The Toronto Raptors handed the Atlanta Hawks a beatdown on the road in their season opener on Wednesday, and executed their intended play style perfectly on their way to a 138-118 final score. In Episode 1967, Sean Woodley is joined by Katie Heindl (Basketball Feelings, NBA TV) to talk about their biggest takeaways from the Toronto Raptors thrilling season opener. Off the top, they chat about why this game was a perfect reflection of Toronto's intended winning formula, from each guy's individual contributions to the way team's connectivity as a whole helped them rout a disconnected Hawks team. Next, they chat about Toronto's ultra-aggressive defense which led to a bunch of steals and transition opportunities -- but did they foul too much? Plus, some thoughts on a two-way force of a night from Scottie Barnes. Lastly, they run through The Good, The Bad and The Hmm from the Raptors' season opener. Discord: https://discord.gg/k36dSRgcSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!DoorDashNext time someone goes off for 50, use promo code NBA50the next day to get 50% off on DoorDash with DashPass — plus your shot at the Bag Drop.DashPass members only. 50% off up to $10 the day after a 50-point game with promo code.

In Episode 1966, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about what excites him about finally getting to watch a Raptors season with real stakes once again, and why the lack of a high ceiling for this Raptors team doesn't preclude them from being a fun team that can have a season full of forward progress. Next, Sean rattles through some last-minute preseason predictions through his classic Toxic Positivity lens, as he dishes thoughts on Immanuel Quickley's impending redemption arc, RJ Barrett's future with the Raptors, the team's transition dominance, their evolving shot profile, and why this team should pummel the league's dregs. Lastly, Sean lays out his one through 15 prediction for the Eastern Conference this season, and makes his NBA Finals prediction. Discord: https://discord.gg/k36dSRgcOver/Under Contest -- GET YOUR ENTRIES IN BEFORE TIP-OFF TONIGHT! https://forms.gle/4w94LyM15ra2EGF5ASupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!DoorDashNext time someone goes off for 50, use promo code NBA50the next day to get 50% off on DoorDash with DashPass — plus your shot at the Bag Drop.DashPass members only. 50% off up to $10 the day after a 50-point game with promo code.

The Toronto Raptors closed out their preseason schedule with a 119-114 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Friday as Scottie Barnes dropped 31 points on 10/15 shooting. In Episode 1964, Sean Woodley goes solo to recap the Raptors' preseason finale and talk about why Barnes' effort in the game laid out the blueprint for how he can succeed this coming season. Off the top, Sean digs into how Barnes managed to rack up a 31-6-4-3-1 line on incredible efficiency, why it should serve as the blueprint for the way he can impact winning at a high level this season, and why Brandon Ingram's end-of-game dagger was indicative of how much better this team context is for Barnes to operate within than it's been in years past. Next, Sean gets into some of the rotation patterns that revealed themselves in the final preseason game, including the interesting decision to hold Jakob Poeltl out of clutch time. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (RJ Barrett, streamlining again), The Bad (backcourt rim finishing) and The Hmmm (Goodbye, Ulrich Chomche) to round out the show. Discord: https://discord.gg/qnmY8GahOpening Night Watch Party RSVP: https://forms.gle/b3nS4fEtbLcbRgny9Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!DoorDashNext time someone goes off for 50, use promo code NBA50the next day to get 50% off on DoorDash with DashPass — plus your shot at the Bag Drop.DashPass members only. 50% off up to $10 the day after a 50-point game with promo code.

The local experts from the Locked On NBA Channel kick off the Locked On NBA Squad Show East by breaking down which team the Eastern Conference runs through after major injuries to the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers. Join Nick Angstadt, Tony East (Locked On Pacers), Gavin Schall (Locked On Knicks), Philip Rossman-Reich (Locked On Magic), David Ramil (Locked On Heat), and a cameo from Matt Moore (Locked On NBA) as they debate if the New York Knicks or Cleveland Cavaliers are the true favorites, analyzing their playoff track records, roster upgrades, and coaching changes. The conversation explores how Orlando Magic, with Desmond Bane, fits into the East's hierarchy, and whether the Atlanta Hawks’ revamped roster can climb into the contender tier. They also discuss Milwaukee’s current scenario with Giannis Antetokounmpo and if a mid-season trade is possible, consider the competitive outlook of other squads like Detroit Pistons and Philadelphia 76ers, and share insights on projected playoff matchups and depth across the conference. Throughout the episode, the hosts offer spirited analysis and big takes about the evolving landscape of the NBA’s Eastern Conference.0:00 East Preview: Knicks vs. Cavs Favorites9:16 Cleveland Roster Optimizations12:04 Giannis' Future and Milwaukee's Playoff Scenarios16:43 Knicks Trade Assets and Giannis Value19:31 Orlando Magic: True #3 in East?22:09 Sixers & Embiid Health Doubts25:26 Atlanta Hawks' Offseason Moves33:45 Detroit Pistons: Underrated Threat36:15 Heat’s Best-Case Scenario42:06 Toronto Raptors’ Depth and Playoff Potential46:04 Charlotte Hornets: Lamelo’s Development48:32 Wizards’ Youth Movement and Veteran Influence49:55 Brooklyn Nets: Worst Team in East? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

