Raptors forward-center Andrea Bargnani believes his team's work ethic can lead them to bigger and better things this season.
The Raptors won the Atlantic Division last campaign and claimed a playoff berth for the first time in five years, but Bargnani is looking for further improvement in the new season.
"It will be much more difficult, but we will try to do like last year and we hope to be in the next round of the playoffs. That is the target that we have," he said. "We know we are a good team, and we will work.
"We like to work and, if we play good we can go very very far, but we still have to work."
