In Episode 1416, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Raptors.com) to discuss the Toronto Raptors reportedly short list of candidates for their vacant head coaching position, which per Marc Stein is down to Spain and Virtus Bologna head coach Sergio Scariolo, Sacramento Kings assistant Jordi Fernández, Grizzlies assistant Darko Rajaković & former Brooklyn Nets head coach Kenny Atkinson. Off the top, they discuss why they’re encouraged by the names remaining on the Raptors list and the outside-the-box thinking they might be able to bring to the table. Next, they discuss why the wide range of experience, head coaching an otherwise, that each of the final four possess is something to get excited about, in addition to why the European influence that three of the four candidates would bring to the table could be conducive to unlocking a Raptors team that has badly needed to implement some offensive structure, and features three above average passers at their position playing in their front court between Pascal Siakam, Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl. Lastly, they discuss whether they’d be disappointed if the Raptors go the re-tread route, whether age should be a consderation in the Raptors’ final decision, and their blind predictions for who will ultimately get the job in Toronto — something we should have closure on by the end of this week, you’d think.
