Different sports, NHL is more of an all-around team game, you can win by being a great all-around solid team with alot of above average players, obviously you have a better chance with some stars.
NBA you NEED at least two stars to contend for a championship, other than maybe Detroit, every team has had the two star(most of them 3 star) group to win a championship.
Miami drafted Wade, brought in Lebron and Bosh, bam all you need is role players.
lakers had Kobe and Gasol(Kobe and O'neil earlier on)
Mavericks had Nowitzki, Jason kidd(and Lebron who was letting the media get to him)
Spurs had their big 3
etc.
The raptors badly need a tank, we're a team destined for repeated 6th-8th seeds and first(maybe 2nd) round exits, legitimately cant see anything else with this core and I dont understand anyone that would believe otherwise.
The leafs have a great core to work with, and simply need to make one or two more key trades or free agent pickups to become a contender, I dont understand why people cant see that this team has already improved (at least defensively) with the additions of Bolland and Clarkson. Give us a #1 C and i'd say we're a contender, add a top 4 d-man on top of that(which could come internally) and we'd be on our way to becoming favourites within a couple seasons.
