The Raptors are a lot of fun.
They also are 6-1 after their win over the Sixers on Sunday, a game which included DeMar DeRozan’s 360 layup. That was two of his 24 points on just 12 shots — he was 4-of-5 at the rim but did a good job getting to his spots along the baseline just 10-12 feet out.
The Raptors are on top of the East early on, and while we don’t expect that to stick all season they have gotten a healthy cushion both in the Atlantic Division (1.5 games already) and over teams like Washington they expect to battle for the third seed by the end of the season.
