Toxic Positivity Friday! Jonathan Mogbo's ROY Campaign, expanded IQ & what LeBronto GOOD actually?

The Toronto Raptors are without Scottie Barnes, but that can't dampen Toxic Positivity Friday, especially not on a weekend where LeBron James is coming to town and Vince Carter is getting his jersey retired. In Episode 1739, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about the silver linings of Scottie Barnes being out the lineup, Jonathan Mogbo's pathway to a serious Rookie of the Year case with Barnes out of the lineup for extended time, Immanuel Quickley getting the kes to the team upon his return, and a weekend that will be full of nostalgia as LeBron James and Vince Carter, two major figures in Raptors history, will be in town for very different reasons. Off the top Sean dives into why Mogbo getting to start in Barnes' place not only makes sense, but sets him up to rack up the kinds of numbers that could vault him into Rookie of the Year contention is a down year for first-year guys. Next, Sean talks about the heavy offensive burden Immanuel Quickley is going to carry in Barnes' absence once he returns to action, and what that'll be a good thing in the long run. Lastly, Sean talks about the upcoming Vince Carter jersey retirement on Saturday, and why LeBron James coming to town on Friday is a nice bit of a symmetry on a weekend where the imperfect history of the Raptors will be celebrated as it ought to be.
