The NBA season is coming and I’m getting excited. There are a lot of story lines. There are a lot of questions. And for the first time in a long time, there isn’t a super-strong favourite for the NBA championship.<\/p>\n

As Toronto Raptors fan, my expectations are tempered. I know that people are low on the team with Kawhi gone. I know that. But I’m still excited to watch the games and cheer for the team and enjoy NBA basketball.<\/p>\n

To get myself ready, and hopefully you too, I’ve got 20 predictions for the 2019-20 NBA season. Some of them are out of left field. I’m not putting any money on any of these things because that would be foolish. But there is a chance.<\/p>\n

Let’s get to it!<\/p>\n

20 Maybe Ridiculous 2019-20 NBA Predictions!<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

\ud83c\udfc0 1.<\/strong> <\/span>The 2019 NBA Champion Toronto Raptors will make the playoffs, earning the Eastern Conference 4th seed.<\/p>\n

AND \/ OR<\/strong><\/p>\n

\ud83c\udfc0 2.<\/strong><\/span> Masai Ujiri will take step one in his blow-it-all-up rebuild by moving some or all of Ibaka, Gasol, Lowry.<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udfc0 3.<\/strong> <\/span>The Boston Celtics do not click as planned and either Gordon Hayward gets moved or one of the young bucks (Tatum or Brown) gets packaged in an ill-advised trade.<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udfc0 4.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0Without KD and Klay, Steph Curry will set the record for most 3-pointers in a season (again).<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udfc0 5.<\/strong> <\/span>The Los Angeles Clippers will finish with a better record than the Los Angeles Lakers.<\/p>\n
