Raptors starters struggle in disappointing loss to Brooklyn Nets w/ Katie Heindl

In Episode 1524, Sean Woodley is joined by Katie Heindl (DIME, Basketball Feelings) to chat about the Toronto Raptors dropping their final In-Season Tournament game to the Brooklyn Nets 115-103 on Tuesday night. Off the top, they chat about a really poor performance from a starting unit that the Raptors simply can't afford to get poor performances from, and dig into how the Nets defense felt specifically designed to prevent the Raptors from getting to the spots they need to get to. Next, they chat about the Raptors' defensive slippage of late, especially in transition, and how the defense came entirely unspooled in the late going against Brooklyn when they went to Scottie Barnes at the five in the final four minutes. Plus, some Napoleon talk? Lastly, they dig into The Good (OG Anunoby's game-ending three, Chris Boucher's performance in not enough minutes), the Bad (washing out of the In-Season Tournament, bad gold quarter zips) and the Hmmmm (Scottie Barnes' recent slump, the Raptors never feeling part of the IST) to round out the show.