The Toronto Raptors FINALLY saw their starting five of Immanuel Quickley, RJ Barrett, Brandon Ingram, Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl play together, and it was a bit of mixed bag! In Episode 1962, Sean Woodley goes solo to recap a 110-108 preseason loss to the Boston Celtics with a focus on the three shifts the starters got to play with one another. Off the top, Sean digs into how after a brutal start with some ugly offense and disconnected defense, the Raptors starters found some semblance of footing in the second and third quarters. There's simply too much talent here for it not to be a passable lineup. Next, Sean digs into Scottie Barnes 3/13 effort that brings his preseason shooting line to an ugly 6/30. Is it possible Barnes has simply become the worst finisher in the history of pro basketball? No, probably not, but he's certainly gotta start connecting if the starters are going to hit their ceiling. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (starters plus bench guy looks), The Bad (The Celtics!) and The Hmmm (the Raptors' positively normal three-point volume in the preseason). Discord: https://discord.gg/qnmY8GahOpening Night Watch Party RSVP Form: https://forms.gle/BVWhKbWEfCrhcJdv5Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

Could the Toronto Raptors be one of the NBA's most surprising teams this season? In Episode 1961, Sean Woodley goes solo to field a bunch of mailbag questions from you, the listeners! Off the top, Sean digs into a question about whether the Raptors have a chance to surprise with their results this season, and talks about the odds that this clearly becomes Brandon Ingram's team by season end. Next, Sean talks about whether the Raptors will be more open to playing different defensive coverages this season compared to how rigid they were last year, the idea of playing Ingram with four bench players for stretches of games, and whether RJ Barrett's fast chemistry with Ingram changes the Raptors' plans with Barrett going forward. Lastly, Sean talks about team records that could be broken by the Raptors this season, whether adding prime Kyle Lowry to this team would make the Raptors contenders, and which teams might arise as the Raptors' closest rivals as they return to being competitive. Discord: https://discord.gg/qnmY8GahOpening Night Watch Party RSVP Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeeLWqEJXET2haJ8T_v4iNnJClRbQE3I0cvKyDRzeLbS_-aTA/viewform?usp=headerSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

The Toronto Raptors won a pair of preseason thrillers over the Thanksgiving long weekend against the Boston Celtics and Washington Wizards. In Episode 1960, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Raptors in 7) to talk about their takeaways from the weekend that was, including their thoughts on an improved but not quite fully optimized Scottie Barnes in his second preseason outing, Gradey Dick rounding into form, and the thrilling finishes in both games that featured some slick late-game play design by Darko Rajakovic. Off the top, they chat about another inefficient Barnes night as he shot just 3/11 from the field, and discuss why it was heartening to see him settle in and bring the heat in the second quarter on Sunday's game against the Wizards after a pretty lifeless opening frame. His integration into this version of the team's offense very much remains a work in progress, but it was nice to see some baby steps forward. Plus, they talk about a hot-shooting weekend from Gradey Dick, and just how good he needs to be on offense to make it justifiable to play him and his defensive deficiencies. Lastly, they run through The Good (Chucky Hepburn, clutch finishes), The Bad (Collin Murray-Boyles taking an injury, benching dudes in a home preseason game) and The Hmmm (Dick's offensive rebounding, the race for the 15th roster spot) to close out the show. Discord: https://discord.gg/qnmY8GahOpening Night Last Supper Books Watch Party RSVP Form: https://forms.gle/KwvH1KEWVXNeCjz69Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

Brandon Ingram and RJ Barrett's fast chemistry has been one of the stories of the Toronto Raptors preseason so far; can the rest of the starters begin to work in harmony, too? In Episode 1959, Sean Woodley is joined by long-time friend of the show Joe Wolfond for a wide-ranging conversation about the fast connection build between Ingram and Barrett, how Scottie Barnes can be folded into the fun, where Jakob Poeltl fits into the picture and much more! Off the top, they chat about why Barrett and Ingram seem to have gelled so quickly, the ways they can better incorporate Scottie Barnes into the mix, and whether Jakob Poeltl's lack of shooting might be an inhibitor to the Raptors finding success with the starting five. Plus, they get into whether the Raptors will be better on offense or defense this season, the team's hyper-aggressive defensive scheme and the trade-offs and upshots to it, and how the team can use their defense to fuel transition play. Lastly, they chat about some things that they're super excited for based on the early returns of the preseason, including Collin Murray-Boyles doing everything, and the way Toronto's youthful shadow core seems to be coming into form. Discord: https://discord.gg/k72xysmnSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!QuoSee why over 90,000 businesses trust Quo, formerly OpenPhone.

