So... things are going well for the Raptors. They are 26-10, the best record through 36 games in franchise history, and have bounced back with three solid wins after faltering a bit after the Christmas break.
But there are some reasons for concern. They’ve mostly built their record by beating up on losing teams — which they should be doing, don’t get me wrong — and under-performing against winning teams. They currently sport a record of 19-3 against teams that are currently under .500, and a record of 7-7 against teams that are currently .500 or better.
