And what's to come next?
Well, tell me this- already armed with a full contingent of roleplayers, how difficult is it going to be for Mr Colangelo to build around the trio of Ford, Bosh, and Bargnani as they, and the rest of the team, continue to develop?
The rise of BC as GM of the Raptors- he's making it look so easy. He's already looking like exec of the year for this season.
It just feels good to know that OUR team is being run well. Who's talking about Peddie now?

This question is premature and the answer is very, very obvious. The Raptors would be the 4th seed if the playoffs started today, but they've only played 37 of the 82 games. The Raptors haven't
made the playoffs yet and even after the Raptors make the playoffs, everyone knows that the toughest task for all parties involved is winning the championship. An even harder task than rebuilding a team is improving a playoff team to make it a championship squad. Ask Pat Riley, Donnie Walsh, the Maloof brothers, Joe Dumars, even Bryan Colangelo himself knows the challenges of molding the team into an absolute winner. So in short, yes, of course, BC has his work cut out for him. What's next? Building a perennial playoff team.
