Scottie Barnes returned to the lineup and the Toronto Raptors took down Anthony Edwards, Rudy Gobert and the Minnesota Timberwolves 110-105 to earn their second straight win and move to 4-12 on the season. In Episode 1754, Sean Woodley goes solo to break down the Raptors win, share some thoughts on the blissful stage this team is at in its life cycle, discuss Scottie Barnes' return to the lineup, the power of functional depth, Jonathan Mogbo playing beyond his years and much more! Off the top, Sean digs into why this team is a win-win enterprise right now, with wins and losses provided equal reason for optimism. His advice: enjoy the ride. Then, Sean talks about what he noticed from Barnes' return, his whip-smart defense, and how he makes life easier for everyone else. Next, Sean talks about the Raptors' new starting five of Barnes, RJ Barrett, Ochai Agbaji, Gradey Dick and Jakob Poeltl, why better runs than they had last night lie ahead, and how Davion Mitchell and Chris Boucher are now better equipped to succeed in their roles. Having lots of useful players doing things they're capable of: it's great! Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Jonathan Mogbo), The Bad (transition offense) and The Hmmmm (the defense slowly creeping up the charts) to round out the show.
