Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors

In Episode 1567, Sean Woodley and Katie Heindl chat about a handful of Toronto Raptors related topics, including the retirement of championship team member and fan favourite Marc Gasol, Immanuel Quickley and Jakob Poeltl inching towards their returns, and Scottie Barnes not making the Eastern Conference All-Star team as a reserve. Off the top, Sean and Katie chat about Gasol, what he meant to the Raptors during his brief time in Toronto, and what made him such an admirable NBA star. Next, Sean and Katie chat about the approaching returns of Quickley and Poeltl after both practiced in full yesterday, and the downstream effects their returns should bring to the team as it continues to look for its new shape after a month of upheaval. Lastly, Sean and Katie chat about whether Scottie Barnes was fairly left off the East's All-Star roster, or whether there were guys who made the team who Scottie was more deserving than. All that, plus a brief aside on Bruce Brown and whether he's soon to be traded.

In Episode 1566, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic) to break down the Toronto Raptors' gritty, fun, 118-107 win over DeMar DeRozan and the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday night. Off the top, Sean and Jamar rattle through some of the most fun elements of the Raptors' losing skid-snapping loss, including another scoring outburst from Jordan Nwora, and some heady play by the Raptors' bench guard duo of Bruce Brown and Dennis Schroder, thrust into starting duty by the Raptors' injury situation, as well as the promise of good vibes and solid play that should only be amplified by the returns of Jakob Poeltl, Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett. Next, Sean and Jamar chat about Gary Trent Jr.'s excellent 24-point night to cap a red-hot month of January, and whether they'd prefer to see the Toronto Raptors keep GTJ through the trade deadline, or use his recent surge to sell high on him at the NBA Trade Deadline. Lastly, Sean and Jamar run through the Good (Thad Young, the Raptors' shot profile), the Bad (Dennis Schroder's turnovers, the results that SHOULD have come from running out a Nwora-Young-Temple-Dick-McDaniels lineup that ended up being a +6!) and The Hmmm (an impassioned debate on the race for the last two Eastern conference play-in spots and whether it's good or bad) to round out the show.

In Episode 1565, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Sportsnet) to play a round of everyone's favourite Toronto Raptors parlour game: What's More Likely?! Off the top, they chat about whether it's more likely that Jakob Poeltl's return to the lineup kickstarts a 9-1 run in the next 10 games, or fails to change the Raptors' losing ways since he went out with an ankle injury. Next, they discuss Bruce Brown and Gary Trent Jr.s' fate ahead of the NBA Trade Deadline and whether it's more likely that both or neither get traded before February 8th. Lastly, they look into the crystal balls to predict whether it's more like that Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett will all make an All-Star game in the next four year, or just one or fewer gets a nod in that time span.

In Episode 1564, Sean Woodley goes solo to entertain some Toronto Raptors questions from you, the listeners, about Immanuel Quickley, the length of the Raptors' rebuild/retool, and much more. Off the top, Sean digs into a question about Immanuel Quickley's pending RFA status and whether there is a number that the Raptors would walk away from should some team come out of the woodwork with a massive offer sheet this summer. The number would have to be very high, one would think, not the mention how unrealistic it is that the someone might come with a godfather offer so rich it would make the Raptors balk. Fear not the RFA boogeyman! Next, Sean discusses when the Raptors might power out of their ongoing retool and into a competitive window, and makes the argument for why 2025-26 feels like the season where things might really start clicking -- but could it happen as soon as next season? Plus, which former Raptors role players would fit in well on this team? Could RJ Barrett end up being a better player than IQ? Would it be better for the Raptors to be an all-offense, no defense team, or to have a little more balance? And more!

In Episode 1563, Sean Woodley is joined by Katie Heindl (Basketball Feelings, DIME) for a little check up on their feelings in the wake of a few weeks of massive change for the Toronto Raptors, with O.G. Anunoby and Pascal Siakam both being traded away, and the final ties to the title era Raptors gone from the team. Off the top, Sean and Katie chat about how they're feeling about the Siakam trade with a week of distance to think about it, and why the departure of the franchise icon is such a pivotal moment not just for Sean and Katie, but surely for wide swaths of the Raptors fan base as well. Next, they dig into the new era the team has moved into, the process of reestablishing and emotional attachment to a new version of the squad, and the process of picking out new Favourite Guys. Lastly, they chat about Bruce Brown's future, and get sad about Kyle Lowry getting send to basketball hell in Charlotte.

