Starters struggles, Dennis Schröder meltdown cost Raptors a winnable game vs. Miami Heat w/ Jamar Hinds

Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors

Dec 7 2023 • 38 mins

In Episode 1530, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic) to chat about a frustrating Toronto Raptors loss to the Miami Heat on Wednesday night that featured huge nights from Pascal Siakam, O.G. Anunoby and Gary Trent Jr. along with a big time fourth quarter by Scottie Barnes, but was spoiled by some baffling Dennis Schröder possessions and a slow-to-react Darko Rajakovic. Off the top, Sean and Jamar dig into why Schröder's fingerprints were all over the Raptors' issues in the final minutes, as his commandeering of the offense, brutal misses and really rough defense resulted in the Heat pulling away comfortably in the waning moments of the game. Next, they dig into the prolonged issues for the Raptors' starting lineup, which hasn't really done much good since the opening week of the NBA season. Is NOW the time for the change after hitting rock bottom? Sean and Jamar dig into why they'd move to start Gary Trent Jr. in place of Schröder, and the cascading positive effects that could have on the team as a whole. Lastly, they run through the Good (Pascal Siakam, Otto Porter Jr. back in the rotation), the Bad (a really bad Dennis possession, the start of the 3rd quarter, and Darko's dinner promise) and the Hmmm (Gradey Dick's play for hte 905, a really fun lineup combo) to round out the show.
