The Raptors are fun again! Breaking down a joyful Raptors win over the Grizzlies w/ Jamar Hinds

In Episode 1548, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic) to break down the Toronto Raptors' 116-111 win over the Memphis Grizzlies that will forever be known as the first Immanuel Quickley Game. Off the top, Sean and Jamar chat about Quickley's 26-point, 5-assist effort in his second game with the Raptors and discuss the element of fun and joy he's already infused into the team, and dig into some of the promising interplay he had with Scottie Barnes, Jakob Poeltl and more. Next, they dig into some positive progress on the defense end of the floor, with Quickley, RJ Barrett and Jakob Poeltl serving as the notable standouts in a night that could have looked even better without some unseasonably warm shooting by Jaren Jackson Jr. and Ziaire Williams. Lastly, Sean and Jamar run through The Good (RJ Barrett's driving, Pascal Siakam and Scottie Barnes not needing to do everything), The Bad (Dennis Schroder & Barrett's decision-making) and The Hmmm (Jontay Porter's debut, just how far might the Raptors climb in the East?) to round out the show.
