Almost everyone has something to prove

[Westside Gunn]

Ranking on who has most to prove highest to lowest

Barnes - the pressure is on him he is the future and is getting paid the most
Ingram - Took a lot of time off and signed a lucrative contract while injured. Also has the pressure of being the next best wing since Kawhi
Quickley - Coming off an injury, pressure is mostly on to stay healthy. I think he kind of proved himself whenever he played last year
CMB - 9th pick will need to show something
Dick - Lotto pick will be expected to perform
RJ - Pressure to replicate his last season or do better - which is not much, he can only go up from here.
Darko - I think he's on the hot seat - the next one to get blamed now that Masai is gone.
Pelley - nothing to prove, we all know he's a piece of a giant turd working for the **** company in Canada

A lot of guys have targets on them, its really up to Darko to use each of these players to their strengths and get the most wins. I'm pretty confident with everyone having something to prove and being pretty talented, it will be a good season. This is one of the best Raptors rosters ever

IQ - has to prove he can be a starting lead guard on a playoff team.

RJ - Has to prove he can be an impactful player on a playoff caliber team.

BI - has to prove he can be relatively healthy

Scottie - has to prove he’s a rookie max caliber player

Gradey - has to prove he can be a positive player, not a negative one

Darko - has to prove he can manage a game outside of just implementing an system

Make or break type of year for these guys.

Let's hope this has a positive impact on the team, that they're hungry and motivated, and getting after it start to finish.

I'm looking forward to seeing what our bench mob looks like this year. We do have some interesting pieces whose development I am keen to watch.

I hope that having a clear primary scoring option in Ingram will allow everyone to slot into more appropriate roles where a reduced scoring burden will allow them to be more successful.

Agreed!

Why do we just accept that RJ starts because of politics and feelings, when I think most would agree its kind of hard to be defensive focused team when you play all your offensively slanted talent because you pay them more and they like to think they are stars.
