2nd Quarter FROM HELL ruins Toronto Raptors' NBA Cup hopes & Jakob Poeltl's in a bad kinda way

The Toronto Raptors lost to the New York Knicks, 117-101 in the NBA Cup Quarterfinals on Tuesday night, thanks in large part to a miserable second quarter. In Episode 2000 (what) of the show, Sean Woodley goes solo to react to the loss, break down what went wrong in the 34-13 second frame, and discuss the encouraging things the Raptors did find that worked as the game progressed. It all started off so brilliantly with Brandon Ingram's 17 first quarter points helping stake the Raps to a 39-35 first quarter lead. But as the offense reverted back to December 2024 form without Immanuel Quickley, and the steam train that is the Knicks offense got cooking, the Raptors lost touch in the second quarter. It didn't help that Jakob Poeltl played one of the worst games of his life, Gradey Dick was a total non-factor, and that Darko Rajakovic only had 5 or 6 guys to reliably lean on. But there was some good stuff from the likes of Jamal Shead, Ja'Kobe Walter and Collin Murray-Boyles in particular. Sean also runs through The Good (the chance to rest), The Bad (Scottie Barnes' worst game of the year) and The Hmmm (Anthony Davis??) to round out the show. Discord: https://discord.gg/kx3XsEygEverydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
