With seeding and matchups in the playoffs this is going to be a really interesting end to the season for the raptors.

Also since Bucks and Celtics are fighting for 1st seed, doesn't seem like either would rest their players.

On top of that, Raptors probably finish the year in 8th or 9th. Looking at the schedule and how far we are from the 7th place Heat (we are 3.5 games back) with a hard schedule coming up.

So if we do finish 8th, we play the play-in and if we win we go to play either the Celtics or Bucks in the first round. So those last games is a perfect time for Celtics and Bucks to set the standard going into the playoffs.

I wouldnt be surprised if we dropped down to 10th and have to two play-in games. But I think the team is good enough NOW to beat any play in team: Hawks, Heat, Bulls, Pacers

If we could win one of the two Celts games would be a great start to playoffs.

Prediction to end the year:

7-5

41/41

Perfectly balanced
