Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors

This week on Open Gym, Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan sat down to reflect on their storied run with the Toronto Raptors during the 2010s, and we've got feelings as a result! In Episode 1798, Sean Woodley is joined by Katie Heindl (Locked On NBA Newsletters) to talk about the new episode of Open Gym covering Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan's time with the Raptors and their incredible friendship. We weren't emotional about it at all. They chat about their favourite nuggets from the episode as Lowry and DeRozan outline the arc of their friendship and how it helped turn the Raptors' fortunes around after the Rudy Gay trade, why we'll probably never see something like their bond again, and the importance of winning basketball games to the growth of team chemistry -- which is kind of timely right about now within the context of the present day Raptors.Discord: https://discord.gg/WKeT2dE9Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors beat up the Washington Wizards -- who stink!!! -- on Wednesday night for their fifth-straight win, and seventh in their last eight games. In Episode 1797, Sean Woodley goes solo talk about how happy he is that the Raptors are not in the Wizards when it comes to being utterly tanktastic, the few actual takeaways to be pulled from a laugher of a game, the latest on the play-in and lottery standings watch and more. To wrap, Sean runs through The Good (Scottie Barnes delay dunks), The Bad (Jordan Poole) and The Hmmm (Andrew Wiggins to the Raptors?) to round out the show. Discord: https://discord.gg/WKeT2dE9Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors have the best defense in the NBA over the last 7 games, led by Scottie Barnes' All-Defense level play -- but can it sustain? In Episode 1796, Sean Woodley is joined by Es Baraheni (The Athletic NBA Daily) to talk about the Raptors' newfound defensive structure, the impact of Davion Mitchell, Jakob Poeltl and Scottie Barnes and how sustainable this run might be, especially once Immanuel Quickley eventually supplants Mitchell in the starting five. Can Barnes and Poeltl do enough to keep the defense stout when that happens? Next, they chat about Scottie Barnes' leap on defense, his case to make an All-Defense team, the ideal scheme for his talents and the skillsets that could make sense next to him on the defensive end as the team looks to add more talent. Lastly, they chat about the Marc Stein reporting loosely tying the Raptors to Pelicans wing Brandon Ingram, why it doesn't really pass the smell test, and their hopes and dreams ahead of next week's trade deadline. Discord: https://discord.gg/WKeT2dE9Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors picked up their sixth win in seven games with a 113-104 win over the New Orleans Pelicans, as they continue to be absolutely monstrous on the defensive end. In Episode 1795, Sean Woodley goes solo to recap the Raptors' win, talk about what's been going into the Raptors' having the league's best defense over the last seven games, the offensive struggles the team is going through as the defense has reached new heights, and more from the Raptors' 14th win of the year. Off the top, Sean talks about Scottie Barnes playing at an All-Defense level, Jakob Poeltl providing a backbone, and Davion Mitchell's impact at the point of attack. Next, Sean gets into the Raptors' struggles scoring both against the Pelicans and over this seven-game stretch, where despite being number one on defense, they're just 21st in offensive efficiency. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Barnes' in-game adaptability), The Bad (Three-point shooting) and The Hmmm (just keep Bruce?) to round out the show. Discord: https://discord.gg/WKeT2dE9Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors picked up their fifth win in their last six games and second-straight on the road against the Atlanta Hawks on Satuday, as Scottie Barnes continued to play the best all-around ball of his life. In Episode 1794, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Raptors in 7, Sportsnet) to talk about the Raptors picking up another win on the back of their suddenly air-tight defense, Scottie Barnes making a leap, whether they'd rather see the Raptors' go on a late-season scorcher of a run or continue on the road to a high pick, and much more! Off the top, they dig into Barnes' 24-12-7-2-2 outing on Saturday and the immense defensive impact he's bringing to the table right now, and how it's filtering down through the team. Next, Sean poses a Would You Rather scenario: would you prefer a 31-10 second half that sees the Raptors finish 41-41, or a 22-60 finish that follows the script most people expect is about to play out once the team trades its connective veterans. Lastly, they run through The Good (Chris Boucher, Ja'Kobe Walter), The Bad (Gradey Dick) and The Hmm (are the Raptors actually successfully showcasing their vets?!) to round out the show! Discord: https://discord.gg/Vybv9W3CLocked On Raptors Newsletter:  https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors took down the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday night in a close 122-119 tilt that saw Scottie Barnes continue a run of stellar, winning basketball while his supporting cast of sage veterans helped out big time; but are the Raptors, now winners of four of their last five, winning too much? In Episode 1793, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about the Raptors taking the first of two games down in Atlanta this week, dig into Scottie Barnes' immense two-way impact, and the work Bruce Brown, Kelly Olynyk and the rest of the potentially soon-to-be traded veterans have done this month to help him hone his craft as a leading man. He also gets in to the idea that the 12-32 Raptors are somehow winning too much, and why this spell of good play is nothing to be worried about for a Raptors team that still needs to see progression from its important young guys and is going to surely engineer plenty of losses down the stretch by giving rookies a boat load of run. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Gradey Dick's two-way play), The Bad (Ja'Kobe Walter looking green) and The Hmmm (should the Raptors switch more on defense?) to round out the show. Discord: https://discord.gg/Vybv9W3CLocked On Raptors Newsletter:  https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

