Toronto Raptors host Cleveland Cavaliers in their home opener at Scotiabank Arena on Wednesday .

Raptors will try to live up to their namesake in the NBA team’s 30th season and play fast, aggressive basketball.

All-star forward Scottie Barnes , the Raptors focal point on both sides of the ball, summed it up neatly days before the game.

Toronto has the toughest schedule to start the season of any NBA team.

Twenty of the Raptors’ first 25 games are against playoff teams from last year .

Eleven of those teams made it past the first round of last year's first round.

The Raptors will be missing several key players on Wednesday night .
