Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors
Sports:Basketball
In Episode 1460, Sean Woodley is joined by Oren Weisfeld (Sportsnet, Yahoo! Sports Canada) to discuss the Canadian men's national team ahead of the 2023 FIBA World Cup Japan-Phillipines-Indonesia and whether this year's squad stands a chance of breaking a very long drought of major tournament success for the men's team. Off the top, Oren pitches a skeptical Sean on why it might really be different this year. Will a committed core group of players, and the super talented backcourt duo of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jamal Murray be enough to buck the trend of underperformance? Next, they discuss the impact of Nick Nurse being replaced as the head coach by Jordi Fernandez without much runway before the World Cup, and discuss why Dwight Powell and Kelly Olynyk might be as important to Canada's chances of success as anyone on the team. Lastly, they lay out Canada's pathway through the tournament, where they stack up both in Group H alongside France, Lebanon and Latvia, and in the pool of teams from the Americas, from which only two will earn a bit in the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
