  • The Toronto Raptors have the talent to be a playoff team in the Eastern Conference next year. In Episode 1808, Sean Woodley rings in another Toxic Positivity Friday by laying out the case for why the Raptors can make the playoffs in their first full season with Brandon Ingram, what even a medium outcome in the draft lottery could do to increase the talent quotient of the team, and game out what the 15-man roster could look like going into next season. Next, Sean digs into the the things in the Raptors favour that could make them a potent regular season team, from having more insurance than they've had in recent years, to the internal growth their class of 2024 rookies should be able to achieve, the value of having legitimate depth, and the climbable state of the Eastern Conference hierarchy. Lastly, Sean imagines what this team's playoff viability might look like, and why more than the actual playoff results, the mere chance to test this team's mettle in a playoff setting is what will really matter.

  • The Toronto Raptors introduced Brandon Ingram as the newest member of the team on Wednesday night, and he said all the right things. In Episode 1807, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about the Ingram's first presser as a Raptor, the encouraging things both he and head coach Darko Rajaković said about his fit with the team, and the Raptors' 131-108 loss to the Cavaliers that followed. Sean gets into the reasons to believe in Ingram's ability to adapt to the Raptors' style of play, even if it still very much needs to be proven on the court. Plus, some thoughts on the Raptors falling to the Cavs, how Ingram will probably help them struggle less in that specific matchup, and The Good (RJ Barrett), The Bad (Tristan Thompson being lame) and The Hmm (Immanuel Quickley-Jonathan Mogbo pick and roll chemistry) to round out the show.

  • The Toronto Raptors extended Brandon Ingram, and then took down the Philadelphia 76ers 106-103 on Tuesday night as Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley turned in one of their better efforts as a duo in their time together as teammates. In Episode 1806, Sean Woodley goes solo to recap the Raptors' win over the very sad, very screwed Sixers, discuss the Brandon Ingram contract extension and why it's completely fine, more! Sean gets into Scottie Barnes' outstanding effort driven by his work moving towards the rim, IQ's pace-driving 23-4-5 night, and Gradey Dick finally coming through in the clutch. Next, Sean digs into the Ingram extension, why it's not a steal of a deal and why that doesn't really matter if the team is good, and the upshot of not committing to a 4 or 5 year deal with him after taking it all the way to free agency this summer. Plus, some thoughts on how the Raptors build is different, but it doesn't make it bad. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Jonathan Mogbo), The Bad (Joel Embiid's end of game gaffe) and The Hmmm (CHOMCHE!) to round out the show.

  • Does Brandon Ingram have the skillset to play as a two-guard in jumbo lineups, and could his arrival in Toronto signal the return of the Raptors' Vision 6'9 team build? In Episode 1805, Sean Woodley goes solo to answer a bunch of questions from you, the listeners! Off the top, Sean answers a question about Brandon Ingram's viability at the two guard spot in gigantic lineups, and whether the Raptors could return to something similar to their 6'9-focused team build of the Pascal Siakam / OG Anunoby era. Next, Sean talks about which of the projected Top-5 picks would fit best with the Raptors should Toronto pick in the first five slots in the 2025 NBA Draft. Lastly, Sean rattles through a trio of questions about Ja'Kobe Walter and Gradey Dick's potential to be a second-unit guiding sixth man, the team's chances of winning the NBA Cup next year, and what Sean would do if given the keys to the franchise this summer.

  • The Toronto Raptors lost a pair of games over the weekend to the Oklahoma City Thunder and Houston Rockets to fall to 16-37 on the season while Scottie Barnes continued his recent run of struggle. In Episode 1804, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob chat about the Raptors' 0-2 weekend, Scottie Barnes' continued efficiency struggles and whether they'd prefer to see him tightening up his game as the season winds down, or if this is the time for experimentation with winning not being the priority. Next, they chat about the efforts of Immanuel Quickley, Jonathan Mogbo and Ja'Kobe Walter over the weekend, before running through The Good (Chris Boucher, Barnes + Mogbo on defense), The Bad (Gradey Dick injured, Ochai Agbaji 3PT shooting) and The Hmm (Scottie's motivation, are the Raptors gonna be hella deep next year?) to round out the show.

