Adrian Griffin & Doc Rivers, Embiid 70! Raptors Trades Cont... & More
This week Host Cathryn Naiker is joined by Esfandiar Baranheni to talk about the sudden firing of Bucks coach Adrian Griffin and the hiring of Doc Rivers! What do we think of the sudden change and does this increase Milwaukee's chances? Then we discuss Embiid scoring 70 points and look at their overall championship odds. In Portland, we talk about this bizarre end-of-game situation that has led to an official protest. What does the protest mean and do we think they'll be successful? Then in our Raptors' homer moment, we talk about who we think is likely next to be traded. Bruce Brown, Boucher, and more all seem like likely candidates. We also look at the few players we know are here and talk about future bright-spots on the team. In our Raptors Hottie Highlight of the week, Coach Darko and his wife Gaga are donating $20 for every Raptors assist to children's hospitals this season. Probably the ultimate hottie highlight.
