"It's Darko Rajakovic. The Head Coach of the Raptors has enjoyed two seasons at the helm, his first two as a head coach in the NBA. He has faced arguably as large a split as I've ever seen on coaching analysis when it comes to media versus the fanbase. Media members - myself included - largely praise him and consider him a solid infrastructural coach with a locker room that loves him."
"Through two seasons, Rajakovic has suffered 109 losses to only 55 wins. That's the fourth-worst of any team over that stretch, behind only the pitiful Utah Jazz, Charlotte Hornets, and Washington Wizards. The offence has been especially putrid, with the fifth-worst offensive rating over the same stretch. There has really not been any consistent area of success, no lineup that has driven good offence, no pet play (skip the 77 got sniffed out pretty fast),"
Darko Rajakovic enters a high-pressure season as Toronto's head coach after two NBA seasons with a 55–109 record and heavy fan criticism. The Raptors posted one of the league's worst offensive performances, ranking fifth-worst in offensive rating and showing no consistent offensive system, lineup, or reliable half-court scoring on first chances. Rajakovic was initially perceived as an offensive-minded coach but self-identifies as a defensive coach who knows some offence. His teams have emphasized passing, ranking fifth in assists, yet offensive possessions remain inefficient amid limited shooting and self-creation.
