JV's development will be interesting to watch.
If KL and DD move the ball inside, their games will open up. I'm not sure if they have the attitudes to pull it off though. That's the key to me for the Raptors this season. If they trust in JV enough to give him touches inside and run plays for then the perimeter game will open up. If they play it like last year and most of JV's touches are putbacks at the rim or dump offs at the rim, then the team is stuck in status quo.
Mind you, this falls upon Casey as much as it does KL and DD.
THe other item I want to see is the development of Casey's half time adjustments. I don't know how often in the last 2 years we would see the team blow a big lead or bet blown out in the 3rd quarter. Other teams seem more adept at half time adjustments than the Raptors do, and that one falls squarely on Casey.
