In Episode 888, Sean is joined by Andrew Damelin (Raptors Republic) to chat about how the Raptors 905 are faring through their first 5 games in the G-League bubble. They dig into Malachi Flynn leading the way in just about every facet for Patrick Mutombo's team, and whether it's too much to expect him to steal a rotation spot on the big club when he returns. Next, they dive into the play of Gary Payton II, and why he should absolutely be in the mix for a two-way contract from the Raptors once the bubble concludes. Lastly, they chat about some of the other notable names on the team, including Jalen Harris, Henry Ellenson and Alize Johnson.

In Episode 887, Sean and Joseph Casciaro (The Score) recap the Raptors' best win of the season, 124-113 over the Milwaukee Bucks. They first dive into their biggest takeaways, which are all about Fred VanVleet and Pascal Siakam, whose very different but similarly effective efforts helped make up for the loss of Kyle Lowry after the first half. Next, they talked about how the Raptors' defense got back to its roots against the Bucks, Khris Middleton did not have himself a very good game... They then chat about the small-ball lineup and why OG Anunoby's return to the lineup is so important, before giving some love to Lowry for his masterful first half before the ankle injury took him out.

In Episode 886, Sean and Kane Pitman (Locked On Bucks) tee up a two-game mini-series between the Raptors and Bucks on Tuesday and Thursday.

In Episode 885, Sean and Vivek Jacob chat about the Raptors' 116-112 loss to the Wolves on Sunday night -- maybe the worst loss of the season for the team -- before addressing the latest reporting on Andre Drummond's seemingly imminent move out of Cleveland. They start off with a chat about where things went wrong for the Raps against Minnesota, with the bench-led third quarter collapse coming in as a much bigger culprit than Pascal Siakam's missed bunny at the buzzer. Next, they discuss Aron Baynes' continued struggles, and why Nick Nurse' use of him in the fourth quarter may have also cost Toronto the game. They wrap up with a discussion of the latest Andre Drummond reports coming out of Shams and Woj, and dig into why a trade to Toronto seems very unlikely.

In Episode 884, Sean and Imman (Dishes & Dimes) react to the Raptors' 120-106 loss to the Celtics on Thursday night. They talk about their biggest takeaways from the game, including their belief that the Raptors probably win the game if OG Anunoby were available. Next, they take a second to praise Pascal Siakam, who looks like his old self (or maybe even better?) after a refreshingly strong effort against the same Celtics that gave him fits in the bubble. Lastly, they reflect upon the road trip and chat about how their opinions of the team have changed since early last week when the Raptors set out on the road.

In Episode 883, Sean goes solo to talk about the Raptors' 137-115 win over the Wizards on Wednesday night. He opens up by singing the praises of Norman Powell, whose 28 point performance hammered home the point that he should start full-time when OG Anunoby comes back, while also completely souring Sean on the idea of trading Powell for Andre Drummond. Next, Sean takes a moment to talk about DeAndre' Bembry, who has become a really nice role player for Toronto -- one whom Sean's grandma particularly loves. Lastly, Sean assembles his official list of the top-5 big men he's like to see the Raptors target before the trade deadline. GORGUI!

In Episode 882, Sean and Vivek Jacob take a look at the Raptors' 7th-ranked offense and try to determine what's real and what might be fool's gold. They start off by sharing their overall impressions of how the Raptors' attack looks from the eye test, and remark upon the work Fred VanVleet and Pascal Siakam have done to help smooth out what used to be a bit of a creaky half-court operation. Next they dive into the numbers underlying the the 113.2 offensive rating Toronto has posted, and try to pinpoint areas of possible negative regression (three-point efficiency), as well as spots where improvement can be expected (transition scoring). Lastly, they ask and attempt to answer the questions: is the Raptors' offense going to keep this up for the rest of the season? Tune in to find out!

In Episode 881, Sean goes solo to discuss the Raptors' 128-113 win over the Grizzlies on Monday night on the backs of Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet and Norman Powell. He dives off the top into the remarkable recent play of Siakam, who with 32 points and six assists in Memphis on 11-of-18 shooting (5-of-8 from three) continued to make the case that he's very much back to his old form from last year. Then, Sean addresses the very poor center play the Raptors got against the Grizzlies, as Jonas Valanciunas kind of had his way with Aron Baynes and Chris Boucher. Lastly, Sean addresses the Kyle Lowry and Andre Drummond trade rumours that were floated at various outlets yesterday -- one of which is far more believable than the other.
