The 2020-2021 NBA season hasn’t played out the way most Toronto Raptors fans thought it would. This season has been up and down. Players have underperformed, the team was hit by COVID-19, and opponents’ game-winning shots have left us feeling sick one too many times. Luckily, the season isn’t over.
The Raptors have 29 games left on their schedule and still have a lot to play for. A nine-game losing streak was far from ideal, but the potential that this team will bring us exciting basketball in the near future is a good enough reason to stay dialed in.
Over the past 5 seasons, the Raptors cruised through the regular season. It was never a question of whether or not they would make the playoffs. Now, they’re the hunters, and it’s exciting to watch them try to get their spot back.
Even though it will be one step short of impossible for this team to compete for a championship, the Raptors are still in a position to be entertaining and worthy of your emotional investment over the next few weeks.
