Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors
Sports:Basketball
In Episode 1614, Sean Woodley is joined by Joseph Casciaro (The Score, Pound the Rock) to revisit their preseason bold predictions about the Toronto Raptors made the day the 2023-24 season began to check in on just how right or wrong they were. Off the top, they chat about Sean's prediction that the Raptors would be the league's leading transition frequency team -- which they were! -- as well as Cash's prediction that Scottie Barnes would win Most Improved Player. Next, they dig into Sean's proclamation that if Pascal Siakam was traded, it would be to the Golden State Warriors in exchange for Chris Paul, Jonathan Kuminga and Trayce Jackson-Davis (whoops), as well as Joe picking Dennis Schroder to finish the season with more assists per game than Fred VanVleet. Lastly, Sean eats a gigantic bowl of crow after reviewing his prediction that Gradey Dick and Jalen McDaniels would be the Raptors' best on/off-driving two-man lineup, while Joe accepts his culpability for picking the Raptors to finish 3rd in the Atlantic Division. Look man, it was a tough season for everyone around the Raptors. Even the prognosticators.
