Survey says! NBA.com posted the results of their annual GM Survey and, if we're being honest, the Toronto Raptors did not receive a lot of love from rival GMs.
DeMar DeRozan received consideration as the most athletic rookie while Andrea Bargnani, Marco Belinelli and Jose Calderon (?!?!) received votes as international players most likely to have a breakout season in 2009-10.
Toronto received consideration as one of the teams making the best overall moves. They were also tabbed as a team that will be the most improved in 2009-10. Meanwhile, the Hedo Turkoglu sign-and-trade to Toronto also received votes as one of the most surprising moves of the offseason.
