Toronto Raptors vs Chicago Bulls Play-in Preview | What’s More Likely? | NBA Play-in Tournament 2023

In Episode 1378, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob preview all angles of the Toronto Raptors’ Eastern Conference Play-in Tournament matchup with the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night with a round of everyone’s favourite Locked On Raptors parlour game: What’s More Likely? Off the top, Sean and Vivek examine whether it’s more likely that Nick Nurse keeps a tight rotation in the single-elimination tilt or if he’ll go a little deeper into his bench to work around some of the matchup questions the Bulls’ guard-heavy play style presents. Next, Sean and Vivek discuss who of Fred VanVleet (guarded by Alex Caruso and/or Patrick Beverley) and DeMar DeRozan (guarded by O.G. Anunoby) is in for a rougher night on the offensive end, before spinning off into all sorts of interesting matchup questions. Who guards Zach Lavine? Will the Raptors need to skew small and play without Jakob Poeltl when the game gets into its most important moments? And where will Chris Boucher and Precious Achiuwa factor in against a Bulls team that is among the league’s best at preventing second-chance opportunities. Lastly, Sean and Vivek dig into the big one: What’s More Likely? A Raptors win, or a Bulls win? Will the matchup problems the Bulls cause in their new-look alignment be too much for the Raptors to handle? Will home court shift the balance in Toronto’s favour? And what about the unknowables, like Scottie Barnes’ propensity for shining under the bright lights? All that and so much more!
