Review of The Raptors Show - Less Blake Murphy

Less Blake Murphy

☆

“More Blake Murphy is not a good thing! (I usually skipped the Blake Murphy Tuesdays). I’ve really enjoyed listening to this podcast, because the variety of guests provides a complete picture of each Raptors season. I like how the perspectives helps to balance one another out to paint a very clear picture. Will is very good at interviewing guests and getting more in-depth answers from them. With Blake Murphy I became a bit overwhelmed and tired of the overemphasis on stats. I like statistics because they do provide useful information, but I found that Blake’s analysis would sometimes lead to faulty conclusions and incomplete picture of the game. At the same time, over reliance on stats takes away from all of the other aspects of the game that I like from in game strategy, the psychology of the game, the growth of a team over a course of a season, player development…all of these aspects were covered brilliantly by Will, Alex and that wide variety of guests, especially from the players/coaches. I also enjoy the chemistry between Will and Alex. It’s pretty relaxing listening to them talk. Blake can be a bit intense…so I’ll give the new format a try but I don’t know if I’ll continue listening.”
