The Toronto Raptors are entering a season filled with uncertainty at the top in the front office, but for the players and coaches on the basketball court the vision is clear: this team is trying to be competitive and win as many games as possible. However, coming off of a disappointing season that set the team back it is very much easier said that done.
The biggest task that new head coach Darko Rajakovic is facing is resetting the culture within the team and the locker room, and it is something that was continuously addressed at their media day. Especially considering he is a rookie head coach, Darko really has his work cut out for him.
So with no first-round pick to fall back on, and having a roster that does not really feel like it can compete with the best in the NBA’s Eastern Conference, what is really going to be the measure of success for the 2023-2024 Toronto Raptors?

We need to trade og Pascal and tank. We don't have it in us to do well in playoffs. Tank now so we can have a good future and build around Scottie. We try to win now we won't win a chip for the next 15 years lol
I agree that there was no enjoyment in watching the Raptors last season. Player development and progression will definitely excite the fans; players like Scottie, Malachi, Precious, Gary, Chris B and Jeff D. We want to see Pascal, OG, Jakob and Dennis exceed their playing level. This will be our expectations. We have the right head coach and coaching staff to make it happen.
I would be upset at this analysis but it is called amateur hour sports so i'll keep it moving
45 wins 7th seed
You heard it here first guys, Jacob Gramenga and his crystal ball have it all figured out
FVV has a great story but he didn't do much for this team last year. Too many individual plays for a small guard. Let him get his money elsewhere and let's move on.
