors … Read more
After another lost season with no playoffs, it’s now time to make ourselves try and feel better by looking at the individual report card scores for each player on this roster. Who needs summer school? Note- grades relative to player expectations. For example, if LeBron averaged 20-2-1 he would get a D+ because that’s way … Read more
What happened to the Toronto Raptors this season? Do the fans remember the promise Jamaal Magloire made before the final game against the New Jersey Nets (now Brooklyn Nets) last season? “…and continue, continue, continue to stick with us, ’cause we are going to improve, and we are going to make the playoffs next year.” … Read more
Well, it’s official. If you were tired of the moral victories to begin the season, be weary, because a lot more are about to come. This is regardless of the Toronto Raptors winning any game from here on in. Tonight the Raptors play the Washington Wizards who have beat the Raptors the last two times … Read more
Lets face it people, the playoffs are no longer real for the Toronto Raptors. Even the extreme optimists out there, who refuse to lose hope until the Raptors are mathematically eliminated, understand this fact. Blowing this last stretch of games where the Raps could’ve easily gained ground on the 8th seed removed any hope of … Read more
No draft pick. No playoffs. Ouch. 25-40 is good enough for the ninth seed in the Eastern conference (at the time of the writing of this article) and that is exactly where the Toronto Raptors currently sit, unfortunately. Raptors fans were hoping for a late season playoff push with the acquisition of Rudy Gay on … Read more
The Toronto Raptors now (14-25) are back on the road, this time to face the Philadelphia 76ers (16-23) for their last time this season. The series is 1-2 in favor of the Sixers. These two teams met last week at the Air Canada Centre and concluded in a blowout victory for the Raptors 90-72. This game … Read more
