The Toronto Raptors are on a ROLLERCOASTER of a 3-game slide — can they bust out of it soon?
The Toronto Raptors have lost three-straight to the Lakers, Hornets and Celtics, and it’s been a rollercoaster of a skid, with some excitingly high highs and depressingly low lows. In Episode 1998, Sean Woodley goes solo to take stock of where the Raptors now sit after the last three games and talks about what’s gone wrong, what gives him hope for a turnaround, and why their 15-10 record heading into a home date in the NBA Cup quarters is still a pretty great spot to be compared to preseason expectations. Next, Sean runs through some of the Raptors’ leading issues right now — RJ Barrett’s absence, Jakob Poeltl’s uneven health and play, youthful inconsistency, defensive process and Brandon Ingram — to try and sort out whether they’re short term problems that’ll solve themselves or greater existential threats to the Raptors’ season. Lastly, Sean hits on The Good (Scottie Barnes), The Bad (The Hornets, all of it) and The Hmmm (AJ Lawson and Ochai Agbaji) from the last three games.

RJ "Hometown Kid" Barrett needs to heal up and return.
i love jak , but that simply isn’t the case its been a full month which is extremely long for a back to linger, He will at least need the time hes had this issue for to get back right but him forcing his way back has made this issue linger for an oddly long time and made it a serious problem in my eyes
Gonna be wild when the raps settle into that 6th or 7th seed, which I feel more accurately reflects the talent we have. That fake good start gassed some people up. We just gotta be more levelheaded.
There's no way you've watched this team play without jak and said "yeah they're equipped to get by without him" 😂.
