About this listen

In Episode 1421, Sean Woodley reacts to the Toronto Raptors hiring the 44-year-old Darko Rajaković to become the franchise's 10th head coach, and then welcomes in Damichael Cole of Locked On Grizzlies to discuss what Rajaković will bring to Toronto after spending the last three seasons as the top assistant with Memphis. Off the top, Sean digs into why the hiring is super exciting, and represents a massive shift away from the style of play and big picture philosophies present during the tail end of the Nick Nurse era. Next, Damichael Cole stops by to discuss what Rajaković is like as a person, why player developement is the area in which he excels the most, and the work he's done to faciliate development across the Grizzlies roster, but in particular with burgeoning star guard Desmond Bane. Plus, they discuss Rajaković's focus on empowering players and communicating effectively, and the ways in which the Grizzlies teams he worked for overcame their notable lack of spacing to create solid offense.
