Ja'Kobe Walter cans the winner as Raptors youths defy the tank in 114-113 win vs. Magic

The Toronto Raptors took down the Orlando Magic 114-113 on Tuesday night in an extremely bizarre basketball game that featured some pretty blatant tanking by the Raptors, a crew of third-stringers that flipped the bird to the idea of losing on purpose. In Episode 1820, Sean goes solo to talk about what fun the game ended up being despite the strange circumstances, and why the Raptors are probably doing the best they can do right now to find some sort of balance in their tank job. Scottie Barnes has a 65 game threshold to hit in hopes of an unlikely super max. Immanuel Quickley is finally getting to play games, and he's playing well -- can you really quit that cold turkey? It's weird, and uncomfortable at times, but if the team is on board and understanding of the larger goal here, then maybe it's possible this formula works for the Raptors the rest of the way? Sean also talks about Raptors' core guys all turning in strong efforts, Gradey Dick's injury prognosis, RJ and the bench, AJ Lawson and more! Discord: https://discord.gg/dkfkprKkNewsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!
