In Episode 1501, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic) to react to the Toronto Raptors' 97-94 opening night win over the Minnesota Timberwolves that saw Dennis Schröder go off for 22 points and 7 assists in his first game as a Raptor, while O.G. Anunoby chipped in 20 points and absolutely smothered Anthony Edwards on the other end to earn head coach Darko Rajakovic his first career win. Off the top, they dig into an impressive defensive showing for the very long, very athletic Raptors, as they held Anthony Edwards to an 8/27 shooting night, while Karl-Anthony Towns went 8/25 for just 19 points. Plus, a look at how the defense fueled all of the best offensive flourishes for the team, as will likely be the case all season long. Next, Sean and Jamar discuss the above-the-break three-point shooting that helped balance out an otherwise rough offensive night, as they canned 11 of their 25 non-corner threes, with Schröder, Anunoby and Pascal Siakam look particularly good on those looks. Lastly, they run through The Good (Siakam's minutes load, Darko's post-game speech), The Bad (defensive rebounding, the bench rotation) and The Hmmm (Chris Boucher's DNP-CD, Precious Achiuwa splitting minutes at center -- and setting decent screens!) to round out the show.
