Synopsis: In the latest edition of The Raptors Reasonablists Podcast, Eric Koreen and I discuss the Raptors’ quick road trip, an historically poor shooting night, heavy workloads for their point guards, and more.
Blake and Eric discuss the Raptors continuing to stay competitive in spite of injuries, including a 5-4 stretch since losing Pascal Siakam, Marc Gasol and Norm Powell. The guys break down one of the worst three-point shooting nights in NBA history against Miami and the Raptors struggle against the zone, as well as a much-needed bounce back performance against the Nets, led by Kyle Lowry and Fred VanVleet. Plus, looking at Serge Ibaka’s play and the reliance on him in a shorthanded offense, OG Anunoby showing off playmaking abilities, Eric’s thoughts on which injured Raptor could return soonest, and potential lineup changes with two unique tests against the Blazers and Hornets this week.
