In Episode 1475, Sean Woodley goes solo to field some questions from, the listeners, about the upcoming Toronto Raptors season. Off the top, Sean digs into quite a conundrum: would it be better for the Raptors to finish near the bottom of the league and keep their top-6 protected pick from the Jakob Poeltl trade, or have their pick fall at 7th and sent to San Antonio? Sean thinks the answer is pretty clear. Next, Sean runs through the roster and discusses some of the players he thinks might have trouble adapting to Darko Rajakovic's offensive style of play, as well as players on the team who might thrive playing a move ball and player movement-heavy style of basketball. Lastly, Sean digs into what a successful season might look like for Raptors rookies Gradey Dick and Markquis Nowell, as well as whether the Raptors' should consider an all-in push to capitalize on a wobbly Eastern Conference.
