Easy schedule so far and everyone has stayed healthy.

If injuries start to hit some of their key guys - Barnes, Ingram, Barrett, Quickley - not sure the Raps have the depth to overcome missing one or multiple of those guys for an extended period. 

They should make the Playoffs in a weak Eastern Conference, though I don't consider them Championship Contenders. Likely a first or second round exit IMO. 

So a top six team in the East, you're saying? Not bad, if they beat the Cavs they can go like 15-1 in a 16 game window, that's good.

Pretty much this. They have to upgrade in a couple of areas to really make a push. I've never been a fan of Barrett and that's not changing. 

I'm a bigger fan of Shead than Quickley, but I haven't given up on Quickley. Interested to see where this current roster maxes out. They're fun though, and headed in the right direction. 

NBA cup is a good thing for a team like this.

Yeah I think they could finish in the range when all is said and done at the end of the season for sure.
