Despite recording a franchise-best season, 2017-2018 was the most disappointing year the Toronto Raptors have ever had. Nothing quite hurts like getting your hopes up just to have them crushed once again.
The shame didn’t stop at simply losing. Branded as “LeBronto”, the Raptors turned into the laughing-stock of the NBA.
A depressing history
Struggling to perform in the playoffs is a Raptor tradition at this point. This is clearly evident when comparing previous regular season and playoff performances.
