This is most likely what the roster will be: pg-Alvin Williams/Mateen Cleaves/Lindsey Hunter sg-Vince Carter/Mo Peterson/Chris Jeffries sf-Lammond Murray/Mo Peterson/Chris Jeffries pf-Jerome Williams/Chris Bosh/Micheal Bradley/Maceo Baston c-Antonio Davis/Micheal Bradley IR:Bonner,Hakeem This Team Will be a 6-10 seed.
thats not a bad line up...jyd starting and antoino at center. only problem is, antonio will get pretty banged up down there in the middle...hed prolly get injured again.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting "J-MAC":</div><div class="quote_post">they wont make the playoffs</div> How the fuck do you know? With Carter healthy they'll make the playoffs every year, likes he's done before.
the raptors will definately make the playoffs if they can stay healthy. they have a nice lineup and solid depth. vince and lamond give them 2 scoring threats, and antonio davis can be the third option in the post. on defense jyd & davis do a great job defending the paint, and alvin is a good perimeter defender. i think alvin will be a lot better with vince and lamond back. he's a good shooter, but he struggled last year because the raptors didn't really have any players who demanded double teams. off the bench you have mo pete & bosh to provide more offense, and it looks like jeffries is finally coming around. i'd like to see rafaer make the team again, but it looks like matteen cleaves is going to take his spot.
now the line up will be like: pg-alvin/palacio/hunter sg-carter/mo pete/jeffries sf-murray/jyd/mo pete pf-moiso/bosh/jyd/bonner c-davis/bradley/bateer but there could be many combinations.
hell yes theyll make the playoffs...give one reason why they wouldnt? injuries? injuries could keep ANY team out of the playoffs, so other then that, why not? vince can put up huge numbers, lammond is good for 17 at least, and causes matchup problems...totally underrated player, always gave the raptors trouble when they played the cavs...hes a decent player...antoino and jyd give them great rebounding, and post presence (ad at least) alvin is a solid player who never turns the ball over and shoots really well, lindsay and mo pete give the raps some offence off the bench, and bradley, baston and bosh's progress will be interesting to watch, and could have an impact on the team if they stay healthy, most definitly they will make the playoffs

Every one think the line up will beg-alvin(obious)sg-carter(obious)sf-Peterson(close)pf-Bradley(close)c-A.D. I'm not sure Bradley will start I think Moiso will start and thats why he came to T.O.
