The NBA Cup is here, and the 2-9 Toronto Raptors kick their cup quest off on Tuesday night against the 2-8 Milwaukee Bucks to close out their extended road trip -- do they have a shot at coming out of Eastern Conference Group B ahead of the Bucks, Miami Heat, Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers? In Episode 1746, Sean Woodley is joined by James Herbert (CBS Sports) to talk about the Cup concept and how it's worked going into year two, the Raptors' chances of competing in Group B in the East, the field they'll be competing against, and how they envision the rest of the groups in the East and West shaking out ahead of the grand conclusion in Vegas next month.
