Yahoo Sports senior NBA reporter Jake Fischer and Yahoo Sports senior NBA writer Dan Devine talk about the streaky Dallas Mavericks, a new foundational player for the Atlanta Hawks and check in on the Most Improved Player race.00:00 - Hello friends!02:20 - Donovan Mitchell returns vs. Pelicans04:15 - Magic give Mosley 4-year extension07:50 - Otto Porter Jr. retires11:10 - VIBE CHECK: Dallas Mavericks28:50 - Most Improved Player candidates32:55 - Tyrese Maxey36:00 - Coby White44:00 - Herb Jones44:25 - Jalen Suggs44:45 - Duncan Robinson48:00 - Donte DiVincenzo49:20 - Deni Avdija49:35 - Jalen Johnson & the Atlanta HawksOn this episode of No Cap Room, Yahoo Sports senior NBA reporter Jake Fischer and Yahoo Sports senior NBA writer Dan Devine kick things off by talking about the Cleveland Cavaliers, who got Donovan Mitchell back last night and proceeded to beat up on a good New Orleans Pelicans team. Are the Cavs quietly the 2nd best team in the East?The guys give a quick shoutout to Orlando Magic head coach Jamahl Mosley, who recently got a 4-year extension after turning this young roster into a fantastic defensive team. Dan argues that this is the most successful Magic season since Dwight Howard was on the roster, while Jake wonders if Mosley could win Coach of the Year this season.After another shoutout to Otto Porter Jr., who retired after 11 NBA seasons, Jake and Dan do a vibe check for the Dallas Mavericks. The Mavericks have been streaky lately, winning a bunch, and then losing a bunch, and now riding another 4-game winning streak. Dan explains that the key to their success is the defense, which might be turning a corner. Jake points out that Daniel Gafford and P.J. Washington seem to finally be finding their roles in this Dallas offense, which could end up helping the defense.With just a few more weeks left in the NBA regular season, the guys decided to check in on the Most Improved Player race, which is probably locked up for Tyrese Maxey. Dan admits to who he has voted for in the past, Jake roasts him for it while explaining his own philosophy for who should win MIP, and then they throw out some names of guys that could theoretically challenge Maxey for the away this year.One of those names is Jalen Johnson, who has made such a leap this season for the Atlanta Hawks that they might just trade away Trae Young and rebuild the team around Johnson. Jake talked with Johnson, and some of his struggles to escape pre-draft rumors, and came away very impressed by the kid's mentality and work ethic. Will we see him in the play-in game? And could his improvement lead to a shift in the Eastern Conference?Check out the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The team came out for the second night of a back-to-back without Jaylen Brown, Al Horford, and Kristaps Porzingis but that proved to be no problem. Jayson Tatum led the way with 38 points but it was an all-around team effort. The Celts improve to 51-14 and finally head back home.

In Episode 1571, Sean Woodley goes solo to break down the Toronto Raptors trade at the exact moment the Toronto Raptors acquired Kelly Olynyk and Ochai Agbaji from the Utah Jazz for Otto Porter Jr., Kira Lewis Jr. and one of the bad picks they got from Indiana in the Pascal Siakam trade -- of which there will be more coverage to come this afternoon at 4pm ET live on the YouTube Channel! Off the top, Sean digs into how awful the Raptors' defense was for most of the Hornets game, and why the Raptors most important players were the biggest culprits until some lock down work to close the game out. Next, Sean chats about the genuinely promising signs from Toronto on the offensive end, and the early returns on the Scottie Barnes-RJ Barrett-Immanuel Quickley-Jakob Poeltl quartet when they share the floor together. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Dennis Schroder's performance), The Bad (the Raptor's lack of defensive talent) and The Hmmmm (the end of the pre-deadline fog excuse for disjointed play) to round out the show.Join us over on the Locked On Raptors Discord for some deadline day hangs! https://discord.gg/yvpdCpMtSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!NissanOur friends at Nissan have a lineup of SUV's with the capabilities to take your adventure to the next level. Take the Nissan Rogue, Nissan Pathfinder, or Nissan Armada and go find your next big adventure. Shop NissanUSA.com.  LinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the qualified candidates you want to talk to, faster.

