Another week of Toronto Raptors basketball brought about another week of pain and frustration. I think the biggest lesson I’ve learned thus far is that it is way harder to write about this team when they’re the most depressing professional sports team in North America than when they’re the adorable, overachieving, scarf-sportin’, band of gritty underdogs.
But the Raptors are now apparently whole again, with at least some potential to rediscover that magic, however fleeting that might be. To quote Thin Lizzy: the boys are back in town.
That kicks off our first lesson.