Can the Toronto Raptors help grease the wheels of what is sure to be a very complex, multi-team trade that sends Jimmy Butler from the Miami Heat to the Phoenix Suns? In Episode 1792, Sean Woodley is joined by Wes Goldberg (Locked On Heat) and Brendon Kleen (Locked On Suns) to talk about the Toronto Raptors potential involvement in the long-rumored Jimmy Butler trade to the Phoenix Suns which may or may not go down between now and the Feb. 6th Trade Deadline. They get into the mindset and motivations of each team at the moment, possible constructions of trades that could work for each of the Suns, Heat and Raptors, whether a fourth our fifth team might get involved, and all the complex hurdles that need to be cleared for a deal of this magnitude to go down within the league's restrictive CBA. Discord! https://discord.gg/Vybv9W3CJoin the Locked On Raptors Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

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. Discord: https://discord.gg/Vybv9W3CNewsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

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. Join the Discord! https://discord.gg/Vybv9W3CSubscribe to the Locked On Raptors Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

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. Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/hpVCdFeeNewsletter Subscription Link: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

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. Join the show Discord: https://discord.gg/hpVCdFeeLocked On Raptors Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors took down the defending champion Boston Celtics 110-97 on Wednesday to secure their second-straight win and their best win of the entire season to close out the first half of their schedule. In Episode 1787, Sean Woodley goes solo to break down the win over Boston, talk about Scottie Barnes' killer two-way performance, and shout out Jakob Poeltl and the team's defense for their roles in the win. Next, Sean gets into RJ Barrett and Gradey Dick returning to form with big games of their own and why some similar performances in the coming weeks will go a long way toward cementing their place within the team long term. Lastly, Sean digs into The Good (Davion Mitchell), The Bad (Bruce Brown) and The Hmm (10 wins from the first half of the season and what to expect in back half of the schedule) to round out the show. Discord: https://discord.gg/hpVCdFeeNewsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors are terrible in clutch situations! Why is that? And is it something the Raptors' have the capacity to fix in house? In Episode 1786, Sean Woodley goes solo to field a bunch of mailbag questions from you, the listeners! Topics covered include what makes Chris Boucher so fun and his future with the franchise, the Raptors' struggles in clutch time and whether any fixes for their issues exist on the roster as constructed, Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey's theoretical fits with the Raptors if they end up in Toronto on draft night, whether the team will finally rebrand back to purple full-time next year, and the future of Masai Ujiri and Bobby Webster. Discord: https://discord.gg/hpVCdFeeNewsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

