Lucky charm PJ/Marvin, it happened before, it's time it happens again:


The Toronto Raptors WILL win the 1st pick in the 2025 nba draft

The Toronto Raptors WILL win the 1st pick in the 2025 nba draft

The Toronto Raptors WILL win the 1st pick in the 2025 nba draft


We need that first, otherwise we may stuck in the upper lotto/murky middle unless some unforeseen growth by our core/young players.

I think if Matt Devlin represents us at the lottery we'd have a better chance with his positivity. You gotta believe Jack !

Or am I doing this wrong?




I was here the last time this worked so:

The Toronto Raptors WILL win the 1st pick in the 2025 NBA draft.

This is way more positive than just the slot. In fact, the Raptors will get the 3rd pick in the draft and trade down and then draft the best player in the draft while also upgrading one of their starters as well.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

I will be overjoyed too obviously but isn’t winning the championship the actual point of everything? Not criticizing, but it is fascinating. Would you take a decade of possible hypothetical future success over a guaranteed current success? Anyway not the place to discuss, negative outcomes after…

The Raptors win the number 1 overall pick in the 2025 NBA draft.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Nothing will match winning the title. But this would be second place for sure, and easily the second biggest moment in Toronto sports since the 1993 Jays title. Which is more a testament to how poorly run our sports teams have been than anything else lol.

It's not as important as the real lottery which is the draft itself....but it'd be awesome to get into top 4. We got a 1 in 3 shot. Let's hope.
