Episode 1348
In Episode 1340, Sean Woodley goes solo to examine some of the biggest lingering questions in the wake of the Toronto Raptors' bizarre NBA Trade Deadline in which they added Jakob Poeltl without sending out O.G. Anunoby, Fred VanVleet or Gary Trent Jr. Off the top, Sean discusses whether or not the Raptors missed their chance to trade Anunoby for a massive return. Reports from Zach Lowe and others suggest three first-round picks were on the table for the Raptors' defensive ace, but that the Raptors wanted young players in addition to picks to pull the trigger on the deal. Will the Raptors ever get the chance to secure such a haul for Anunoby again? Or does the Raptors patience perhaps represent a missed chance that will not ultimately come back to bite them, as the summer market for Anunoby could be similarly strong around the Draft. Next, Sean takes a look at whether the arrival of Poeltl will have a negative impact on the developement of Scottie Barnes and Precious Achiuwa, who have both thrived playing the position Poeltl is now set to occupy for 25+ minutes a night. Barnes' recent success has largely come as screener and roller -- will the Raptors still be able to use his skills navigating the midde of the floor with Poeltl out there? And will Precious Achiuwa's developement take a more wing-centric turn in the coming months and years alongside Jak? Lastly, Sean takes a look at the buyout market and whether the Raptors should be players in it. Terrence Ross would be fun! But is it necessary for the Raptors to add more guys to an already cluttered rotation?
