from The Mike Roach Show · host Mike Roach

In this latest episode, Mike breaks down the key areas where the Raptors need improvement particularly tightening up their perimeter defense to limit Boston's hot outside shooting. He also digs into the ongoing question of where that extra defensive toughness and grit will come from moving forward, especially against a strong offensive team like the Celtics.Shoutouts go to the players who stepped up after being called up from the Raptors 905, delivering solid contributions despite the short-handed roster (with key absences like Scottie Barnes, Brandon Ingram, and Jakob Poeltl).The episode also covers the tough break of RJ Barrett exiting the game in the fourth quarter with a left ankle injury he was ruled out for the rest of the contest and will undergo further evaluation.Finally, a big thank you to all the subscribers for the continued love and support—it's greatly appreciated!Tune in for the full recap, analysis, and insights! 🔔 Don't forget to hit that subscribe button and tap the notification bell so you never miss an update! 🔔🌟 Follow me on social media for more content and behind-the-scenes looks: Instagram: [@mikeroach7](https://www.instagram.com/mikeroach7)TikTok: [@the1mikeroach](https://www.tiktok.com/@the1mikeroach)Twitter: [@mikeroach23](https://twitter.com/mikeroach23)
