  1. The defense is the biggest thing for me, if the effort is there, they will win some games. The offensive pace was instilled last year, D is the focus, if we hit shots, I feel more positive than I was 2 weeks ago. There is a good positive vibe, a team spirit that has been lacking since before the covid bubble. Shead is a wolverine, im to old for Pokémon

  2. This was really obnoxious. Let's list the ways. Why was Will pressing Samson to say how much money he makes? The way Will talked about "building houses in Mexico" came off very problematic. Then there was the whole portion of "we're friends with Blake" but also "let's crap on the written work at SportsNet because ours is so much more intellectual." Very little discussion of the actual game that was played. Just because two people work for the same company doesn't mean they should collaborate. Don't watch these for Will to interview Samson. Forced and awkward.

  3. Love hearing from Samson always. At least one time every video I learn a new basketball play I’ve never heard of. Was actually for sure that he would join Blake at Sportsnet. That would’ve been sick.

  4. This is very convenient. Used to have to watch both of yoy seperately.. Can't wait to see Will get heated and have Samson dish some calm cool philosophy to put things in perspective! Great duo

  5. Great show! I too am a firm Shead fan. A Shead Head if you will. His energy and intensity are awesome to watch. And I did not expect Ochai to come in so much more confident but I am loving it. Last year he was having trouble just finishing gimmes and now he's cutting hard and finishing well. A reliable three ball would be nice but I'm okay with taking little steps towards improvement

    And I'm real glad that the acquisition seems like it'll be putting Samson and the others at RR in a good financial spot. There are way too many ppl in general being underpaid for their work so to know that one of the best places for Raptors content has and continues to take care of their own is encouraging to hear
