    What are your expectations for your team for next season ?

    As a laker fan I'am hoping the roster remain healthy. The past two season haven't been a lot of fun with all the injuries that crippled the team. I'am hoping Kobe can still perform at a high level for 30 - 32 mpg and that he develops a nice chemistry with Lin and Randle. I could see theses threes doing some damage if everything goes well. Lin has a chance of doing something really nice, I hope he realises that and he's ready.

    As far as team expectations go I'am hoping they can win 40 games and play some solid team defense under Byron Scott. I was kind of impressed with his Lakers Press interview. On Offense he will be running a little bit of everything, some Tri, some Princeton offense and lot of high p'n'r.

    What about you ?

      I know this line of thinking may be frowned upon but as a Laker fan im hoping we entertaining while being bad enough to get the #1 pick to draft Jahlil Okafor. As bad as the year was record wise last year I actually liked watching the team play. As far as the Bulls side of my fandom is concerned I hope Rose comes back healthy and is able to play more of a traditional point guard role instead of as a scorer. I think if he does then the ceiling of the team is significantly higher.

        Shock the world and make it to the Finals for the 5th straight year.

        Feels good to be the underdog again.

        But honestly, I expect an ECF trip.

                  Best scenario for Raptors would be in the 50 win range and eastern conference finals

                  Worst scenario for Raptors would probably be in the 30 win range and around bottom 10 in the league.


                  Most realistic I see is high 40s win total and make it to 2nd round. But obviously things can always change, injuries,trades and others are obviously impossible to predict what kind of impact they'll have,especially depending on what team does get that injury or trade.

                    Raptors have to make it to the 2nd round of the playoffs at the very least. I can see this being a 45-50 win team if everything breaks right.

                      Hopefully a trip to the ECF against Cleveland.

                      I may be alone on this but I hope Wade goes back to being 'The Man' and the #1 option though it's understandable many think that CB will. Based on last years performance Wade has lost a step on the defensive end but I still believe he can create havoc offensively and for all those injury concerns surrounding him, honestly he looked fine throughout the season and during the playoffs. One thing that does concern me is if he continues doing the maintenance program, I do think that this would affect the chemistry of the team especially with a semi new roster. I predict that he probably won't sit out as much as he did last year now that they don't have the privilege of having LeBron.

                          1. Rudy Gobert becomes a rotation big:

                          Spoiler


                          2. The Trey Burke and Dante Exum backcourt is successful:

                          Spoiler


                          3. Derrick Favors gets more aggressive offensively:

                          Spoiler


                          4. Gordon Hayward uses his "sneaky athleticism" to make defensive stops:

                          Spoiler


                          5. Enes Kanter adds an outside jumper:

                          Spoiler


                          6. Alec Burks finishes the season in contention for 6th man of the year:

                          Spoiler


                          7. Finish with just less than 40 wins, get another lottery pick, but grow as a team.