In Episode 1572, Sean Woodley goes solo for a live reaction episode to break down the Toronto Raptors' moves at the NBA Trade Deadline, as they acquired Kelly Olynyk and Ochai Agbaji from the Utah Jazz for Otto Porter Jr., Kira Lewis Jr. and the worst of their first-round picks in this 2024 draft, moved Dennis Schröder and Thad Young to the Nets for Spencer Dinwiddie in a cost-saving measure, and held on to Bruce Brown despite plenty of rumours that he'd be moved on Thursday. Off the top, Sean digs into the many reasons why the Olynyk/Agbaji trade was a nice bit of business for the Raptors, from the potential to retain Olynyk beyond the expiry of his current contract at season's end, to Agbaji being a better bet than a very late first round selection to become a rotation piece in the next couple years. Next, Sean details the strange Schröder trade, and why it's not as damaging as it could have been considering the addition of Olynyk and the retention of Brown to serve as their backup point guard. This one's all about saving money in the summer, so the full grade will have to wait. Lastly, Sean talks about the Raptors' decision to keep Bruce Brown, and why it's a perfectly fine choice considering the optionality having him on their books will give them this summer.Join us over on the Locked On Raptors Discord server! https://discord.gg/QhvFCwXVSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!NissanOur friends at Nissan have a lineup of SUV's with the capabilities to take your adventure to the next level. Take the Nissan Rogue, Nissan Pathfinder, or Nissan Armada and go find your next big adventure. Shop NissanUSA.com.  LinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the qualified candidates you want to talk to, faster.

In Episode 1570, Sean Woodley is joined by Katie Heindl (DIME, Basketball Feelings) to chat about Scottie Barnes being named an NBA All-Star injury replacement alongside Trae Young, the adjustment to rooting for a team that isn't winning basketball games, and their final predictions ahead of the NBA Trade Deadline. Off the top, Sean and Katie react to Barnes earning his first All-Star nod, their favourite elements of his All-Star leap season, and what they're looking for out of Scottie down the stretch of the season. Next, 50 games into the season, this feels like it's been a barren year as far as things to get excited about in Toronto. Has this been a lost season from the fan perspective? Sean and Katie discuss, while digging into the adjustment of expectations and motivations that has to happen when you go from rooting for a competitive team to a retooling one, and what excites them about what lies ahead over the final 32 games once the Trade Deadline dust settles. Plus, what are their predictions ahead of the deadline? Will Bruce Brown get moved? What about Chris Boucher, Dennis Schroder, Otto Porter Jr. and Gary Trent Jr.? One way or another, the deadline can't come soon enough!Join is over on the Locked On Raptors Discord server! https://discord.gg/Z8CGFTE4Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!NissanOur friends at Nissan have a lineup of SUV's with the capabilities to take your adventure to the next level. Take the Nissan Rogue, Nissan Pathfinder, or Nissan Armada and go find your next big adventure. Shop NissanUSA.com.  LinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the qualified candidates you want to talk to, faster.

In Episode 1570, Sean Woodley is joined by Katie Heindl (DIME, Basketball Feelings) to chat about Scottie Barnes being named an NBA All-Star injury replacement alongside Trae Young, the adjustment to rooting for a team that isn't winning basketball games, and their final predictions ahead of the NBA Trade Deadline. Off the top, Sean and Katie react to Barnes earning his first All-Star nod, their favourite elements of his All-Star leap season, and what they're looking for out of Scottie down the stretch of the season. Next, 50 games into the season, this feels like it's been a barren year as far as things to get excited about in Toronto. Has this been a lost season from the fan perspective? Sean and Katie discuss, while digging into the adjustment of expectations and motivations that has to happen when you go from rooting for a competitive team to a retooling one, and what excites them about what lies ahead over the final 32 games once the Trade Deadline dust settles. Plus, what are their predictions ahead of the deadline? Will Bruce Brown get moved? What about Chris Boucher, Dennis Schroder, Otto Porter Jr. and Gary Trent Jr.? One way or another, the deadline can't come soon enough! Join is over on the Locked On Raptors Discord server! https://discord.gg/Z8CGFTE4 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

