In Episode 1365, Sean Woodley is joined by Tony East (Locked On Pacers) to chat about the Toronto Raptors and the Indiana Pacers ahead of their matchup on Wednesday night in Toronto which will be loaded with play-in race implications. Off the top, Sean and Tony dig into the reasons why both teams might be motivated to push for the play-in, and the value of playoff experience versus a slightly better shot at NBA Draft Lottery luck. Next, Tony grills Sean on the latest with the Raptors, including Jakob Poeltl's impact both on the short and long-term outlook for the Raps. Lastly, Sean and Tony discuss the Canadian contingent on the Pacers, from impressive rookies Bennedict Mathurin and Andrew Nembhard to old Raptors friend Oshae Brissett. Will the Pacers have the juice to take down the Raptors if Tyrese Haliburton can't return from injury in time for the game on Wednesday? Or will Toronto's revamped roster be too much for the Pacers to handle? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
