The Ave Podcast with Cal Cee. Episode 103: 2020 State of The Raptors Address

Today on The Ave Podcast, we present to you the 2020 State of the Raptors Address, an annual podcast episode that we do which breaks down the Raptors journey halfway through the NBA season. I invite SSA Family Members Jules Da Commish & Randall Walter (HC of Team Breakdown’s AAU Basketball program) as we discuss the *“surprisingly” successful 1st half of the Raptors season; the evolution of Pascal Siakam as well as Nick Nurse; the genius of Masai and if he’ll be in Toronto for the long-term; and what the expectations are for the Raps going forward. Plus we talk about some of the trade deadline transactions; if I’m allowed to even look at a Raps Bandwagon application; and a lot more.

* I say “Surprisingly” because there were plenty of people thinking this was a lost season. Don’t worry though, just listen to the podcast. We’ll dive into it a little deeper….