In Episode 1541, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob to react to the Toronto Raptors' 121-111 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night in a game that saw the Raptors show some positive signs of life only to fall short to Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris, all of whom scored 30+ points in the game. Off the top, Sean and Vivek discuss the encouraging changes to the rotation Darko Rajakovic deployed in the game, as well the defensive work by Jakob Poeltl and Dennis Schroder, who had their best game working in tandem to guard pick-and-roll since the very early days of the season. Next, Sean and Vivek discuss O.G. Anunoby's prolonged shooting slump and small step back on the defensive end this season and why it's looking more and more like moving O.G. and not Pascal Siakam before the NBA Trade Deadline is the best pathway for the Raptors to retain talent around Scottie Barnes while reorienting the roster around him in a way that can be conducive to success. Lastly, they run through The Good (Pascal Siakam moving into the Top-5 for assists in franchise history), The Bad (Malachi Flynn, Precious Achiuwa) and The Hmmmm (Darko getting quicker with the hook for underperforming bench players, Otto Porter Jr.'s return to the rotation hopefully for not one night only) to round out the show.

In Episode 1530, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic) to chat about a frustrating Toronto Raptors loss to the Miami Heat on Wednesday night that featured huge nights from Pascal Siakam, O.G. Anunoby and Gary Trent Jr. along with a big time fourth quarter by Scottie Barnes, but was spoiled by some baffling Dennis Schröder possessions and a slow-to-react Darko Rajakovic. Off the top, Sean and Jamar dig into why Schröder's fingerprints were all over the Raptors' issues in the final minutes, as his commandeering of the offense, brutal misses and really rough defense resulted in the Heat pulling away comfortably in the waning moments of the game. Next, they dig into the prolonged issues for the Raptors' starting lineup, which hasn't really done much good since the opening week of the NBA season. Is NOW the time for the change after hitting rock bottom? Sean and Jamar dig into why they'd move to start Gary Trent Jr. in place of Schröder, and the cascading positive effects that could have on the team as a whole. Lastly, they run through the Good (Pascal Siakam, Otto Porter Jr. back in the rotation), the Bad (a really bad Dennis possession, the start of the 3rd quarter, and Darko's dinner promise) and the Hmmm (Gradey Dick's play for hte 905, a really fun lineup combo) to round out the show.Join us on the Discord!

In Episode 1510, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic) to break down the Toronto Raptors' 127-116 win over the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night in Pascal Siakam, Scottie Barnes and O.G. Anunoby were all extremely studly. Off the top, they dig into how the Raptors' leading trio complimented one another the way to bothering Luka Doncic on the defensive end, while marauding their way to the rim all night long against a Mavs team without its best rim protector in the lineup. Score this one as a data point in favour of the Raptors' big three's long-term viability. Next, they dig into a strong showing from the Raptors bench, including notes on Malachi Flynn, Gary Trent Jr., Chris Boucher and Otto Porter Jr., all of whom contributed to the victory. Lastly, Sean and Jamar run through the Good, the Bad & the Hmmmm, with an emphasis on the Good and the Hmmm because outside of Ben Taylor being a walking ref show, there wasn't much to complain about from this game!Join our Discord server!

