No Raptor Fans only......Would you be nervous to play them inthe playoffs?

Question

I think they have potential to be a very dangerous team to play come playoff time,

Non Raptors fans only....

Answer 1

Maybe .... They have a well balanced team and very good role players around Chris Bosh. I mean they went on the road and beat the Rockets a couple of days ago. That's impressive ... especially for an east team. But they lost big to Milwaukee, Clev, and Washington right after. Would I be concerned ... yes! Nervous?.... no because they are beatable.

Answer 2

I am a Pistons' fan and no I wouldn't be quaking in my shoes if we had to play the Raptors. They will probably end up with the 2 seed to our 1, so we wouldn't have to play them until the conference championship. Anyways, I feel the the PF position, between 'Sheed and Bosh is a tie. It could go either way on any given night. At C, C-Webb is much better than either Bargnani or Garbajosa. At SF, I think Prince is much better than anyone Toronto can put at that position. As far as SG, there is nobody on the Raptors who can guard Rip Hamilton. And at PG, Billups will have a HUGE advantage. Both Toronto point guards are small and weak. Billups loves to post up on guys like Ford and Calderon. Off the bench, their guards are the only ones that might have an advantage. With Mo Pete, Calderon, or Parker, they have a solid supporting cast. But Flip Murray, Lindsey, and Delfino aren't too bad either. Up front off of the bench we have Maxiell, McDyess, and Davis, who are much better than Garbajosa, Bargnani, Humphries, and Nesterovic, one of which will start.

Answer 3

Im a Heat fan and i would be scared and concerned playing with them.They seem a team that can make a deep run into the playoffs and the way Bosh is playing shows how they have improved.

Answer 4

hell yes they are on there way 2 being the East version of the suns. Calderon and TJ for are like a poor mans Nash Bargnani, Garbajoa , Bosh are there diaw marion and Stoudamire Mo P and parker are there offensive/defensive answeres for opposing squads like Bell and Barbosa are for the suns. Notthis year but wait till next year after bargnanai goes thru weight training during off season

Answer 5

i would be a little nervous to play them in the playoffs because they can shoot the ball really well and they do have Chris Bosh, who is probably the best player in that division. There defense is not so great and defense wins championships.

Answer 6

no not really.I mean they got Bosh and Peterson but thats it.They just cant compare to the other teams.......YET.If the get some good trades and draft picks,they could become a powerhouse.They just are not are not at there full potential to dominate in the playoffs

Answer 7

I don't follow the NBA too well, but I don't think they're gonna be a huge threat, considering they're from the Eastern Conference. Even if they do make it to the finals, they're gonna be dominated by either, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, or Los Angeles. But I mean there are other contenders in the E Conference like Miami. Anways, I wouldn't be too worried about it.

Answer 8

as of right now, not really. if i were an eastern team such as detroit or cleveland. id worry much more about miami who can get in as a 7th or 8th seed. toronto is pretty good right now, bit inexperienced but they have a 2 good big men in bosh and bargnani. about 2 7fters one can score inside and one can score outside. future looks pretty good for toronto, they have a nice PG in ford also, bit TO prone but still a good asst man.

Answer 9

I dont think so

Any team in the west can beet the raptors
they only play well when they want to.

Answer 10

no were(the phx suns) not afraid of anythin or anyone i think the suns will win it big this year!!!
