Original Source: The Athletic
Synopsis: In the latest edition of The Raptors Reasonablists Podcast, Eric Koreen and I discuss the Raptors’ 3-3 stretch through heavy injury, including a mess of a finish against the Thunder.
Blake and Eric return from the break with some encouraging signs from the Raptors over their last six games, despite Pascal Siakam, Marc Gasol and Norm Powell all out of the lineup. The guys discuss the latest on the injuries and the addition of Toronto-native Oshae Brissett into the rotation, as well as a big night for Canadian hoops with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s historic performance and Chris Boucher continuing to carve out a role. Plus, dissecting Nick Nurse’s relationship with officiating and his league lead in technical fouls, and what experimenting with Patrick McCaw at point guard could mean when the team finally gets healthy.
Check it out on The Athletic.
