The Milwaukee Bucks took care of business against some bad and shorthanded teams recently but couldn't keep that streak alive against a Toronto Raptors squad without franchise player Scottie Barnes, losing handily at home with most of the roster unable to operate vs Toronto's ball pressure. Kevin Porter Jr. was the one exception, but KPJ couldn't lift the Bucks offense by himself.

Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti discussed the dispiriting loss and how it sets them up to dread how Milwaukee may look in a tough week of games against the Heat, Cavaliers, and Knicks this week. They also debate when Giannis Antetokounmpo will return.

To close the episode, Ti and Rohan discuss Wayne Embry and all that he accomplished as a player, basketball decision maker, and business executive as Black History Month comes to a close. Embry is a true trail blazer and a Bucks icon who certainly deserves all of the honors he has received and then some, and someone who every Bucks fan should know about.