The Toronto Raptors comfortably handled the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday night to move to 1-1 in the NBA preseason, and the team's depth really shone through. In Episode 1958, Sean Woodley goes solo to react the 130-122 victory over the Kings in a game where both Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl sat out. Off the top, Sean gets into the way the Raptors' projected bench dudes -- Collin Murray-Boyles, Ja'Kobe Walter, Ochai Agbaji, Gradey Dick and Sandro Mamukelashvili all showed out in the victory, and hinted at the contributions they should be able to make when playing alongside Toronto's starters in staggered lineups once the regular season rolls around. Next, Sean talks about Brandon Ingram's 21-6-3 night featuring 5 threes on 7 tries, and why he looked much more comfortable and incorporated into the Raptors offense than he did on Monday night. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (0.5 decision making), The Bad (2-point scoring) and The Hmmm (Collin Murray-Boyles dishing six dimes) to round out the show. Discord: https://discord.gg/k72xysmnSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!QuoSee why over 90,000 businesses trust Quo, formerly OpenPhone.

Scottie Barnes scored just a single point in the Toronto Raptors preseason opener, but it is by no means time to panic. In Episode 1957, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about the fan base's vitriolic response to Barnes' quiet preseason opener, and gets into all the reasons why it's extremely stupid to use one preseason game as confirmation that he stinks or isn't going to live up to his new max contract. Off the top, Sean gets into what didn't work in the first preseason game for him on offense, why it was very much a different brand of struggle from what we saw Barnes endure last season, and why it was pretty predictable for a guy adapting to a new role in a team with a new lead offensive option. Next, Sean looks back at Barnes' career and all the different iterations of his offensive package that we've seen that can be picked from to build out his new offensive role. Lastly, Sean get a little mad! This fan base loves to dump on dudes for not being a no-doubt leading man superstar and misses a whole lot of good and enjoyable stuff as a result! We can simply not do this, you know! GAH. Discord: https://discord.gg/k72xysmnSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!QuoSee why over 90,000 businesses trust Quo, formerly OpenPhone.

The Toronto Raptors lost to the Denver Nuggets to open their preseason schedule in Vancouver on Monday night, but the real takeaway was how good Brandon Ingram looked! In Episode 1956, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob recap the Raptors' 112-108 preseason loss to Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets on Monday that featured clean games from Brandon Ingram and RJ Barrett, some struggles for Scottie Barnes and the half court offense as a whole, and some really impressive work from the bench. Sean and Vivek dig into the process behind Ingram's 19 points on 6/12 shooting and discuss the struggles of the rest of the starters on offense, before diving into some thoughts on how to better involve Scottie Barnes in the offense. Next, they dive into some huge overreactions to the opener. Is Sando Mamukelashvili about to win Sixth Man of the Year? Is Gradey Dick's job under threat? And are the Raptors about to lead the NBA steals?! Move over OKC! Lastly, they run through The Good, The Bad and The Hmmmm from the first preseason game. Discord: https://discord.gg/k72xysmnSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!QuoSee why over 90,000 businesses trust Quo, formerly OpenPhone.

The Toronto Raptors kick off their preseason schedule TONIGHT as they take on the Denver Nuggets in Vancouver! In Episode 1955, Sean Woodley goes solo to run through the things he's most keen on watching as the Raptors finally take the floor after an interminable offseason. Off the top, Sean talks about why it's the new guys -- Collin Murray-Boyles and Brandon Ingram -- who will be the most interesting thing to tune in to watch tonight. Can Murray-Boyles make good on the hype with a stop or two against Nikola Jokic? And how will Brandon Ingram's arrival change the shape of the Raptors' defense? Next, Sean talks about why he's got an eye fixed on the battle for minute at the two-guard spot between RJ Barrett, Gradey Dick, Ochai Agbaji and Ja'Kobe Walter. Lastly, Sean discusses why he's stoked to see Darko Rajakovic toy with fun bench lineups, and to get a sense of how Darko would like to run a rotation over the course of 82 competitive games.Discord: https://discord.gg/xnCs25TfSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!QuoSee why over 90,000 businesses trust Quo, formerly OpenPhone.

