The rule we established for this Toronto Raptors team in last week’s 3 Lessons has held steady. Never commit to a direction for the team, so long as you don’t want constant frustration and confusion. The play-in momentum has been cooled by a couple of tough losses with a few more tough ones on the horizon. Raptors Twitter has reversed course more times than a family road trip with a crew of forgetful children.
Luckily, I’ve finally managed to separate myself (somewhat) from the results, and just ride this thing out, win or lose. In that time, I’ve learned some.
