The NBA’s regular season, as we know, is an 82-game grind. Some teams battle all season long in hopes of sneaking into the postseason whereas others merely coast. The Toronto Raptors, if all goes well, will be able to slide into a top seeding in the Eastern Conference.
It’s been a remarkable first quarter of the season for Toronto. At 16-4, they possess the league’s best record and have done it with players constantly moving in, out, and around the lineup. It’s tough to find a deeper roster in the NBA at this point and hard to imagine Kawhi not wanting to be a part of this culture for the foreseeable future…… I know, still early…
However, putting the noisemakers and balloons down for just a second, last I checked, holding the league’s best record in November was a trophy-less accomplishment.
