After Action Report

The Raptors took care of the Celtics 122-105. Raptors controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
