The Toronto Raptors are taking a break. After winning six straight and asserting some supremacy — even as they worked in new players in Marc Gasol, Jeremy Lin, and Patrick McCaw — there are still some questions to be answered about this roster. When will Gasol be given the opportunity to start? Is that coming at all? Who will join the team to fill out the roster? How will Linsanity’s bench scoring blend with different lineups?
Trying to navigate this unknown is hard for Raptors fans, but it’s also proving difficult for the wisest of men, the NBA power ranking elite.
