The TSV Podcast - "Thank You Kawhi" - Toronto Raptors Talk - July 7th, 2019
We are back with Episode 7 of The TSV Podcast...one that I never hoped I would have to record. Kawhi is officially gone, no longer to be a Toronto Raptor. Instead, he goes back home to play for the Clippers and team up with Paul George. In this solo edition of the podcast, I discuss the following:
* Recap the history of Kawhi as a Raptor, from the day of the trade to the day of his departure, and everything in between.
* What Kawhi meant (and still means) to the city, country, organization, and basketball as a whole.
* The Clippers: how were they able to pull off the Paul George trade, and the Raptors couldn't? Are they the best team in the NBA? Will I cheer for them?
* The Raptors: Where do they go from here? What is in their future plans? What about this year? Are they still a playoff team? Should they retool or go for another run again?
* Giannis to Toronto 2021 begins now.

The TSV Podcast - "The Shot" - Toronto Raptors Talk - May 15th, 2019
Welcome back to Episode 6 of The TSV Podcast! We were joined by a very special guest, Adam Corsair of South of the 6ix! It was a jammed packed show that included the following:
“The Shot”
· Is it fair to compare “The Shot” to “The Bat Flip”, or should they be left alone and both appreciated separately?
NBA Draft Lottery
· Would the Knicks have been smart to traded away the number one overall pick if they did get it? (Future self knows they don’t, but the draft lottery had not transpired at the time of recording)
Raps vs Sixers series
· THE SHOT: What our thoughts were as we saw this go down live
· Key takeaways from that series. What we saw that we liked and what we saw that we want to have improved before the series with the Bucks gets underway.
Raps vs Bucks series
· Paul Pierce picking the Raps in 6 so we are screwed…
· Before we dive into the actual series…do we think that the Bucks are the best team in the NBA? Or does that title still belong to G…
