The only downfall of this year is that the Raptors will lose their first round draft pick - the playoffs are obviously far more important but I love the NBA draft and this year's draft is very strong.

Yeah, the best I thought was that they might get 42 wins if everything went right for them. The fact that they'll probably finish around 46 or so despite an incredible number of injuries is really impressive...
In regards to the draft pick, Colangelo has said that he's looking for ways to aquire another draft pick... there are a few teams with multiple first rounders, including Phoenix, who have three. Not sure which Toronto assets Phoenix wants, but I'd expect Colangelo to work out something.
