    Fiction: I don't believe he will be a starter for his first year. Adam Morrison and Randy Foye are my candidates for R.O.Y

    F/F Bryan Colangelo wins Exec of the Year for the 06-07 season.

    fact- without CV31 or mike james, the raps will look much more often to mo.

    fact or fiction- the raptors are gambling too much on euro players and are gonna get burned/finish in the basement....i mean atlanta has better odds to win the championship right now (atlanta 100-1 toronto 150-1)

    fiction....i think the expansion of our Euro players are giving us more of a team game with solid players. Work ethic and the desire to win will keep us ranked above teams like Atlanta, Charlottle, Boston, and New York this season

    F/F-Raptors finish the season .500 or better, sneak into the playoffs at 6th 7th or 8th seed

    Fact.

    Given that we somehow upgrade our bench a little, I think we can make a push towards the 8th seed.

    F/F- Andrea will be starting regularly by December.

    he may have the occasional start, but i dont think he'll be ready to start regularly until after all-star break.

    F/F: Salmons will be effective off the bench and avg. 12 ppg.

    Fact ish... I don't think he will average 12, but more so around 10 depending on the amount of playing time he recives. If adequate time, I say 12+.

    F-F - Anthony Parker will avearge over 12 ppg.

    Fact, he hasn't been the best coach in the league, and with a new GM, Colangelo, he might have someone new in mind.

    F/F: Raptors will get past the second round for the first time

    Fiction: raptors (if they make the playoffs) will be 7 or 8 and will have a hard time competing with a Miami or a Detroit. So i think they will be hard pressed to get out of the 1st round this year. It will still take longer for Colangelo to fully get the system up and running so we won't be at our most effective next season.

    F/F: Joey Graham averages less than 15 minutes pt a game.

    Fact, even though we have a few swing players, his minutes won't go down, as the Raps expect him to get better on the court by playing

    Fact or Fiction: Ford goes down with a major injury next year at some point during the season.

    Fact, Raptors luck is just that bad.

    Fiction- The team isn't good enough to be expected to make the playoffs, and I'm sure there will be bigger problems than Bosh's play

    f/f - The Raps D, if its possible, will be worse than last year

    fiction - i think that even if mo-pete had a career season he still wouldnt get voted, because hes not popular.

    F/F - raptors make a good run at the end of the season and barely make playoffs.

    Fiction the Raptors will be a top 5 seed in the playoffs this season. Though it may seem absurd to think toronto a top 5 seed i believe TJ Ford will power this team like never before and we become one of the scoring leaders in the nba.

    Fact or Fiction Colangelo Trades Joey Graham for a more offensive minded SG who is more of a combo guy to be this team's barbosa.

    Semi-Fact: Joey Graham will be traded, but not for an SG...but rather another PG or a future draft pick.

    Fact or Fiction: Bargnani will make All-Rookie first team.

    Fact - bargnani will have a decent contribution to raptors this year.

    F/F - Colangello is using the cap space that WAS going to be used to sign salmons, to make a big trade.
