Did we finish #1 in the east after the Gay trade? Or did we slip a spot or two?

IIRC, Raptors had the best record in the East after the Gay trade.

I think most Realgm Raptors fans care.

I for one care. :lol:

Pre-season is a battle of the benches and evidently our bench is better than other teams bench.

I don't see how the supposed #1 in the east to be Bulls are so far behind. Same goes for Miami the supposed #3 in the east.

If you don't care, you're not a real fan.

You really can't come to a conclusion with these games, most deep teams end up having a good record. It's more important to see how we do when we have our top guys in and how well they are meshing, you'd have to go deeper into the stats but just watching our team I can tell we'll be a top 3-4 team if we stay healthy. A lot of factors should be considered, we're a relatively young team compared to other elite (older) teams so its understandable that our guys go hard whenever they step on the floor because they got stuff to prove, a team like the spurs don't really have much to prove its more just getting back into shape and getting use to everything again, getting use plays etc

Pre-season is the time to show depth. If you are not playing your starters mass minutes and winning, that is depth.
