Raptors Unravel in Second Half, AL East Hierarchy & Bill Polian Speaks

Ben Ennis and Daniele Franceschi open Thursday's show by breaking down the Raptors’ blowout loss to the Knicks. They focus on Toronto's second half collapse, the team's offensive inconsistency, and what this game says about their place in the Eastern Conference hierarchy. They also discuss the team’s need for shooting, Collin Murray-Boyles’ impressive play in Jakob Poeltl’s absence, and how recent losses may influence the Raptors’ trade deadline approach. After the break, the guys react to Brian Cashman’s comments on the Yankees’ offseason, debate shifts in the AL East landscape, and assess the Blue Jays’ standing and New York’s chances next season. The hour wraps with a discussion of Bill Polian’s Hall of Fame vote and the ongoing debate around Bill Belichick’s missing out on his first ballot.
