Are the Toronto Raptors rolling out Vision 6'9 again in 2023-24?


Episode 1464


In Episode 1451, Sean Woodley goes solo to discuss the Toronto Raptors very imbalanced roster, and the sneaking feeling that Vision 6'9, once thought to be dead as a team-building philosophy for the Raptors, is in fact very alive and well. Is that a good thing, though? Off the top, Sean digs into why the concept of building a whole roster out of 6'9 guys is actually pretty sound, except for the fact that players with the requisite skills to make offense run smoothly who are also 6'9 are extremely hard to find, even before you factor in the many elements of team building that are out of a front office's control. And yet, here the Raptors are, once again loaded with 10 guys in the 6'7 through 7'0 range and not many guards in support. Next, Sean looks at the logjam at the forward position for the Raptors, hypothesizes on which guys might be in or out of the rotation, and discuss why there are certainly going to be some fun and interesting things about watching this year's Raptors, even if they don't end up being good. Lastly, Sean answers some listener questions about where Chris Boucher fits into the picture, whether Jalen McDaniels should be prioritized ahead of someone like Otto Porter Jr., and some interesting, all-6'9 lineup combos the Raptors might be able to run out.
