Raptors look a lot better in Game 2 vs. Cavs, but not better enough | Brandon Ingram lays an ill-timed egg w/ Vivek Jacob
Description
The Toronto Raptors looked much improved compared to Game 1 in their 115-105 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 2, but while they played better, they weren't better enough. In Episode 2092, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob break down how the Raptors' showed signs of life in Game 2, why turnover trouble undid most of that good, Brandon Ingram's brutal outing and much more. Off the top, they chat about the Raptors' much improved process on defense and in kickstarting their transition game, as well as Scottie Barnes discovering the kind of downhill rim pressure he needs to be at his most effective. For all the good they did, 22 turnovers and some remarkable Cavs shot-making left them coming up short once again -- but did they lay out a blueprint to make this a series as it shifts back to Toronto? Next, they talk about Brandon Ingrams' brutal, turnover-heavy, 3/15 shooting night and how the Raptors can better utilize their big shot maker as the series progresses. Plus, should Ingram have been on the floor to close the game? Lastly, they run through The Good (Darko Rajakovic, RJ Barrett), The Bad (Jakob Poeltl and his contract, Jamal Shead) and The Hmm (start Ja'Kobe Walter over Shead? Mogbo or Battle time?) to round out the show.
