After Action Report
The Raptors buried the Heat 129-101. The breakneck pace played right into Raptors' hands. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
