Keeping it real but staying positive about this season has some tough moments but this week, despite the Raptors losing to the Nuggets we find some nice things to mention.

This week host Cathryn Naiker is joined by NBA writer extraordinaire Vivek Jacob to discuss Team USA's prospective roaster. Is this the Millenial Dream Team? What chance does Canada have against this all-time roaster? Then they discuss LeBron and Bronny James. Will Bronny enter the draft, or should he? What do we think of LeBron's statement asking people to leave Bronny alone? More tension is brewing between teams and referees. We got another epic coach rant this time courtesy of the Piston's Monty Williams. Do we think the league needs to adjust the rules around end-of-game reviews? As award season approaches the 65-game rule is having its impact. Vivek talks about the article we wrote about this rule, how it's affecting the league, and argues to eliminate back-to-back games. Then in our Raptors homer moment, we talk about the team playing well together and should that alter their goals for the remainder of the season? should they go for the play-in or hold onto this draft pick that was traded to San Antonio?

Host Cathryn Naiker is joined by Canada Basketball's Crina Mustafa.
