In Episode 1579, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Sportsnet, Raptors in 7) to chat about the things they're hoping to see out of the Toronto Raptors during the stretch run of their season. Off the top, they take a second to talk about Jaylen Brown's gloriously embarrassing dunk contest performance before shouting out Scottie Barnes for an admirable and very fun All-Star debut. Next, Sean and Vivek dig into the Immanuel Quickley & Scottie Barnes duo and why the massaging of their fit with one another needs to be the Raptors' highest priority down the stretch, as well as some of the types of actions they're most eager to see them link up for. Lastly, they get into Gradey Dick, and why they'd like to see him play more minutes with the Raptors core four players than he has so far (0) and the reasons for and against moving him into the starting lineup in place of Gary Trent Jr. Part 2 comes tomorrow!