In Episode 1508, Sean Woodley goes solo to discuss the state of the Toronto Raptors' bench through the first seven games of the 2023-24 NBA season, and discuss whether there should be some optimism about the team's struggling reserves turning the tide. Off the top, Sean details why he's general encouraged by Darko Rajakovic's usage of his bench players, even though the team ranks 27th in the league in nightly bench scoring and 28th in bench three-point shooting percentage. The nice thing is that the the Raptors' head coach is deplying groups in a way that doesn' ask too much from his bench pieces. Will some positive regression to the mean from deep start seeing some of the team's core transitional lineups take off? And what can be made of the Dennis Schroder-Pascal Siakam-Jakob Poeltl and Scottie Barnes-O.G. Anunoby duo that seemingly comprise the backbone of most of the team's reserve-heavy looks? Next, Sean runs through his tiers of trust when it comes to the Raptors' bench players. Otto Porter Jr. is as advertised when healthy, Gary Trent Jr. is seemingly getting more comfortable, and Malachi Flynn has been surprisingly steady if underwhelming. What about Precious Achiuwa and Chris Boucher? And can Gradey Dick and Jalen McDaniels hang on to their rotation spots by finding their stroke from three? Lastly, Sean tackles a listener question about whether or not the Raptors should look at changing up the starting lineup to help balance out their starting and reserve units to close out the show.Join our Discord server for free to become part of our growing Locked On Raptors listener community! https://discord.gg/Dn7rc9c4Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!eBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.

In Episode 1474, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob (Raptors.com) kick off the show's return to daily episodes with a temperature check on the ongoing uncertainty surrounding Pascal Siakam's future with the Toronto Raptors, and discuss what Bogdan Bogdanovic becoming trade eligible over the weekend might mean for any potential trade talks between the Raptors and the Atlanta Hawks. Off the top, Sean and Vivek dig into the current situation around Siakam, whether they think the Raptors need to accept a trade of Siakam -- even if they lose it on a talent basis -- in the interest of declaring a direction for the franchise and kickstarting the Scottie Barnes era. Next, Sean pitches Vivek on a deal that would send Siakam and Otto Porter Jr. to Atlanta in exchange for Bogdanovic, De'Andre Hunter, AJ Griffin and a 2024 Kings first round pick (Top-14 protected). Is that deal enough for the Raptors to move on from their best player? How would Bogdanovic fit alongside Scottie Barnes? And are the Raptors right to push for Kobe Bufkin's inclusion? Lastly, they examine the state of the team if in fact Siakam does not get moved between now and the start of the season, and how the O.G. Anunoby extension situation could play into it all. We're back to a daily schedule, and isn't it great that we're still talking about the same thing we were two months ago?Be sure to join the conversation in our ever-growing Discord community! https://discord.gg/bG9ERhrkSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Jase MedicalSave more than $360 by getting these lifesaving antibiotics with Jase Medical plus an additional $20 off by using code LOCKEDON at checkout on jasemedical.com.BirddogsGo to birddogs.com/LOCKEDONNBA or enter promo code LOCKEDONNBA for a free water bottle with any purchase.

In Episode 1472, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Raptors.com) to discuss the Toronto Raptors' starting lineup options going into the 2023-24 season. Off the top, they discuss both of their preferred starting lineup choice: Scottie Barnes, Gary Trent Jr., O.G. Anunoby, Pascal Siakam and Jakob Poeltl, and why prioritizing Scottie Barnes' development, to them, needs to be the leading factor in which ever decision head coach Darko Rajakovic makes. Next, they examine the possibility of swapping Trent Jr. out for new signing and FIBA World Cup MVP Dennis Schröder, and discuss some of the pros (extra ball-handling, defense) and cons (a dire lack of shooting and spacing) of what a Barnes-Schröder-Anunoby-Siakam-Poeltl lineup might be. Lastly, Sean and Vivek discuss some deeper bench candidates to potentially carve out a starting role on the team this season. Could Jalen McDaniels get on a three-point heater and work himself into the starting lineup plans? What about Otto Porter Jr.?

