When you look back at last year's lineup for the Toronto Raptors, the team's roster is almost unrecognizable compared to the current group.

Distractions arise throughout an NBA season, but seldom as often as the week of the league’s trade deadline. That week, of course, is upon us, with all deals needing to be made by 3 p.m. ET Thursday afternoon.

The Raptors need to worry about the opportunities in front of them now and then worry about the big picture in the summer.
