I predict that they will go 50-32 and nab the 3rd seed in the east. 

Ya, I was also thinking right around 50 wins...

 just under 50 wins.

 still won't make it out of the 2nd round.

but still ... I'm excited !!!!

I have no idea what to expect from JO, Calderon, or Bargs. If all three play like most think they should, I can see us easily winning just under 50 games. It won't be easy for Calderon to duplicate his shooting numbers of last season, but hopefully he can come real close and prove that he was the right PG to stand by.

As of right now I'll predict 43 wins. My mind can be quickly changed though. 

50 wins is realistic for the Raptors but the problem is that might still put them in 3rd place in their own division which would give them the 4th or 5th seed in the East.  If JO can get back to level he was at before the knee injury this team could make a good run and be right there with the Celtics, 6ers, Pistons and Cavs.  Pairing JO and Bosh with all the Raptors outside shooting could be lethal at the offensive end and if Bosh can match the defensive intensity he showed at the Olympics we should be pretty set at that end of the floor too.

 I think the Raps will blow the doors of everyone this year and will come in 2nd to only Boston at the end.. I say 57 wins this year.... behind Boston at 60. They will move to the conference finals where they will take Boston to 7 Games before bowing out.. Calderon will have a breakout year similar to the one Nash had when he joined Pheonix leading the league in Assists this year and averaging about 15 to 18 points per game.. Andrea will win the 6th Man of the year award ccoming off the bench to average 19 points per game. Kapono will shoot the lights out from 3 point land winning the 3 point % title....And Roko will have a good rookie year under the tutelage of Calderon averaging about 6 assists to go with 10 points... Finally Bosh and O'Neal will combine to avg 40 points and 30 boards per game as a tandem...with Bosh being voted to the NBA's All Defensive Team.

Can't Wait..
