The Toronto Raptors take on the Cleveland Cavaliers in a pivotal Game 5 tonight -- and Jamal Shead is a huge reason why the Raptors are in the position they're in. In Episode 2098, Sean Woodley goes solo to answer mailbag questions from you, the freaks! Off the top, Sean digs into why Jamal Shead's incredible impact despite almost zero offensive utility has been the most surprising development of the first round so far. Plus, has Scottie Barnes been the best player in the series? And has Collin Murray-Boyles beaten out Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen to be the best big man in the series to date? Next, Sean fields a question about how these playoffs might alter the shape of the Raptors' offseason, whether RJ Barrett's play in the series has made Sean more comfortable with the idea of extending him this summer, and whether he'd rather see the Orlando Magic or Detroit Pistons in a hypothetical second round series. Lastly, Sean answers questions about whether the Raptors should be after a guard in the playoffs, Brandon Ingram's impact, names for Sean's household cooking tools and which playoff series around the league have been Sean's favourite before offering some final thoughts on why the NBA's proposed lottery reforms are good.
