In Episode 1488, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Raptors.com, Sportsnet) to talk about the Toronto Raptors' 112-99 win over the Sacramento Kings in Vancouver to open up the preseason on Sunday. Off the top, Sean and Vivek run through their biggest takeaways from the game. Vivek liked the early returns on the Raptors' starting unit and the clear uptick in ball movement. While Sean, while enjoying the increase in ball-movement and intentionality, feels like the core challenge for the Raptors offense this season -- beating switching defenses -- was very much in display. Things could look similar to how they looked last year in terms of offensive process, but that doesn't mean it can't be better and more aesthetically pleasing. Next, Sean and Vivek each share one major overreaction to the preseason opener, both having to do with the Toronto Raptors' starting lineup. Lastly, they run through the Good, the Bad and the Hmmmmmm from the first preseason game. Raptors basketball is back, weeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
