It’s hard to be anything but happy with the Toronto Raptors performance six games into the season. They’re 4-2, tied for fourth place in the Eastern Conference, and so far, have won every game that they were “supposed” to win.
The Raptors’ two losses have come on the road to the Boston Celtics (one of their main competitors for the three seed) and the Milwaukee Bucks (the presumed favorite to win the East). Meanwhile, all of their wins have been against teams with a losing record.
But while it might be tempting to think this team is destined to beat up on the bums and fall short against the best in the league, it’s probably too early to claim anything definitive yet.
