I will not miss this season at all. At one point I was really enjoying the competitive losses but when it became clear top 5 odds were out of reach it sucked all the fun out of the year.

No real positives to take away other than we found a dog in Shead, Jak and Boucher showed their full potential and we own our pick. Our bench is certainly better than it was last year. Gradey, IQ and Scottie were all relative disappointments based on expectations.

Time to get back in the lab and figure some things out

What a long painful season. But honestly at least our rookies got a lot of valuable PT this year which will help them next year when it really matters.
Add a lottery pick and Ingram and I'm feeling good about our direction!
The future is bright!

It's finally over. We need to celebrate the end of this **** season. Sacrificed another year of life on this earth for the tank. Great things are coming starting in June.

Why is Boucher in the doghouse? I hope he gets extended run today. He should get the chance for another contract.

Pretty sure I predicted them to be 28-54, so the season was on my par with my expectations.

My biggest complaint is they half-ass tanked. Flashes of 2012 all over again.

Roll out the full roster to give us a sneak peak for next season.

Scottie. Ingram. IQ. RJ. Poeltl. All healthy and playing regular minutes, ready to make a statement.

Lose by 15.

Let's finish the season off with a W.

Draft lottery is a month away.

Pretty much this, to add on positives RJ has improved on both sides of the court. If we had to trade one of RJ or IQ I honestly lean to keep RJ because he improved. He may be a Demar on his work ethic, he may continue to improve hopefully. Needs to work on his FT though and his Net rtg and ppg will improve visibly. Unlike others in this forum, I like his bully ball on attack.

Ingram's health will decide where this team goes next

How do you think the Raptors faired based on your expectations?
