Toronto Raptors Mailbag! | In the pooper for Cooper? Best non-Core 4 Raptor in 24-25? TMac vs. Kawhi
In Episode 1683, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic, TSN) to answer a bunch of mailbag questions about a great many Toronto Raptors topics, including goals for the 2024-25 season, key role players on this year’s squad, and an interesting either/or What If debate. Off the top, Sean and Jamar chat about whether they would rather the Raptors have another season from hell but be guaranteed Cooper Flagg at the top of next year’s draft OR have a surprisingly good season and make it all the way to Game 7 of the second round of the playoffs, with Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley very much looking the part of foundational pillars. Next, they tackle questions about which Raptors player outside of their core four of Barnes, Quickley, RJ Barrett and Jakob Poeltl will have the best on/off metrics next season, and where Bruce Brown might be best deployed. Lastly, they dig into a question about three-point improvement: would it be better for Scottie Barnes to take a 5% jump on catch-and-shoot threes, or for Quickley to improve by 5% on short mid-range and rim attempts? Plus, whose departure is the bigger What If in Raptors history: Kawhi Leonard’s, or Tracy McGrady’s?

I think it's simple, Don't tank.
nothing personal woodley but the raptors are gonna be horrible next year. its not tanking if you that bad to loose enough games to get a bottom 6 pick. and yes the bottom 6 picks in this year could be franchise players.
raptors are not even a play in team this year. you look at bottom dwellers alot of them improved and have deeper teams than raptors. go look at blazers roster, they are deeper and have far more talent and better defence than raptors.
That title though… cmon man.
I think we are underselling what Mogbo could be for us next yr from the bench. The more I dig into his gms & history the more I feel that this gut can have a positive impact as a rookie. Not as big as SB whrn he came in but Mogbo had those same intagibles & good skill sets such as connector, high BB IQ, screener, rebounder & a versatile defender.
