The Toronto Raptors are good. Let’s not get that twisted. We knew this coming in, and they’ve confirmed that through the first few weeks of the season.
The question now, however, is whether or not they have another level – in comparison to last season. Toronto made it all the way to the Conference Finals a year ago. Do they have a higher ceiling than that?
I don’t think we can conclude that yet. However, if it’s any indication, DeMar DeRozan has gotten off to an insanely hot start.
