Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors
Sports:Basketball
In Episode 1518, Sean Woodley is joined by Esfandiar Baraheni (SDPN) to talk about the strong performances of Scottie Barnes, Dennis Schröder and Malachi Flynn over the first 13 games of the season and try to determine whether their starts are legit harbingers of more good to come, or 13-game blips that will be forgotten to history much like Andrea Bargnani's All-Star level start to the 2011-12 NBA season. Off the top, they dig into Scottie Barnes, who for the most part seems to be putting up pretty sustainable numbers outside of his incredible 39% clip from outside. Will that hold up? And if it doesn't, could Barnes' efficiency still maintain at or above where it is right now with some upticks in two-point and free-throw shooting? Next, they chat about the starts of Schröder and Flynn, both of whom are surpassing expectations through 13 games. Are their performances al dente aka going to stick? Or are they a little undercooked and not going to hold up against the Bargs test? Lastly, they take a look at an essential must-win In-Season Tournament tilt between the Raptors and Magic tonight as the Raptors look to improve to 1-1 against an opponent that is startlingly similar to themselves.
