Toronto Raptors Tickets

In his first year with the Toronto Raptors, new coach Dwane Casey was riding on a wave of adoration and big expectations after being the assistant coach when the Dallas Mavericks won the NBA Finals in ‘11. However, stepping up into the head position in Canada’s only NBA team, Casey was obviously going to have his work cut out for him when it comes to repeating his success, as the team was in its second year without star Chris Bosh and the Toronto Raptors roster was full of young, but talented, players. Building up those youthful, skilled men into stars and a well-rounded team was the focus of the year from the get-go for the Raptors, who spent the season trying to solidify their defense and expand on their offensive accomplishments.

Though they had an overall losing season, the Toronto Raptors schedule might have ended differently had star players like Andrea Bargnani and Jerryd Bayless not been injured for an extensive part of the year. Both Bargnani and Bayless were on the way to the best seasons of their careers, and one can only imagine what the Raptors would have looked like at full health. The Raptors seemed like a team that is getting ever closer to being a force in the NBA this last year, pulling out major victories against Atlanta, Philadelphia, Denver, Memphis, Houston, Boston and big-time rivals the New York Knicks. Games like their Feb. 10, 86-74 victory over the Celtics showed that the Raptors can pull out big wins when everything gels, and it’s these kind of successes that the team will try to build on this season.
