This was without a doubt the strangest NBA season in forever. Yes, there have been strikes and lockouts, or the threat of same, over the years in professional basketball. But never has a season started, stopped, and restarted, only to jump ahead quickly to the next year. The flow of the whole enterprise was just off — for the Raptors, for the entire league, and for everyone else.
And yet we still had enough memorable moments — games, plays, one-offs, what-have-you — to make a top ten list involving Toronto. As we arrive now at the final day of 2020, this most cruel year, we can look back and smile at the reprieve the Raptors brought us over the past 365 days.
