Are the Toronto Raptors better now than they were at this time last year?

In Episode 1373, Sean Woodley and Louis Zatzman take a look at the Toronto Raptors’ late season improvement (16-10 since the start of February) and ask whether or not there has been enough improvement to inspire confidence in the team beyond this season. Off the top, they chat about where things have improved since Jakob Poeltl’s arrival, where things still need work, and why they’ve probably proven enough to avoid massive player personnel changes this summer. Next, they ask the simple question: is the current version of the team better than the team that stormed its way to the 5th-seed a year ago? The answer may surprise you! Plus, Sean and Louis chat about Pascal Siakam’s adjustment period to playing with Jakob Poeltl, why more shooting on the roster would benefit him more than just about anyone on the team, and why despite the imperfect fit, Siakam should still be part of the team going forward. Lastly, Sean chats with Louis about the things they’re most excited or interested watch in the final week of the season and post-season, including Precious Achiuwa, and the glorious sports occurrence that is a single-elimination game.
