The Toronto Raptors host the New York Knicks in the NBA Cup Quarterfinals tonight -- and they'll need to pull out all the stops to take down one of the Eastern Conference's best teams. In Episode 1999, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob discuss their unironic excitement for single-elimination basketball, the the impact of the various injuries both teams are dealing with coming into the game (RJ Barrett, Jamal Shead, Karl-Anthony Towns, Deuce McBride), and why the Raptors absolutely cannot afford to get off to another poor start. Next, Sean and Vivek chat about the matchups they've got an eye on in this game. Is Ja'Kobe Walter the team's chief Jalen Brunson stopper? Can Brandon Ingram succeed if OG Anunoby is guarding him? Can the Raptors find a way to hunt Brunson by going big? And what about the importance of Immanuel Quickley as a screener? Lastly, they chat about whether the Raptors should hack Mitchell Robinson (who's shooting 17.6% from the line this year), stealth key players for the Raptors (AJ Lawson time?), whether losing the game will come with the silver lining of getting the team some much needed rest, and their final predictions for the game.