If you could wish one thing upon each member of the Toronto Raptors in order for this season to be a success, what would it be?! In Episode 1954, Sean Woodley makes one wish for every member of the Raptors ahead of the 2025-26 season, and also does a very good Tom Delonge impression. Off the top, Sean talks talks about wanting to see Scottie Barnes simplify, Immanuel Quickley regain his floater touch, and Brandon Ingram simply just say healthy. Plus, Sean runs through wishes for every other member of the team, including RJ Barrett, who needs to improve his off-ball awareness, Gradey Dick, who should be Gradey Dunk more like, and Collin Murray-Boyles, who needs to surrounded by shooting. All that, and much more on a pretty stupid episode featuring a pretty fun Stupid Little Game. Discord: https://discord.gg/xnCs25TfSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

Toronto Raptors wing RJ Barrett is getting set to kick off what could be a career-defining season. Will he prove he can be a key piece on a winner, or are his days in Toronto numbered? In Episode 1953, Sean Woodley goes solo to set the stage for RJ Barrett's second full season with the Raptors and lay out what's at stake for the Mississauga native. After a brief moment to comment upon the new canonical nickname for Collin Murray-Boyles, Sean outlines why this season is so crucial for Barrett as the team looks to move into a competitive window. Next, Sean details why there's no way RJ's getting the full 3-year, $132 million extension he's eligible for, and the flaws in his game that have kept him from being someone who seriously impacts winning. Lastly, Sean highlights the things RJ's done since coming to Toronto could totally come together to make him a part of the Raptors' long-term vision. It'll be a tough financial needle to thread, but if he's helping the team win, maybe it can all work out? Discord: https://discord.gg/xnCs25TfRSVP to the Last Supper Books Watch Party on Oct 22! https://forms.gle/DAcr912mWs7g8TyP7Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

The Toronto Raptors second unit should feature all kinds of competition for minutes and expanded roles, and that seems to be just fine with head coach Darko Rajaković. In Episode 1952, Sean Woodley and Chelsea Leite (Raptors HQ) chat about the Raptors second unit and attempt the rank the team's reserve in order of most to least likely to be rotation mainstays this season. Off the top, they chat about Gradey Dick, who figures to be the closest thing this team has to a true sixth man after carrying far too much offensive burden last year. Plus, will Ochai Agbaji be a Mr. Reliable again, or could he end up being the odd man out if the roster crunches before the trade deadline? Next, they chat about Collin Murray-Boyles and why he seems destined to play a bunch off the bench this season, especially after his coach sung his praises at Media Day. Lastly, they chat about last years' rookie crop of Jamal Shead, Ja'Kobe Walter, Jamison Battle and Jonathan Mogbo, all of whom are likely to have to earn their minutes over simply being handed them. Discord: https://discord.gg/xnCs25TfSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

The Toronto Raptors are not generally viewed favourably by the national media, and that holds true as Dave DuFour of The Athletic NBA Daily joins the show! In Episode 1951, Sean Woodley and Dave DuFour talk about the Raptors' odds of making the Top-6 in the East, breakout candidates on the team, and what to expect from Sandro Mamukelashvili, who Dave once coached as an assistant for the Georgian National Team. Off the top, Sean and Dave chat about whether Dave's buying the Raptors as a potential Top-6 team in a wide open Eastern Conference. Next, they chat about potential breakout candidates, including a refreshed Scottie Barnes and MAMU! Lastly, they get into the ways Mamu can help unlock some of the Raptors' wing-heavy lineups after Darko Rajakovic talked about just that on media day. Discord: https://discord.gg/xnCs25TfSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

Off then top, they chat about how utterly normal this year's Media Day was, which is a breath of fresh air after the strangeness of the last couple years. Plus, they talk about the team's hyperfocus on defensive improvement, and why the importance of conditioning was another throughline of the day. Next, they revisit Bobby Webster's season-opening presser on Friday, and discuss Webster's comments on the roster likely looking different by season's end, and wanting more from RJ Barrett raised their eyebrows. Lastly, they play the Media Day Smell Test. Which platitudes delivered on Monday are worth putting stock into, and which were classic Media Day bluster. Discord: https://discord.gg/xnCs25TfSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

The one it spells doom for is RJ. I'm furious. They are now going to flip him for .40 on the dollar for some middling centre that 'fits our system perfectly'. He's been nothing but great and now they've drafted his replacement. I can't believe they passed on Maluach, for this crap scenario. RJ deserves so much better.
