The Ave Podcast with Cal Cee. Episode 193: 2022 State of The Raptors Address

Today on The Ave Podcast, we present the 2022 State of the Raptors Address, the 6th annual podcast episode that breaks down the surprising Raptors journey during this NBA season. I invite SSA Family Members Julian aka Jules Da Commish & Randall Walter (HC of Excel Hoop’s Prep Basketball Program) as we discuss the highs and lows of the Raptors first half of the NBA Season. We break down’s Fred VanVleet’s emergence; the happy & unexpectedly super impressive Scottie Barnes rookie year; if Pascal Siakam is back; and we dissect if the Raps Front Office has done enough for the home stretch of the season. Plus Nurse vs. Casey; some Raptors history deep diving (including which former Raps are dead to us); and everything else from the We The North squad. Buckle up, you’re about to get all the Raps talk you never knew you needed.

*For past SOTR episodes, check out last year’s, 2020, 2019, 2018 & 2017.

**This episode was originally recorded on March 10, 2022, right before the Raptors started their 3-game winning streak. Of course.

Even if they’re thousands of miles away, they’re still the home team. So please enjoy…..

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.