You cannot stop Chris Boucher, you can only hope to contain him -- which the Golden State Warriors very much failed to do as the Toronto Raptors took down Steph Curry's squad 104-101 on Monday day thanks to a 17-point, 7-of-9 fourth quarter effort from the longest serving Raptors player. In Episode 1785, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob to recap the Toronto Raptors' 104-101 win over the Golden State Warriors, bask in the glow of Chris Boucher's white hot week -- maybe the best of his Raptors career to date -- and talk about the other stuff that worked well for the Raptors as they picked up just their ninth victory of the season. Off the top, Sean ad Vivek chat about Boucher's 17-point fourth quarter, his 25/33 run of shooting over his last four games, why the things that make the least sense are the most fun, and whether there's anything Boucher's doing differently of late to facilitate this heater. Next, Sean and Vivek chat about solid outings by Scottie Barnes and Ochai Agbaji, and Vivek does a victory lap for his long-standing Ochai belief. Lastly, they run through The Good (Jamal Shead), The Bad (Nothing!) and The Hmmm (RJ Barrett-less minutes, Chris Boucher's trade value) to wrap up the show. Join the Discord! https://discord.gg/hpVCdFeeFREE Newsletter Subscription link: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors fell 123-114 to the Detroit Pistons in a very competitive and entertaining game on Saturday, but concerns about the team's starting five of Immanuel Quickley, Gradey Dick, RJ Barrett, Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl are growing after another rough outing. In Episode 1784, Sean Woodley goes solo to dissect what was a pretty bizarre game that featured plenty to  like and dislike from the Raptors end of the things, what happens if the starting lineup is no good, the need for information and Chris Boucher with another ridiculous heater. Off the top, Sean gets into the good and bad of this game, from Immanuel Quickley launching threes and getting to the line while playing an overall pretty imbalanced game, RJ Barrett's two-way struggles,  and the bench giving the team life. Next, Sean digs into the starters' early struggles in their first week together, the -19.7 NET Rating they've posted so far, what happens if the starters are terrible over a longer sample, and why information is the single most valuable thing for the franchise right now as it plots its course forward. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Chris Boucher's first quarter), The Bad (RJ Barrett's worst game as a Raptor?) and The Hmmm (Ochai Agbaji, closer?) to round out the show. Discord: https://discord.gg/x3gwEszpNewsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors looked like the Fun Bad team we grew to love in the first month of the season with a hard-fought 132-126 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday night. In Episode 1783, Sean Woodley goes solo to break down the loss to Cleveland, detail what set this loss apart from most of the Raptors' recent Ls, check in on how the starting lineup fared in their third game together, and sing the praises of Chris Boucher and Jamal Shead's efforts off the bench. It wasn't a perfect performance by the Raptors, especially on the the defensive end, but this one featured all kinds of things to get stoked on -- including Scottie Barnes going toe-to-toe with Evan Mobley, and a much sharper offensive attack than we've seen in recent games. That's a loss you can live with. Join us on the Discord: https://discord.gg/x3gwEszpLocked On Raptors Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors fell to the New York Knicks 112-98 on Wendesday night to fall to 8-29, but their starting lineup of Immanuel Quickley, Gradey Dick, RJ Barrett, Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl showed some signs of genuine promise, particularly in a defensively stout first half. In Episode 1782, Sean Woodley runs through his takeaways from yet another loss, why the starters were truly encouraging despite the game's final result, the struggles of the second unit and more. Off the top he chats about the Raptors winning the minutes with their starters on the floor, and what looked different about the defense through three quarters. Next, Sean examines the profound struggles of the second unit, including Jamal Shead's -21 in 16 minutes, Ja'Kobe Walters' 0-for-5 night, and the painful play of bench vets Kelly Olynyk and Bruce Brown. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Immanuel Quickley), The Bad (Ochai Agbaji getting hurt) and The Hmm (the quest for sensible transitional lineups) to round out the show. Join us on the Locked On Raptors Discord! https://discord.gg/x3gwEszpSubscribe to the Locked On Raptors Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

The Toronto Raptors visit the New York Knicks on Wednesday night looking to bounce back from an embarrassing loss to the Bucks on Monday, and Gavin Schall from Locked On Knicks is along for a preview of the game and a check-in on RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and OG Anunoby a year and a week after the Raptors franchise-shifting trade with New York. In Episode 1781, Sean Woodley and Gavin Schall talk about RJ Barrett, still an enigma, and whether his defense has any hope of getting back to the heights it reached in Barrett's second season with the Knicks, Immanuel Quickley's progression as a playmaker, OG Anunoby's recent slump and whether there's anything for Knicks fans to be concerned about with his performance, and whether the struggling Raptors can take advantage of the Knicks' porous rim protection and pick up an upset victory against a New York team that may be without Karl-Anthony Towns, and that has dropped three games in a row. Join us on the Locked On Raptors Discord server! https://discord.gg/x3gwEszpSubscribe FOR FREE to the Locked On Raptors Newsletter: https://newsletters.lockedonpodcasts.com/nba/raptorsYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!
