Ben Nicholson-Smith joins the morning show to discuss Rob Manfred announcing the cancellation of regular season games after yesterday's failed CBA talks, the false optimism that was conveyed in the 24 hours leading up to Tuesday's deadline, how the lockout is affecting the Blue Jays, and when the PA and league may reconvene to resume negotiations (1:42). Later, the morning crew chats about the Raptors' thrilling win over the Nets, the return of full capacity crowds at Scotiabank Arena, Goran Dragić getting jeered by Raptors fans, and Malachi Flynn making a strong case for a more consistent role in the rotation (24:42).
