Death, taxes, and American’s underestimating the Toronto Raptors. The Westgate Las Vegas Superbook has officially released their over/under win totals for the 2018-2019 season, and the Raptors open up at 54.5 wins.
Typically I am not one to complain about the lack of “respect” the Raptors, or any team for that matter, receives. Fans and media typically might be a hair slow to react, but more the most part, I cringe when I see the media-conspiracy takes.
However, it does seem odd that the Toronto is projected to have 4.5 wins less than last season despite significantly improving their team in the offseason.
