Realistically, we're probably a game over or under .500 after 15 games. But this board is so bipolar that this is how I could see the majority of the board reacting:

If we're 8-7: That was a tough sked, we're much better than our record shows and should make moves to go for it.

If we're 7-8: This teams sucks ass. Blow it up.

Exactly and I think this is the low end. 8-7 or towards 500 or less would shock me. We'll sweep the Bulls. We'll lose to the obvious teams and maybe lose to Denver but that schedule competition wise looks easy. If we struggle it will be because Casey is setting up any new "culture" experiment to quickly fail and be replaced by veteran guards pounding the rock.

Raptors generally do well at the start of the season because they have an established chemistry. Even this year, we have some new players but the core has played together for a while, we should be able to beat teams worse than us. The only for sure losses i see are Spurs, warriors and Rockets. Celtics are good but they've never been able to handle Derozan and we matchup well with them

15 games is really too long a stretch to have any meaningful predictions over. It's just too many games, too much can happen over that period of time. With that said, I'll say 9-6.
