Blake Murphy Sports Writing

Blake Murphy and Eric Koreen return after an eventful summer – Eric got married! The guys reset after a memorable championship run and an offseason of adjustment for the Raptors sans-Kawhi Leonard. They discuss how good the Raptors can be in the Eastern Conference picture, Pascal Siakam’s opportunity to step into a #1 offensive role, Nick Nurse’s chance to experiment with a different offence, expectations for OG Anunoby after a lost sophomore season. Plus, the guys assess the defence and if it can remain a top-10 unit in the NBA, establish a floor and ceiling heading into the season, and discuss other potential surprises with players like Terence Davis, Matt Thomas and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson looking to make an impact.
