In Episode 1374, Sean Woodley goes solo to break down the Toronto Raptors’ 120-100 win over the very bad Charlotte Hornets to improve to 40-39 and keep pace with the Atlanta Hawks in the NBA’s Eastern Conference play-in race. Off the top, Sean digs into the bench explosion by Chris Boucher and Will Barton (and to a lesser extent Precious Achiuwa) as they poured in 21 and 20 points respectively and Toronto’s top bench trio combined to shoot 11/17 from deep. This team doesn’t need much from its reserves to be very darn good! Next, Sean discusses the steady performances by Pascal Siakam and Fred VanVleet, who showed once again how important they are to the team, especially on nights when Scottie Barnes doesn’t have it; Barnes went scoreless in 29 minutes. Lastly, Sean runs through the Good (Fred VanVleet’s 16-point third quarter), the Bad (Jeff Dowtin’s lack of offensive aggression as the decision on his two-way contract conversion looms) and the Hmm (Christian Koloko’s passing on the short roll) before rounding out the show.

JR. ❤💜💕❣️💗💞💝💓
Raptors will waive Wieskamp, convert Dowtin and they resign Wieskamp on 2-way.
Scottie will be good against Boston.
He plays well against good teams….trent..Barton an chriss off the bench Makin shots will be very very big for us in the playoffs…but can they do that
Not raptors related but I’m not surprised Atlanta played well without Trae. If Atlanta wants to take a hard look in the mirror they should trade him (stop firing coaches), and retool around Murray and their role players.
love Jeff Dowtin. bang on about more aggression on O since it's his D that got him here. the only take i have about Dowtin as a guard, he should shoot better at the line. He looks shaky and nervous shooting foul shots. He's a guard so that should be absolute money
I think once Koloko puts on some size and fill out his frame his offence will improve.
