  1. I had to shoot for a while with glasses too because of an eye injury and I’m usually a great shooter but those glasses turned me into Rudy Goebert shooting 3’s, I’ll say it’s crazy hard because it messed my perceptual depth.

  2. 27:00 – Ja'Kobe Walter will be Jesus (Walter Ray Allen) Shuttlesworth Jr.

    You can run Ja'Kobe and Gradey in mirroring actions, causing havoc on the defense.

  3. This Raptors team has re-invigorated my love for this organization. Masai's vision is coming to fruition, piece by piece…

  4. Thanks for the podcast. I'm wondering what has happened to the Poeltl pick and roll offense the last few games. Obviously some teams like the cavs or even the Bucks can simply protect them rium and stop it but tath isn't really the case with the Pistons or Pels. Is Barnes looking for more cutters and open perimeter shooters? I would have thought it would still have a role in a diversified attack.

  5. The fact that they’re so close to the play-in shouldn’t be a reason for them to strive for it. It should be a reason to get rid of conferences.

  6. I’m old enough to remember when the East was the better conference. But that’s just because I’m so old.

  7. I think the way Scottie is playing above the break is on purpose. They wanted him to take 12 threes last night. I don’t think they are interested in Scottie doing the things they already know he can do. If this season is about development than you have to let this man develop too.

  8. Yes, he does, I just wish that Barnes would post up a little more rather than shooting so many 3's. Take a couple 3's, and if it's not working, go post up. Barnes is dangerous in the middle

  9. Omg that NOL game in Nov 2022 was BRUTAL. I’ve never seen a player like Zion be so unstoppable vs a Nick Nurse defense. I was in awe of his performance that day.

    Great video as always❤

  10. Are we even aware that the Raptors are yet to have the privilege of suiting up 100% of its players ? Can u imagine a whole Raptors teams healthy ?
