If you told moon on Septemeber 1st last year that on March 15th, 2014 the Heat would be only 7 and a half games ahead of the Raptors, his only conclusion would have been the Heat were just absolutely terrible. He'll still claim they are playing down to their competition or not trying till the playoffs (or that they're older and have no bench), but ignore that the Raptors are the only team in the East to play a top 15 schedule, that the Raptors are top 5 defensive efficiency since the Rudy trade, and that the Raptors bench is very good.
The Raptors also have to re-sign Lowry. He's turned into a top 10 point guard. Trading him would have been a poor choice, not easy to find a top 10 point guard anywhere else.
