Best and worst-case scenario

Here is the worst-case scenario for the Toronto Raptors:

  • Miami Heat 
  • Houston Rockets 
  • Dallas Mavericks 
  • Portland Trailblazers 

This would be the worst-case scenario for the Toronto Raptors and is a potential “Group of Death”. Besides the Heat, these are all teams who have stronger star power. Also, two of these teams have struggled with injuries and their regular season seeding does not reflect their team’s actual strength.

Here is the best-case scenario for the Toronto Raptors:

  • Utah Jazz
  • Indiana Pacers 
  • Orlando Magic or Brooklyn Nets
  • Sacramento Kings

If the Raptors are anywhere near a group that resembles this, then they should have an easy road making it out.

We are not exactly sure how the groups will be made, but it should look like the way it was indicated at the beginning of the article. There are now ongoing talks on how these group stages would be set up and if it is the way mentioned in the article, you already have everything you need to know for the Toronto Raptors.

Next. The Toronto Raptors don't have a superstar, but they do have Nick Nurse. dark

Hopefully, the NBA does move forward with this format, it’d be very fun and exciting to see the playoffs in a new fashion. It also means more basketball games for everyone, and who doesn’t want to watch more basketball?
