Greg Anthony Bryan Colangelo has shaken things up, but this team is going to take time to develop. A lot of excitement north of the border with all the international flavor. The talent is there, but it will take time for them to jell. DIVISION RANK: 5 | CONFERENCE RANK: 13 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chris Broussard Signs of progress will show, but not necessarily in the win column. Still a few years away from being a real playoff contender. DIVISION RANK: 4 | CONFERENCE RANK: 12 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ric Bucher They've seriously upgraded their talent, but they still won only 27 games last year. A 10-game improvement would be a nice first step for the Bryan Colangelo regime. DIVISION RANK: 3 | CONFERENCE RANK: 11 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chad Ford So the Euroleague gets a team in North America before the NBA gets one in Europe. GM Bryan Colangelo's international moves this summer should help the team's depth and experience problems, but the Raptors just don't have the talent to get into the playoff race. DIVISION RANK: 3 | CONFERENCE RANK: 11 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Hollinger The front-office soap opera is over, but it will take Bryan Colangelo at least another year to get the product on the floor up to snuff. The Charlie Villanueva trade was a step in the wrong direction, but Chris Bosh will keep them competitive. DIVISION RANK: 4 | CONFERENCE RANK: 13 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scoop Jackson Didn't see the plan until they got T.J. Ford. Now the picture is clear as Pella. Rasho Nesterovic in the middle, Fred "I'll Dunk On You" Jones at the two (as sixth man), Andrea Bargnani wherever and CB4 (Bosh) better. Sam Mitchell may get coach of the year. DIVISION RANK: 2 | CONFERENCE RANK: 7 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tim Legler The climb back to respectability has begun. T.J. can create an up-tempo style and enhance Chris Bosh's game. The key, however, will be how quickly No. 1 pick Andrea Bargnani can produce consistently. DIVISION RANK: 3 | CONFERENCE RANK: 10 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jim O'Brien Colangelo has a great plan and the Raptors will be exciting, but they are still a year or two away. Their high-octane offense will go for naught if they don't jump 10 spots at the defensive end. DIVISION RANK: 5 | CONFERENCE RANK: 13 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chris Sheridan We liked most of Colangelo's offseason moves, with the Ford-Villanueva swap the exception. The Raptors will open things up and score a bunch, but look for Ford to lead the NBA in turnovers. DIVISION RANK: 2 | CONFERENCE RANK: 9 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marc Stein This might be David "Globalization" Stern's favorite team, but Le Commish and Canada's hoops fans have to be patient. A playoff berth in Year 1, after an overhaul this drastic, is a lot to ask of Toronto's many new imports. DIVISION RANK: 2 | CONFERENCE RANK: 10 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Average ranks DIVISION: 3.3 | Standings CONFERENCE: 10.9 | Standings -- "If I can never walk again because of what I love to do, that is a chance I will take. I will die on the court." Alvin Williams --
