Why early season injuries are helping the Raptors sharpen their roster for the long haul
Description
The Toronto Raptors lost 118-102 to the Memphis Grizzlies as they continue to fight the injury bug, but can this early season shorthanded spell help the team in the long run? In Episode 2225, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about the loss to Memphis and the moral victories within, including Jamal Shead continuing to find his groove after a slow start, and Jakob Poeltl turning in a second strong outing in a row; can these early season injuries help the Raptors sharpen the deeper corners of their roster? Next, Sean gets into an underwhelming game from RJ Barrett, why his offensive struggles aren't really a surprise considering how much heavy lifting he's being asked to do, and why his defensive issues are a far bigger concern in the grand scheme. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Jamison Battle throwing heat), The Bad (TJD) and The Hmm (when will Raps opponents stop hitting all of their threes?) to round out the show.
