In Episode 1630, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Raptors in 7, Sportsnet) to talk about Toronto Raptors star forward Scottie Barnes and what he needs to improve upon over the course of this off-season going into the 2024-25 NBA season. Off the top, Sean and Vivek chat about why one of the next steps toward stardom for Barnes will entail carrying lineups of which is a part in the same way the league's very best guys do through all sorts of different contexts, as well as Barnes' need to continue building upon his three-point shooting uptick this past season. Next, Sean and Vivek dig into Barnes' need to improve his lateral quickness as a perimeter defender and the positive cascading effects improved perimeter defense for Barnes could have on the team going forward, as well as Barnes' need to rediscover the shooting touch from the short mid-range that he flashed as a rookie, but as struggled with ever since. Lastly, Sean pinpoints Barnes' mastery of the pick-and-roll both as a ball-handler and roll-man as a key piece of the team's long-term outlook, while Vivek chats about Barnes' need to improve his handle to the level of a true primary offensive option.
