How good can the Raptors core trio of Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley & RJ Barrett be? w/ Vivek Jacob
In Episode 1691, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Raptors in 7, Sportsnet) to talk about the Toronto Raptors' core trio of Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett, what their ceiling as the Raptors' top three players can be, and the swing skills that will need to hit for them to get where the Raptors need them to be. Off the top, Sean and Vivek dig into the overall ceiling of the BBQ trio and whether they have the juice to lead the team to perennial playoff team status, and how much stock they put into their promising numbers on the court together last season. Next, they dig into the swing skills for each player that will likely determine whether they get close to their developmental ceilings or not; Scottie Barnes' short mid-range scoring, Immanuel Quickley's rim frequency and RJ Barrett's defense all feel like pretty pivotal elements of their respective games. Lastly, Sean and Vivek chat about their expectations for the BBQ trio this coming season, what they're hoping to see from them in what is probably the last year they'll have with low expectations and sort out how the offensive hierarchy between the three could look next season.
