But I do think Toronto fights for a playoff spot next season, with an swift first round exit and still not hope to move up in the pecking order.

Sounds like a promising future. Maybe they'll do better than the last time he made a big splash for no reason and overpaid Hedo Turkoglu (when they came 9th with a far better core that included Chris Bosh).
