Other nba teams also feel the same way when they see Raptors on their schedule lol.

We're 3rd last, just a sliver away from dead last. There is no "easy" schedule for us. We may also be 8-37 when that stretch starts lol.

Re: [Uthayakumar] The Raptors Have The Easiest Remaining Strength of Schedule
Way too much money invested into young players not to do everything to reach play-in to get that first look of the core4 under the pressure of the playoffs and IQ is already 25: We need to find out ASAP if his choking in his last playoffs was just an outlier.
Hopefully, we are bit more lucky with injuries with this remaining schedule.

Re: [Uthayakumar] The Raptors Have The Easiest Remaining Strength of Schedule
I honestly think Masai made a request for this schedule so we’d be as buried as possible. I believe in Darko developing some Ls regardless of the opponent. If we can make it to the last 15 in the bottom 5, we can start leaning on Chomche a bit to take us home.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

Since the draft lottery went to top-4.
The 7th pre-draft lottery odds have been very lucky.

In before we get some obscure net rating stats.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

We need to trade Poeltl to ensure this doesn't take us out of the tankathon standings. Winning these meaningless games as chemistry builders would be a disaster. Either we move Barrett or Poeltl. Otherwise we will drop in the tankathon standings.

Uh oh. That's not good.
I just saw Cooper Flagg put on a historic performance and now I'm finding out we have the easiest remaining schedule?

Absolutely. I also suspect we've told the league not to let the refs give us the benefit of the doubt on calls. Raps are going to be able to justify shedding some of the bigger fish - Poeltl, RJ - going into the trade deadline. And telling Scottie to stay home and rest his lower body injuries for next season, just as OKC did to Shai three or four seasons ago. Of course, Scottie may not have given up his all-NBA salary bump home, so he may refuse.
Pat Delany is our genius defensive coach, formerly with the Wizards. He will survive the season for one reason only. There are so many levels to tanking, and Masai is not playing games here.

Re: [Uthayakumar] The Raptors Have The Easiest Remaining Strength of Schedule
Going to see alot of random weird injuries or guys sitting out...Draft position i think is Masai/Darko Goal this season...We will put out the players vs the good teams but if we are playing teams that will effect our draft position if we beat them i think we go all out tank mode.... Masai wants a top pick this year and i think thats been obvious.

Absolutely. I also suspect we told our staff to lace the players' Gatorade with some melatonin to hinder their performance.

Re: [Uthayakumar] The Raptors Have The Easiest Remaining Strength of Schedule
That March stretch could really put the tank in jeopardy. We NEED to do some unethical tanking if we want to stay competitive with the other tanking teams.
