I'm actually more excited about the D League team than the Raptors. I want to see Bruno and Bebe get consistent minutes and watch them produce.

I think they will be more successful than the Marlies.

There's a couple hundred thousand fans in Sauga, Peel, Halton and Brampton that I think are going to love going to these games, especially when there's a couple Raptors guys on the roster.
Hershey is 20 minutes away from me, so I'll definitely take in a game at least once per month

Pretty smart of them to put the team in Mississauga. Lots of B-Ball fans.
I wouldn't mind watching a few games next year. Delon, Powell, Bruno, Bebe should be decent ball.

I've hated the logo from the start (and I still think purple should be included and that the jerseys should have at least 1 version that says "TORONTO"), but after seeing it in real I'll saw that the 3D version of the logo (like you see on decent quality caps and on TV broadcasts like the draft) looks good, especially in metallic silver and without text. The 2D version still looks awful though (and that's the version we'll see most of the time).

Funny how Mississauga Power got bought out by the Raptors to create their official D'League as I was the mascot for that former NBDLC. As Bruno and Lucas showed up in the home opener on the first game to watch the Power play and a kid asked me in the mascot suit to get his hat signed by Bruno at courtside with a blue hat.
I'm kind of excited to see some games as I ain't that mascot anymore to see Bruno/Bebe play along with our draft picks in Wright/Powell and Hershey Centre is also where I work too. Hopefully they bring ample of fans as Steelheads is still favourable as its hockey.

Sucks you cant be the mascot anymore, but you still work at Hershey Centre so yeah you'll get to enjoy the games as a fan. Let me guess, the new Raptors 905 mascot will be Stripes? LOL I can't stand him...

Wait this is you???
Spoiler:
Although never seen you in action, I'm sure you're much better than whoever is inside of Stripes. I have a baby and twice shouted at him to come take a pic with her (when the Raptor was injured) and he ignored us. The Raptor never does that.

Will probably be keeping tabs more so on the 905 than the actual Raptors, would rather see the development of our future rather than a treadmill team.
