It might be an understatement to say that the Toronto Raptors are having a surprising season so far.
Let’s face it. The Toronto Raptors are nowhere close to the team they were last season. They just aren’t. This comes as a big surprise for many of us who believed they were still going to be a top 5-6 team going forward; even when weighing the losses of Gasol and Ibaka.
So the biggest surprise may be that the Raptors have a 5-8 record, but that’s too easy a surprise to talk about.
