2011-12 Recap

The Craptors aren't as bad as people thought. They finished with a 37-45 record, good for 8th in the East, right above the 36-46 Pacers and the 36-46 Bucks! Toronto went all out in Game 1, shocking Miami 114-109, but were subsequently shredded in four consecutive games.

Nevertheless, Shaq seems to be happy in Toronto. "Bargs was an All-NBA 3rd team player last season, and the rest of the starting line-up is pretty damn solid. The bench ain't bad either. I'm happy with what I got." As predicted, Shaq dominated in his rookie season. He won Rookie of the Year and was selected to play in the All-Star Game after averaging 20.7ppg and 12.8rpg, leading the Raptors in both categories. He missed 13 games in February and March with a broken foot, but when he returned, he looked like he hadn't missed a beat.
