In Episode 1573, Sean Woodley is joined by Zulfi Sheikh (Sportsnet, Raptors Republic) to take a 10,000 foot view of all the moves the Toronto Raptors have made over the course of the last six weeks to try and determine whether they're better set up moving forward than they were when the season began. Off the top, Sean and Zulfi get into the overall takeaways from a trade season that was full of large-scale change both in the complexion of the roster, and the overall direction of the franchise. Is the direction now clear? And are the Raptors in a better spot now than they were before they kicked off the transaction period by trading O.G. Anunoby and Pascal Siakam? Next, Sean and Zulfi chat about the Raptors' targeting Canadian-born players and whether that might become a core principle of their talent accrual strategy going forward, the benefits of trying to identify Canadian players who can help the team, and the limits of that strategy as it relates to landing the very top end players from north of the border. Lastly, with the dust settled and the roster finally taking shape, Sean and Zulfi run through some five-man lineup combos they're excited to see the Raptors deploy down the stretch. Should Kelly Olynyk start? Will Gradey Dick get some run with the Raptors' core players? Where will Bruce Brown and Scottie Barnes figure into the backup point guard equation? And where does Ochai Agbaji fit in?

Will Lou and Blake Murphy look back at the Raptors loss to the Jazz and discuss the team's defensive rating since the Knicks trade. Raptors Republic's Louis Zatzman shares his thoughts on the team's recent play and Scottie Barnes' chances at becoming an all-star (34:30). With the Boston Celtics in town, the guys call up The Athletic's Jared Weiss with the latest on the Celtics, notably Ime Udoka facing his old team over the weekend (50:50). Will and Blake take a deeper look at RJ Barrett's usage in the fourth quarter before going around the NBA (1:22:05).The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

The Toronto Raptors are, yet again, a team in the driver's seat at the 2024 NBA Trade Deadline. Last year, instead of selling like many expected, they actually bought by completing the Jakob Poeltl deal. Now, with a trade of Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett for OG Anunoby already complete, the team is 2-0 since that move and still has Pascal Siakam's impending free agency and potential trade status to deal with, Gary Trent Jr.'s impending free agency, and a roster that looks better, but could still use some work. Samson Folk from Raptors Republic joins us and we break down everything, including me pitching him some wild fake trades. Then, we start the show with the Jonathan Kuminga report and what it says about young players, playing time, the NBA at large, and more.

Philip Rossman-Reich of Orlando Magic Daily and Louis Zatzman of Raptors Republic joined Ray and Nick this week to preview the upcoming Week 11 Kings games against the Magic and the Raptors. Additionally, Ray and Nick recap a 2-1 Week 10 to close out 2023 and preview the other Week 11 games.

It's an emergency pod edition of the Raptors Show, as Blake Murphy breaks down reports that OG Anunoby, Precious Achiuwa, and Malachi Flynn have been traded to the New York Knicks for RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickly, and a 2024 second-round pick. He's joined by a number of analysts and writers to break it down from every perspective, including Sportsnet's Michael Grange (6:42), Raptors Show co-host Will Lou (19:02), The Score's Joe Wolfond (53:07), ESPN's Bobby Marks (1:00:54), The Athletic's Eric Koreen (1:02:27), and Raptors Republic's Samson Folk (1:22:44). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Will Lou, Blake Murphy, and Alex Wong recap Toronto's home loss to Denver. Louis Zatzman of Raptors Republic chats about whether Precious Achiuwa would fit into the starting lineup, and more (29:30). Joseph Casciaro and Joe Wolfond of theScore's Pound The Rock podcast discuss potential Pascal and OG trade proposals (50:20). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

This week Host Cathryn Naiker is joined by Raptors Republic's Freddie Rivas to discuss Draymond Green and his indefinite suspension. We talk about his past transgressions, the mental health angle surrounding this situation, and where the Warriors go from here. Then we talk about the bizarre Game ball situation that unfolded at the Bucks-Pacers game. Giannis had 64 points vs rookie Oscar Tshiebwe 1 single point, but his first-ever NBA point. Why does the game ball mean so much to them and is this the beginning of a new Eastern Conference rivalry? Then we look at the NBA landscape and think about who outside the Raptors could make a move this trade deadline. Then in our Raptors Homer moment, we ask simple yet complicated questions "What is going on with the team"? Freddie offers a fresh optimistic perspective and we talk about Scottie emerging as a leader. In our Raptors Hottie Highlight of the week, Cathryn discovered Darko bought a raptors fan in New York a meal, and "Darko Dinners" was born.  Learn more about your ad choices.

This week Host Cathryn Naiker is joined by Raptors Republic's Freddie Rivas to discuss Draymond Green and his indefinite suspension. We talk about his past transgressions, the mental health angle surrounding this situation, and where the Warriors go from here. Then we talk about the bizarre Game ball situation that unfolded at the Bucks-Pacers game. Giannis had 64 points vs rookie Oscar Tshiebwe 1 single point, but his first-ever NBA point. Why does the game ball mean so much to them and is this the beginning of a new Eastern Conference rivalry? Then we look at the NBA landscape and think about who outside the Raptors could make a move this trade deadline. Then in our Raptors Homer moment, we ask simple yet complicated questions "What is going on with the team"? Freddie offers a fresh optimistic perspective and we talk about Scottie emerging as a leader. In our Raptors Hottie Highlight of the week, Cathryn discovered Darko bought a raptors fan in New York a meal, and "Darko Dinners" was born.  Learn more about your ad choices.
