Raptors going all in

All it takes is LeBron to go down and East's is anyone's. Finals, hmmm, west is just too strong.

Yeah i agree with that Cram. The east will be much wider open than previous tears, cavs could easily breakdown if some drama develops in house. Celtics are the biggest threat out east this season, but still feel they are playing for second.

Well said, Cram, a bit luck can go long way.

While the Warriors and Cavs stay together as currenly constructed, and other teams like Houston, okc and Spurs (and maybe Boston) making moves to put together super teams of their own, theres basically no chance a team out side those few win a title in the next 3 or 4 years. So you either blow it up and rebuild, or continue to put together a good team and hope to catch a break somewhere. I like the latter option, especially as a fan of a team that has been bad for a long time. Only one team can win, but that doesnt mean nobody else should be trying to win

No team in the east is any worse off, simply because stars have left the east. Raps like any other wastern top 4ish team had a chance to leap frog. Raps will make the 4 and lose to either celtics or cavs or wizards. But ticket sales will be up as usual and owners making money because they will compete.

Yeah its far from ideal but they'll be in the mix for a top 4 spot in the East and from there you need some breaks etc. As I said, I'm happy to have a competitive team foe another few years before the eventual rebuild and 10 years of sucking that is sure to follow.

We have some assets like Joseph that lau be able to be moved for a decent forward. I'm just really happy we didn't give them 5 year deals.

Raptors have just been lucky the east has become even weaker. Will make the playoffs but they haven't really done anything I'd be too excited about. Losing Tucker hurts especially when you offer him more and he walks!

The weekend is upon us & most grades are at least a few games into their competition. What's going on? Which clubs are looking good to take home trophies? Any upsets? Surprise performers?