An adorable Wednesday crossword by Caryn Robbins and Matthew Stock, the latter a familiar name among NYTimes crossword aficionados, the former less so -- this being her second (congrats!). The theme was fun, and there were many educational clues in the grid. For example, did you know that both CHAD and LESOTHO are land-locked? That Jean ARP is a Dada artist? and that OTTO Porter Jr. is an NBA forward? Well, if you didn't before, you know now! Lastly, today's WYMA is ELO**if  WYMA (Words You'll Meet Again) is unfamiliar to you, that's unsurprising, as what we hope will be a continuing segment  just sprung into existence during yesterday's podcast, be sure and check it out if you want the deets.Contact Info:We love listener mail!

In Episode 1451, Sean Woodley goes solo to discuss the Toronto Raptors very imbalanced roster, and the sneaking feeling that Vision 6'9, once thought to be dead as a team-building philosophy for the Raptors, is in fact very alive and well. Is that a good thing, though? Off the top, Sean digs into why the concept of building a whole roster out of 6'9 guys is actually pretty sound, except for the fact that players with the requisite skills to make offense run smoothly who are also 6'9 are extremely hard to find, even before you factor in the many elements of team building that are out of a front office's control. And yet, here the Raptors are, once again loaded with 10 guys in the 6'7 through 7'0 range and not many guards in support. Next, Sean looks at the logjam at the forward position for the Raptors, hypothesizes on which guys might be in or out of the rotation, and discuss why there are certainly going to be some fun and interesting things about watching this year's Raptors, even if they don't end up being good. Lastly, Sean answers some listener questions about where Chris Boucher fits into the picture, whether Jalen McDaniels should be prioritized ahead of someone like Otto Porter Jr., and some interesting, all-6'9 lineup combos the Raptors might be able to run out.Come hang out with our growing listener community in the Locked On Raptors Discord! https://discord.gg/rnXsb2eVSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicksFirst time users can receive a 100% instant deposit match up to $100 with promo code LOCKEDON.

In Episode 1424, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic) to revisit their conversation from a month ago about the Toronto Raptors deep bench players and discuss whether or not their feelings on those players have changed with the hiring of Darko Rajaković. Off the top, they discuss whether or not they're looking at each of the Raptors younger deep bench players with a clean slate now that Rajaković will be bringing his player development prowess to Toronto. Next, they discuss whether or not Malachi Flynn's career stands a chance of being saved by a pick-and-roll friendly head coach and a little more opportunity in the final season of his rookie scale contract. Lastly, Sean and Jamar dig into their excitement for Christian Koloko, whether or not Dalano Banton stands a chance of carving out a niche under the new coach, and why Otto Porter Jr. is being slept on as a contributor on next years' Raptors.Now is the time to join the Locked On Raptors Discord community ahead of next week's NBA Draft!

In Episode 1402, it's a tradition like no other, as Sean Woodley welcomes in Vivek Jacob and Sahal Abdi to review the final results in their Sixth Annual Toronto Raptors Over/Unders & Props Competition. This was a strange Raptors season that features many ups and down on the road to a 41-41 finish and a play-in exit. How did the arrival of Jakob Poeltl in the second half affect the team's results? How did injury and role changes affect our preseason predictions for Fred VanVleet, Precious Achiuwa, Gary Trent Jr., Otto Porter Jr. and more? Will Sean finally get his first ever championship after betting heavily on an O.G. Anunoby breakout? Will Vivek pick up his fifth title in the last six years? Can Sahal add to his collection of titles which currently sits at just one? We get into all of it an crown a winner and put one final bow on the 2022-23 Toronto Raptors season.

Jason Timpf reacts to Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors' 96-87 preseason victory over Bradley Beal and the Washington Wizards. Jason shares his thoughts on the Warriors' poor shooting, elite defense, and how players like Moses Moody, Jonathan Kuminga, and James Wiseman will step up this season with Gary Payton II and Otto Porter Jr. gone. Plus, Jason breaks down the Golden State Warriors ahead of the 2022-2023 NBA season. Has another playoff run taken its toll on this aging Warriors core of Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson? How will the Warriors integrate Jonathan Kuminga and James Wiseman into their rotation? What do the Warriors need to do to repeat as NBA champions? #Volume #herd #colincowherdSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
