Out of boredom I added it up and the top 5 picks in last year's draft are averaging 24.6 ppg combined!

No surprise there, last year's top end draft is historically bad.

I know a lot of people including myself think that the Raptors don't get the media attention that they deserve, but they haven't made the playoffs in 5 straight seasons.

I think their luck is about to change, hopefully for a long period of time if the following occur:

-Post-season appearance this year and next season
-Lowry/Demar making the AS team
-Successful 2016 NBA all-star weekend in Toronto

This would probably generate some positive buzz for the city.

If, and WHEN, we make it to the second round, plus have an all-star (hopefully two), we will be getting plenty of attention.

The Bulls have won 5 straight games. As I said before, Thibs will somehow get this team into the playoffs. If they want to miss the playoffs, they better fire the coach.
