The Toronto Raptors took down the Orlando Magic 109-93 on Tuesday night and Scottie Barnes turned in the kind of all-around star effort that makes you believe in him as the guy this team is building around. In Episode 1791, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Raptors in 7, Sportsnet) to talk about the Raptors win over the Magic, their comeback from being down 32-11 in the first quarter and how Scottie Barnes' fingerprints were all over it, the offensive finding its flow and much more. Off the top, they get into Barnes' 17-11-8-2-1 performance that saw him bring immense two-way impact and ask: is Barnes better this year than he was last year? Next, they chat about the Raptors' offense carving up a good Magic defense, Kelly Olynyk's awesome night, and Gradey Dick's enormous yam on Tristan da Silva. Lastly, they run through The Good (Davion Mitchell, Bruce Brown), The Bad (Jakob Poeltl) and The Hmmm (the Raptors potential involvement in a Jimmy Butler deal) to round out the show.

Will Chris Boucher, Bruce Brown or any of the Toronto Raptors other expiring players set to be on the move ahead of the NBA Trade Deadline? In Episode 1790, Sean Woodley reviews Jake Fischer's latest rumour dump which featured all kinds of noise about the Raptors potential activity ahead of the NBA Trade Deadline. Off the top, Sean digs in to the Raptors' apparently willingness to be a third-party agent to help grease high-salary trades ahead of the deadline, and the players Fischer's latest reporting suggests the Raptors are most likely to receive interest in over the course of the next couple weeks. Next, Sean talks about Chris Boucher, who could be a target of the Denver Nuggets and San Antonio Spurs per Matt Moore, while Fischer noted there's also potentially mutually interest in Boucher staying in Toronto beyond this year -- but is that a bad idea? Lastly, Sean talks about Bruce Brown, the reporting from Fischer that he could be a buyout candidate, the complications the CBA presents for teams who may want to sign Brown, and why no matter what, the Raptors' return in exchange for Bruce Brown probably doesn't matter all that much for the future outlook of the franchise.

The Toronto Raptors fell big to the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday night in a game that made your brave host think all about the 2025 NBA Draft. In Episode 1789, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about Scottie Barnes' struggles against the Bucks in the team's 130-112 loss on Friday, make his first swing at a Top-5 prospect ranking ahead of a the 2025 NBA Draft, and run through some other stray notes from the Raptors' 32nd loss in 42 games. Off the top, Sean talks about Scottie Barnes' struggles from three-point range, why no Immanuel Quickley means more Scottie threes for better or (usually) worse, Barnes still finding ways to be effective even in a 4-of-16 outing, and why without IQ there really isn't much left to learn about this team. Next, Sean ranks his five favourite potential prospects for the Raptors atop the 2025 NBA Draft, with thoughts on Cooper Flagg, Dylan Harper, Ace Bailey, Asa Newell and Kasparas Jakucionus. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Kelly Olynyk!), The Bad (the matchup with the Bucks) and The Hmm (Bruce Brown's eventual fate) to close out the show.

Halfway through the Toronto Raptors season, the team sits 10-31 and near the bottom of the standings -- but that doesn't mean there haven't been bright spots to get excited about! In Episode 1788, Sean Woodley and Katie Heindl (Basketball Feeling, Locked On NBA Newsletter) connect for another round of Toxic Positivity Friday and run through the brightest spots of the first half of the Raptors' season. Recency bias is about as they highlight this past week of Raptors hoop, which as been genuinely one of the high points of the year, capped off by a win over the Boston Celtics on  Wednesday. They also chat about the feat that has been maintaining a connected locker room vibe even through so much losing. Next, they chat about the improvement of Scottie Barnes, who has certainly had his ups and downs, but has made serious strides on defense and in the mid-range that could portend great things to come. Plus, they get into Gradey Dick, whose recent struggles shouldn't cloud a fantastic second season for the Raptors' sharpshooter. Lastly, they sing the praises of the Raptors' rookie class, most notably Jamal Shead, and talk about the rise of Ochai Agbaji to close out the show.
