It doesn’t really matter who lines up against the Raptors these days.
It could be the Bulls, the Nets, the Knicks, the Hornets, the Washington Generals or Harlem Globetrotters or someone plucked from the NCAA’s Sweet Sixteen.
What matters most is that the opponent does something that will demand special attention, and the Raptors will be judged against themselves on their own incremental improvement and success.
