@Miggs was emphatic about taking the Raptors under 48.5 wins before the start of the season and said that wins like Portland wouldn't be there this year. I know that 2nd quarter was mostly just variance in terms of the Blazers scoring only 4 points but honestly this Raptors team looks better than last year's team. They're looking like they're going to hit that over. They're not even settled within their new offense yet and still look like one of the best teams in the east. They didn't lose anything letting COJO and PJ walk because Masai has drafted extremely well. Norm, OG, Poertl, Wright, Siakam and Van Fleet are all contributing. Y'all are a deep roster building a team within a team......

Im learning not to get too high after wins....and yes POR had a 6 point quarter which you dont see.They played well,the bench has been surprisingly good but its just 6 games in...

The fact this team is still willing to chuck 30 3s a night at 25% and the fact Lowry still despite tonight hasnt looked good means im not willing to come off my prediction yet...Also Nogueira stepped in and dominated the paint,hes not gonna do that when Valanciunas is back.

There defense isnt going to be as dominant and aggressive with Jonas back starting.
