After Action Report
The Raptors stunned the Mavericks 106-99. The better team simply showed up tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Raptors lately; Raptors' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
