Toronto Raptors next season?

Question

In my opinion I think that the Raptors will do amazing next year thanks to Jermaine o'neal. People think that because of his injurues he wont be able to perform well, but look at it this way, Raptors last season shot one of the highest % and it doesn't really matter if Jermaine o`neal doesnt score at all because all the raptors really need to someone to help bosh grab boards, cause rashos fat *** cant jump to save his life bargnani is outisde the 3 missing all day so the addition of Jermaine onneal will help cause now they can't double up on bosh and woth calderon and kapono knocking down 3's all day raptors will do amazing...

but thats just me feel free to disagree i wanna hear all your opinions

Answer 2

Answer 3

I think the raptors will be a top 5 team in the east next year :)

Answer 4

Rasho isnt a Fat *** your a fat ***..  and yes i hope Kapono will do better this season like he did in the playoffs =)

Answer 5

Absolutely...! JO has already told the media and the fans that he no longer suffers problems with his knee and since he only played half the season in 08 he gave himself lots of rest to fully heal and recover.

His addition to the team gives the Raptor team exactly what they were missing for the past seasons... He will provide rebounding power which they desperately need, become an inside presence that can attract attention in the paint and free-up movements for Bosh and the perimeter players... JO will bring huge contributions on the defensive end since he averaged 2.1 blks / game even though he was swarmed with injuries! Like you mentioned he was not brought to Toronto for scoring purposes (although he can provide)... He just seems to be the missing link in every aspect that will put the Raptors over the next level. Now the Rapz have lots of options available to them since teams can no longer double-team CB4 as often and if they do, it will immediately result in Jermaine, Jose, or one of the shooters left wide open. Now don't want to create extra hype but I'm thinking the Rapz may have just found their Big 3...!

Answer 7

I agree with you that the Raptors will go far. They really needed a good center and Oneil isn't that bad, he has an attitude but he will probably play better for the Raptors. They have a good team but there is always room for improvements. If they can get a another good shooter, not a big name, but someone good, they could win a ring. They should try to get someone like Raja Bell, Rudy g*y, or even get a rookie like Durant.

Answer 8

im from indy and you will be really good this year. i think maybe the #2 if your team plays really good all year cuz the pistons are getting old. i dont know much about ur team but one thing i do know is tht jo till stay healthy cuz he has less stress on him and has a really good other low post player. if you pg is good and you guys shoot a high % of threes from kapono then you guys should do fine.

Answer 9

The Raptors will be a 5th seed in the Eastern Conference, but they will be eliminated in the 2nd round.
