Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors
Sports:Basketball
In Episode 1561, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Sportsnet) to chat about the Toronto Raptors 126-100 loss to the New York Knicks in Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett's returns to MSG. Off the top, Sean and Vivek chat about why the absence of Jakob Poeltl is really being felt, as the team is now 1-6 without their starting center. Would he have been the difference between winning and losing on Saturday? Probably not. But it is clear that for the Raptors to create an environment conducive to the development of their most important young players, Poeltl's roll gravity, rim protection, screening and passing are absolutely essential. Next, Sean and Vivek chat about the uncertainty hanging over Bruce Brown, who clearly fits the Raptors, but is reportedly going to be sought after by a lot of contending teams before the Feb. 8th NBA Trade Deadline, including the Knicks, who Brown had some interesting comments about after Saturday's game. Plus, will Gary Trent Jr. get moved? And will the deadline finally offer a lasting image of clarity for the team moving forward? Lastly, Sean and Vivek run through The Good (Gradey Dick with another strong showing), The Bad (RJ Barrett's assist totals getting nuked by poor finishing, Dennis Schroder) and The Hmmmm (Immanuel Quickley's playmaking, Quentin Grimes as a potential returning piece in a Bruce Brown deal) to round out the show.
