After Action Report
In a track meet, the Raptors fended off the Clippers 106-99. Raptors controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the Clippers. The Clippers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