  • Toronto Raptors GM Bobby Webster met with the media to discuss the Brandon Ingram trade with the New Orleans Pelicans along with the rest of the team's moves at the NBA Trade Deadline; what did his comments reveal about the reasoning behind the trade, and what will the impact of the trade be on the Raptors in the short, medium and long-term future? In Episode 1803, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Raptors in 7, Sportsnet) to talk about Webster's comments, and plot out what the trade means for the Raptors between now and the end of the season, their offseason ahead, the team's shape for next season, and what the longer term vision of this deal might be. Will RJ Barrett be around for the long haul, and is a move to being a super sixth man in his future? How will the shadow core this team has built factor into the long-term success? And what happens if the Raptors strike gold and jump into the upper reaches of the draft lottery? It's all very interesting!!!

  • The Toronto Raptors traded Davion Mitchell to the Miami Heat, held on to Chris Boucher and picked up James Wiseman essentially for free after trading for Brandon Ingram before the NBA Trade Deadline. In Episode 1802, Sean Woodley goes solo off the top to talk about the Raptors small deadline day moves, saying goodbye to Davion Mitchell, Chris Boucher being invincible and the little James Wiseman pickup made just before the buzzer. Next, Sean welcomes in Jake Madison of Locked On Pelicans to talk about the reasons to like the Ingram pickup for the Raptors, reasons for some pause, why Ingram's time in New Orleans came to an end the way it did, and what to make of his injury history within the Pelicans organization, which has a bit of a poor reputation for keeping players healthy. Lastly, Sean and Jake talk about whether Ingram has it in him to be adaptable and tailor his game to fit within the Raptors' system, why he was not in New Orleans, Ingram's reticence to take threes despite being good at them, and where Ingram fits into the Raptors' defensive structure.

  • The Toronto Raptors have acquired Brandon Ingram from the New Orleans Pelicans in exchange for Bruce Brown, Kelly Olynyk, the Pacers 2026 first-round pick and a 2031 second-round pick. In Episode 1801, Sean Woodley goes solo to spill his many thoughts on the trade, which certainly bring some upside if Ingram is able to adapt his game to fit around Scottie Barnes, and if he can stay healthy, but bring a lot of potential for things to go wrong and set back the Scottie Barnes era to a possibly irreparable degree. Off the top, Sean runs through the rationale of the trade, why the deal doesn't mean the Raptors are suddenly about to push for the play-in tournament, the closed loop on the Pascal Siakam trade and the reasons why the trade make sense -- if you believe in Ingram as a player... Next, Sean runs through the ways in which this works. If Ingram can adapt under new coaach Darko Rajakovic, there's a world in which the Raptors' collection of pretty good players turns into a team that's better than the sum of its parts; and some lottery luck in June would go a long way to making this whole thing more viable. Lastly, Sean outlines the ways in which this goes off the rails, from the money Ingram could potentially make, the injury history that makes him high-risk as a high-priced piece, and the potential for this to be a Rudy Gay / Jermaine O'Neal level mess if things don't break right. We'll see!!

  • The Toronto Raptors starters looked their best yet this weekend as the Raps split a pair of home games against the Chicago Bulls on Friday and the LA Clippers on Sunday. In Episode 1799, Sean Woodley goes solo to recap a loss to the Bulls on Friday that very much seemed by design, the starters' strong play over the course of the two games and why it's still so important for the team to get as much of a look at the Immanuel Quickley, Gradey Dick, RJ Barrett, Scottie Barnes, Jakob Poeltl grouping as possible just to see how much of a floor Barnes and Poeltl can give them on defense, and the mixed messaging the team sent out over the weekend regarding their larger scale intention. Plus, some thoughts on the Luka Doncic for Anthony Davis trade between the LA Lakers and Dallas Mavericks and what lies ahead for the Raptors before Thursday's NBA Trade Deadline.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • This episode of the Lockdown NBA Squad Show East features a panel of NBA podcast hosts discussing recent developments in the Eastern Conference. The conversation covers the Cleveland Cavaliers' defensive struggles, highlighting the impact of injuries to players like Caris LeVert, Isaac Okoro, and Evan Mobley. The Detroit Pistons' surprising success is attributed to Cade Cunningham's stellar play and improved team defense, particularly with Ausar Thompson in the lineup.

    The panel debates the Orlando Magic's offensive woes, noting their league-worst three-point shooting percentage and discussing potential trade options to improve their offense without sacrificing their defensive identity. Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner are mentioned as key players for the Magic's future.

    The hosts also explore the Philadelphia 76ers' situation, debating whether the team should continue competing or consider rebuilding, given Joel Embiid's injury history and the team's struggles this season.

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.

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.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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.
