Raps look they could compete now with Cleveland for a bit in the playoffs

Lowry - Demar - Powell - Ibaka - JV

not a bad starting 5

i think the Raptors have a legit shot to beat them. not saying it's likely but i don't think its that far fetched. maybe a 25% shot, something like that

my favorite basic way to look at teams is to look at the offensive and defensive team efficiency and look for the teams with the widest spreads.

Currently Toronto is 2nd in offensive efficiency, but the defensive side is slacking. If ibaka meshes well that could bump that side up.

One caveat is that Cleveland (Lebron) kicks it into a different gear in playoffs so their data is a lot different in playoffs than in regular seasons... especially defensively.

you can see the team spreads here

oh ya i doubt Toronto beats Lebron with this addition but itll be nice to at least put up a fight. I dont think Raps are done either as rumblings about Gallanari? but he seems to be havign a great yr so iunno what we realistically could offer to even get him. Then again Ross/LAC 1 got Ibaka.

Raps got Ibakas bird rights too and he wants to resign so that could be hugeee.

I'm not sure he meant to do that, I think he thought the guy would bite on the fake and didn't but it just kinda worked out. But if that was his plan all along...holy moly.

That one was great and I like the Fresh Prince one:
When Uncle Phil leaves you and you are the only Warrior left:




They are all pretty great actually.

Nothing too crazy and no clue how we'd have enough assets to pull it off, but rumors swirling about the Pels inquiring about Cousins and George.

That oop from Russ to Durant and then the bench reaction was pretty special