In Episode 1562, Sean Woodley goes solo to break down the Toronto Raptors' 108-100 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies in which they were completely overmatched size and athleticism-wise. Off the top, Sean digs into why the Raptors, all of a sudden a very small team by modern NBA standards, did not have the beef to hang with a Grizzlies team that, while down Ja Morant, Desmond Bane and Marcus Smart, was certainly not lacking for physicality and size in Monday night's matchups. Sean digs into how Jakob Poeltl would have helped in that regard some, but why the team needs to be scouring the pro and amateur ranks for any largie, bouncy wings and centers they can possibly find. Next, Sean highlights the performances of Scottie Barnes (22-12-8 with 6 blocks) and RJ Barrett (29 points on 12/18), who very much brought the beef and met the Grizzlies' where they were head on. Plus, some thoughts on why the high talent of Barnes, Barrett and Immanuel Quickley should start translating into more wins for this group once Jakob Poeltl returns and the trade deadline dust settles. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Thad Young), The Bad (Immanuel Quickley's three-point volume) and The Hmmm (how perfectly O.G. Anunoby would fit on this team right now) to round out the show.

In Episode 1561, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Sportsnet) to chat about the Toronto Raptors 126-100 loss to the New York Knicks in Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett's returns to MSG. Off the top, Sean and Vivek chat about why the absence of Jakob Poeltl is really being felt, as the team is now 1-6 without their starting center. Would he have been the difference between winning and losing on Saturday? Probably not. But it is clear that for the Raptors to create an environment conducive to the development of their most important young players, Poeltl's roll gravity, rim protection, screening and passing are absolutely essential. Next, Sean and Vivek chat about the uncertainty hanging over Bruce Brown, who clearly fits the Raptors, but is reportedly going to be sought after by a lot of contending teams before the Feb. 8th NBA Trade Deadline, including the Knicks, who Brown had some interesting comments about after Saturday's game. Plus, will Gary Trent Jr. get moved? And will the deadline finally offer a lasting image of clarity for the team moving forward? Lastly, Sean and Vivek run through The Good (Gradey Dick with another strong showing), The Bad (RJ Barrett's assist totals getting nuked by poor finishing, Dennis Schroder) and The Hmmmm (Immanuel Quickley's playmaking, Quentin Grimes as a potential returning piece in a Bruce Brown deal) to round out the show.

In Episode 1560, Sean Woodley opens up with some quick thoughts on the Toronto Raptors' 116-110 loss to the Chicago Bulls on Thursday night in a game that saw Scottie Barnes flash superstar promise with some to-be-expected mistakes as he gets accustomed to live as a true. no. 1, as well as a pretty fun debut for the newly acquire Bruce Brown, before welcoming in Tony East of Locked On Pacers for some talk about the Pascal Siakam trade. Off the top, Sean gives a quick Good (Bruce Brown's tidy 15-7-1 debut), Bad (Scottie Barnes' turnover troubles in another outstanding 31-7-6 outing) and Hmmm (reasons why the Raptors should just hang on to Bruce Brown). Then, Sean and Tony talk about Siakam's incredible offensive fit with the Pacers and where he'll figure into their defense before running through some thoughts on the price the Pacers paid to get the deal done, Bruce Brown's additive skills, and whether Jordan Nwora has a shot at carving out a rotation spot with the Raptors.

In Episode 1559, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic) to chat about the Toronto Raptors' 121-97 win over the Miami Heat on Wednesday night just hours after Pascal Siakam was dealt to the Indiana Pacers. Off the top, Sean and Jamar chat about the early returns on Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett as the new vanguard of the new era of Raptors basketball. Next, they chat about Gary Trent Jr. lighting up as a member of the starting lineup, the where Bruce Brown fits and if he's going to stick around at all, the play of Gradey Dick in his return to rotation duty, and Christian Koloko getting waived to make room on the roster to complete the trade. Next, Sean and Jamar run through a Good, Bad & Hmm related entirely to Pascal Siakam's time in Toronto, and the deal to the Indiana Pacers.

In Episode 1558, Sean Woodley goes live to react to the Toronto Raptors trading franchise icon and 2-time All-NBA player Pascal Siakam to the Indiana Pacers for Bruce Brown, Jordan Nwora and three first round picks, while also adding former Pelicans first-rounder Kira Lewis Jr. in the move. Sean digs into why the Raptors have seemingly come up well short of receiving Siakam's true value in return, the series of decisions that led the Raptors here, the fit of Brown, Nwora and Lewis, what this means going forward as the Scottie Barnes era has now truly begun, and what Siakam has meant to the Raptors over his nearly 8 seasons in Toronto
