Toronto Raptors’ perimeter defense falters, transition offense stalls in loss to Boston Celtics



In Episode 1512, Sean Woodley goes solo to recap the Toronto Raptors’ 117-94 loss to the Boston Celtics on Saturday night in which Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown got loose to create all kinds of havoc against the Raptors’ perimeter defenders. Off the top, Sean digs into how the Celtics picked apart the Raptors defense by playing the exact style of basketball the Raptors clearly want to be playing, but simply don’t have the personnel to do. Next, Sean looks at where things went wrong for the Raptors on offense, Scottie Barnes’ taking nine threes, the transition attack getting neutralized by the Celtics, and how Jakob Poeltl’s spacing troubles were very much pronounced in this game. Lastly, Sean runs through the Good (Malachi Flynn), the Bad (Pascal Siakam’s three-point slump) and the Hmmm (Jayson Tatum looking comfortable against the Raptors for the first time in years) to round out the show.

  1. the one thing i didnt like about the 2nd half was us forcing 3s, in the first half we kept the game close with inside scoring, then in the 2nd half, we kept forcing 3s trying to catch back up
