Welcome back to the Dream Team Podcast, where Jake, Zulfi and Spencer check-in on the second round of NBA Playoffs, run down each series including the injury-riddled Knicks starting to catch up to them with their series knotted at two against the Pacers, why the Nuggets are so hard to beat, if the Celtics are doomed to bow out, and more. Then, the guys react to the NBA Draft Lottery, the Raptors forfeiting their pick to the Spurs, what they should do with Scottie Barnes’ max extension looming. Later, Jake asks if the Raptors should take a flyer on Bronny James with the news of him officially commiting to the NBA Draft, and if LeBron signing to Toronto is good for their long-term health before going over their way too early picks for the 2024 NBA Awards which…have not aged well.

Welcome back to the Dream Team Podcast, where we discuss Darko Rajaković’s hiring, and discuss the press conference that the four of us attended. We break down whether or not his hiring means a rebuilding or a retooling, our initial thoughts on him, and what the future holds for Fred VanVleet, and if we want to see him back in a Raptors jersey. We then break down the various rumours swirling around the 2-4 picks in the NBA Draft, from the Bulls, to the Wizards, to the Pelicans, and finally look at the Ringer’s Top 125 players and roast it alive. It’s a movie lengthen episode, but man is it worth it.

Welcome back to The Dream Team Podcast! In this episode, the crew gather on a muggy Toronto morning to talk about the Heat knotting the NBA Finals at 1-1, while giving their thoughts on what worked, and what didn’t, and their PROFESSIONAL opinions on who’s taking Game 3. They also give Carmello Anthony his flowers after he called his 19-year-long career, discuss whether he should have his jersey retired, and round out with the most recent NBA coach hirings, and what in the name of all things good the Toronto Raptors are doing with their vacancy. Jake rounds out the podcast discussing LeBron possibly moving to the Dallas Mavericks, and sets the team off on a tangent after he ends the podcast in the most chaotic ending possible. Basically, just another Tuesday.
